O is masculine, η is feminine. Το is neutral. O and η don't actually translate to the word the, it just gives you the gender. Even when we are talking about someone, let's say a woman named Eleni, or a man named George, we say "η Ελένη" or "ο Γιώργος." A lot of times we use το, it's for subjects that could go either way.

Thank you! That's a great explanation. I understand so much better now.

I literally typed in, The dad, The father and it saidi ws wrong. They said the exact same thing!
You can answer either
- the dad
- the father
Pick one. But not both together.
β=v sound, μπ=b sound in the beginnig of the word and mb sound in the middle of the word.
μπ makes the "b" or "mb" sound
β makes the "v" sound
Use the letter that makes the sound you want -- so for "babas", you need μπ, while for "vamvaki" (cotton), you need β.
