Greek: How to say "....., right?" "....., έτσι δεν είναι;"
Hi there. I'd like to know how Greek-speakers say "...., right?" at the end of their sentence in everyday speech.

For example:

"This is the book you ordered, right?"

Would it be έτσι δεν είναι, or is there another form that is more commonly used?

Thanks!

"Έτσι δεν είναι" is correct. Also "σωστά;", and a very informal way to say it is "ε;"

Either έτσι δεν είναι or just έτσι with a rising tone ;)
