Resolved questions
I'm looking for phrases in Greek to use when your thinking of what to say. To give you more time.

In English if I was thinking or pausing I could say;
"Well"
"you see"
"the thing is"
"you know"

I was wondering if there are any useful "pause for time" words in Greek

Thanks!

Ben
