E:

I'm not set up to do Greek letters, but it should be something like
"mathe" with the pronunciation like "MAH-theh" (imperative). I think the more formal form is "manthano" (1st person singular, but I seem to remember "matho". Anyway, I think "mathe" (informal or singular imperative) or perhaps "mathete" (formal or plural imperative) is what you want.

Perhaps a "real" Greek speaker could give you better information, but this is how I remember it from my colloquial and very informal (and mostly self-taught) Greek of many years ago.

Best,

Jack
