Questions & Answers about Αυτό το διαμέρισμα είναι πολύ μεγάλο για εμάς.
In Greek, when you use a demonstrative like αυτό (this), you normally keep the definite article in front of the noun as well:
- αυτό το διαμέρισμα = this apartment
- εκείνο το διαμέρισμα = that apartment
So the usual pattern is:
αυτό / εκείνο / αυτός / αυτή + ο / η / το + noun
Leaving the article out (αυτό διαμέρισμα) sounds wrong or, at best, very unnatural in modern Greek in this kind of sentence.
Greek words that go together must agree in gender, number, and case.
- διαμέρισμα (apartment) is a neuter noun.
- The demonstrative αυτό (this) is in the neuter form to match διαμέρισμα.
- The article το is also neuter singular, matching διαμέρισμα.
- The adjective μεγάλο (big) is neuter singular, again matching διαμέρισμα.
So the whole noun phrase lines up grammatically:
- αυτό (neuter)
- το (neuter)
- διαμέρισμα (neuter)
- μεγάλο (neuter)
