Questions & Answers about Έστειλα πρόσκληση σε όλους τους συγγενείς για τη γιορτή.
In Greek, the subject pronoun is usually dropped because the verb ending already shows the person.
- Έστειλα = “I sent”
The -α ending here clearly marks 1st person singular (I).
You would add Εγώ only for emphasis or contrast, for example:
- Εγώ έστειλα πρόσκληση… = I sent an invitation (not someone else).
Έστειλα is the aorist (simple past) of στέλνω (“to send”).
- Έστειλα πρόσκληση… = I sent an invitation (completed action in the past).
- Στέλνω πρόσκληση… = I am sending / I send an invitation (present, ongoing or habitual).
The aorist is used here because the speaker is talking about one completed event in the past, not an ongoing process.
