Questions & Answers about Απόψε θα κάνω βιντεοκλήση με τους γονείς μου.

1. What does Απόψε mean exactly, and how is it different from other ways of saying “tonight” in Greek?

Απόψε means “tonight (this evening / later today in the evening)” and is very natural and common.
You can also say:

• σήμερα το βράδυ – literally “today in the evening,” also “tonight,” slightly more neutral/formal.
• το βράδυ – “in the evening / tonight,” but can sound a bit less specific without context.

In most everyday situations, Απόψε and σήμερα το βράδυ are interchangeable when you mean “tonight.”

2. Why is there no word for “I” in Απόψε θα κάνω…? Where is the subject?

Greek usually drops the subject pronoun (like εγώ = I) because the verb ending already shows the subject.
In θα κάνω, the ending -ω tells you it’s 1st person singular, so it already means “I will do/make.”

You could say Εγώ απόψε θα κάνω βιντεοκλήση…, but that would stress “I” (e.g., I will do a video call, not someone else).

3. Why do we use θα κάνω to mean “I will have a video call”? Why the verb κάνω?
