I speak Greek.
Ανάγκη = need/necessity.
Φιλοξενία = hospitality.
Πνεύμα = spirit. Ok, it may mean breath, too, but only in songs or poems. If might raise some eyebrows in everyday speech. Usual word for breath = ανάσα or more uncommonly, πνοή.
Σωφροσύνη = prudence? That's the only one that doesn't translate perfectly.
For words that really don't translate (to English at least) look up καημός, παλικάρι, μεράκι .
