"This is my house."

Translation: Αυτό είναι το σπίτι μου.

[AnCatDubh]

What’s the difference between σπίτι and οίκος?

[Helena529794]

If you google οίκος you'll just find pictures of the White House. I think it's also used for noble families.

[AnCatDubh]

So it’s kinda like ‘manor’ or ‘estate’?

[greekcube]

Why is the definite article "το" used in this instance. I get confused over when to and not to use definite articles in greek in general

[Taylor107291]

I believe the definite article is used when speaking of possessions. I remember it as whatever someoneone posesses, its a specifc, definite, "this" thing as opposed to "a" thing in general.
