Review Summary

  • o/i/to + noun
  • enas/mia/ena + noun

자주 하는 실수

You used a masculine article for a feminine noun. Always check the ending of the noun.

Wrong: o γυναίκα
정답: η γυναίκα

You used the neuter indefinite article for a masculine noun. Remember: enas (masc), mia (fem), ena (neut).

Wrong: ένα άντρας
정답: ένας άντρας

The article must match the noun's gender. 'Φίλος' is masculine, so it needs 'ο'.

Wrong: το φίλος
정답: ο φίλος

자주 묻는 질문 (6)

Because Greek has three genders.
No, that is grammatically incorrect.
It's a grammatical feature, not biological. It helps organize the language.
Yes, like 'η οδός' (feminine). Always check the dictionary.
Greek nouns have gender and case, so the article must match them.
Look at the noun ending: -ος (M), -α/η (F), -ο/ι (N).
