A1 Collocation خنثی

Είμαι σίγουρος

I am sure

معنی

Expressing certainty about something.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

Greeks often use 'Είμαι σίγουρος' with a hand over the heart to emphasize their sincerity and personal honor (philotimo). In the Cypriot dialect, you might hear 'Είμαι σίουρος' (Ime siouros), which is a local phonetic variation of the standard Greek. In Greek-American communities, 'Είμαι σίγουρος' is one of the most resilient phrases, often used even when other Greek grammar starts to fade. In Greek business, saying 'Είμαι σίγουρος' is expected when presenting data; being too tentative can be interpreted as a lack of preparation.

No, for a safe place use 'ασφαλές μέρος'. 'Σίγουρος' is for certainty.

Both are used, but 'ότι' is more standard and formal.

Simply say 'Δεν είμαι σίγουρος' (m) or 'Δεν είμαι σίγουρη' (f).

Yes! Use the plural: 'Είμαστε σίγουροι'.
