Breakdown of Η όπτηση προκαλεί συρρίκνωση.
Questions & Answers about Η όπτηση προκαλεί συρρίκνωση.
No. In Greek, Η is the capital form of η, not the English letter H.
Here, Η is the definite article meaning the for a feminine singular noun:
- Η όπτηση = the firing / the baking / the roasting (depending on context)
It is pronounced ee, not aitch.
Η is the feminine singular definite article, equivalent to the in English.
It agrees with όπτηση, which is a feminine noun:
- η όπτηση = the firing
- η συρρίκνωση = the shrinkage
In this sentence, only the first noun has the article, because Greek does not always repeat articles in the same way English would.
