To plan to do something.

🌍

문화적 배경

The term 'Πρόθεση' refers to the preparation of the Holy Gifts. This religious context gives the word a sense of 'sacred preparation' even in secular use. Using 'έχω την πρόθεση' in emails is a sign of respect and professionalism. It shows you aren't just making a casual request but have a structured plan. On Twitter or news comments, people often use 'καλές προθέσεις' (good intentions) sarcastically to criticize politicians who promise much but deliver little. In Greek law, 'δόλος' (intent/malice) is a key concept. 'Πρόθεση' is used to determine if a crime was premeditated or accidental.

자주 묻는 질문

5 질문

Yes, 'μια' (an) sounds like you have one specific intention among many, while 'την' (the) sounds like your primary plan. 'Την' is much more common.

Technically yes, but it's too formal. Just say 'Θα πάω στο σούπερ μάρκετ' or 'Σκοπεύω να πάω'.

It is 'Είχα την πρόθεση να...'. Use this to explain things you planned but didn't do.

Yes, 'προθέσεις' (intentions). For example: 'Ποιες είναι οι προθέσεις του;' (What are his intentions?).

Usually, yes, if followed by a verb. If followed by a noun, you use 'για' (e.g., πρόθεση για συνεργασία).
