Questions & Answers about Νιώθω περήφανος για τα ελληνικά μου σήμερα.

Why is περήφανος masculine? What if the speaker is a woman?

In Greek, adjectives agree with the gender and number of the subject, even if the subject pronoun (εγώ) is omitted.

• Νιώθω περήφανος… = I (a man) feel proud…
• Νιώθω περήφανη… = I (a woman) feel proud…
• Νιώθω περήφανο… = I feel proud… (neuter; could be used for a neuter noun, or sometimes by/for non‑binary people depending on context)

The subject εγώ is understood from the verb νιώθω (1st person singular), so the adjective περήφανος must match the speaker’s gender:

• A male speaker: Νιώθω περήφανος…
• A female speaker: Νιώθω περήφανη…

Why is there no εγώ ("I") in the sentence?

Greek usually drops subject pronouns because the verb ending already shows the person:

• νιώθω = I feel
• νιώθεις = you feel
• νιώθει = he/she/it feels

So εγώ νιώθω περήφανος… is grammatically correct, but εγώ is normally added only for emphasis or contrast:

• Εγώ νιώθω περήφανος, όχι ντροπή.
  I feel proud, not shame.

In neutral statements, it is more natural to say simply:

• Νιώθω περήφανος για τα ελληνικά μου σήμερα.

Why do we use για here? In English it’s "proud of", not "proud for".
