Pavlos have it right.
in reply to a message by Pavlos
Pavlos already gave the correct etymology of Tartaros, from the verb "tartarizo". Furthermore, the verb "tartarizo" (meaning "to shiver of cold") is sound formatted, imitating the rattling sound (tartartartartar) that the teeth make when they hit each other in ones mouth when he is shivering of cold.
Consequently, the verb "tartarizo" gave the name Tartaros, a perfect name for a Greek mythology character that is the personification of the shaky cold abyss.
"Until the day that an ancient inscription is found with the name "Alexandrovski" (or "Alexandrev" or "Alexandrov") written on it instead of "ALEXANDROS", true Macedonia and true Macedonians will remain Greek, as they always were."
