"fact"

Translation: γεγονός

[HorseLuisCodep]

Why is the gamma in the beginning pronounced like a y???

[DylanThe]

what other way can I use "γεγονός¨
?

[Miro100252]

You said typo but the app simply didn't convert the σ to an ending

[D_..]

ς is a different key on Greek keyboards, it's the W key.

[LauraValen259464]

When do you use "ς" and when "σ"? I'm confused because they make the same sound. I'd appreciate the help

[NRPL123]

You probably figured it out by now, but they are the same letter-- ς is used only at the end of a word, and σ is used at the beginning or middle of words
