Questions & Answers about Μπορείς να μου πεις αν το θυροτηλέφωνο δουλεύει ή αν πρέπει να κατέβω στην είσοδο;
Greek often omits subject pronouns because the verb ending already shows who the subject is.
- Μπορείς = you can
- κατέβω = I go down / I should go down in this context
So Greek does not need to say εσύ for you or εγώ for I unless the speaker wants extra emphasis or contrast.
It literally means something like Can you tell me.
Breakdown:
- Μπορείς = you can
- να = a particle used before subjunctive-type verb forms
- μου = to me
- πεις = say / tell
So the structure is:
Μπορείς να μου πεις = Can you tell me
This is a very common Greek way to ask someone for information.
