"The girl and you"

Translation: Το κορίτσι και εσύ

[Najalix]

Used κοριτσι and it said "wrong: κοπελα" but i've only see κοριτσι before and it seems to be the same in the description, why did it say wrong?

[ClausWil]

Why το and not η?

[RrxI7]

Κορίτσι is neuter and so takes the neuter article. Η is the feminine article.

[GaiusSolitaire]

I don't understand how a girl can be neuter

[tre_mojosa]

Yes, this is extremely stupid. Not sorry.

[Prphct]

We're talking about grammatical gender, mot natural gender. Grammatical gender doesn't have to correspond to natural gender, though it may at times.

Why isnt it η κορίτσι? Το denotes a masculine noun

[nanuK-_-]

Το denotes a neutral noun, ο denotes a masculine noun. κορίτσι is neutral

I used σου for you, but was told it should have been συ. Why is this? Object v. subject perhaps? Thanks.

[stuartjr341]

Ah, εσυ v. συ. Okay, subject v. object. ☺

This asked to translate the sentence into Greek, but when it gave the answer it showed all english letters...

[MaiA.Jaber]

What wrong word?

[cyn742151]

What is the difference between Εγώ and Εσύ?

[kanzaamanda]

εγώ means I and εσύ means you

[Christeeeel]

Why isn't it ενα κορίτσι? I thought you had to use ενα before the word girl?

[Todd51847]

I think 'ένα κορίτσι ' translates to 'a girl'. While 'το κορίτσι ' means 'the girl"

How can you know which letter has an accent in a word and which has not?

[troll1995]

It's the part of the word where you raise your voice. For example, if English had accents with the same notion: peqúliar, cóffee, clímate, exáctly, óffering, chíldren, lóvely, cáncel, compláin.
