μούτσος - λοστρόμος

cabin boy (moutsos)  - boatswain... Sometimes I'm not sure it's worth learnign boat terms because I don't know what they meanin  English either!

Months later I heard moutsos in this song and was pretty sure it meant cabin boy, but wasn't sure...

  1. "Moutsos" is the inexperienced sailor, as in first time on a boat. Truth be told, learning the seaman's lingo is a task unto itself. Also, a fun way to put some spice in your everyday conversations, if used wisely. And who knows, you may find yourself sailing on a boat one day.
