Questions & Answers about Μόλις γύρισα σπίτι, η ιστοσελίδα δούλεψε κανονικά και η σύνδεση έγινε πολύ καλύτερη.

Why does the sentence start with Μόλις? What exactly does it mean here?

Here Μόλις means as soon as or once.

So:

Μόλις γύρισα σπίτι = As soon as I got home / Once I got home

This is a very common Greek structure:

• Μόλις
  • past verb = as soon as ...
• It can also mean just in other contexts, but here it clearly introduces something that happened immediately after something else.

So the idea is:

1. I got home.
2. Right after that, the website worked normally and the connection improved.

Why is it γύρισα and not something like γύριζα?

Γύρισα is the aorist form of γυρίζω, and here it means I returned / I came back.

Greek often uses:

• aorist for a completed event
• imperfect for an ongoing, repeated, or habitual action

So:

• γύρισα σπίτι = I got home / I returned home → one completed event
• γύριζα σπίτι would suggest something like I was heading home or I used to return home, depending on context

In this sentence, the speaker is talking about a single completed moment, so γύρισα is the natural choice.

Why is it γύρισα σπίτι without an article? Why not στο σπίτι?
