Questions & Answers about Ο προϊστάμενος μου είπε ότι αύριο θα έχουμε συνάντηση στο γραφείο.

What exactly does προϊστάμενος mean?

Προϊστάμενος means supervisor, manager, or boss, depending on context.

In this sentence, it most naturally means the boss / the supervisor.

A few useful notes:

• It is masculine singular.
• Here it is in the nominative, because it is the subject of the sentence.
• It is pronounced roughly pro-i-STA-me-nos.

The ϊ is important: it shows that the vowels are pronounced separately.

Why is there an Ο at the beginning?

Ο is the masculine singular definite article, so it means the.

Greek uses the definite article very often, including before professions, roles, and titles when a specific person is meant. So Ο προϊστάμενος is literally the supervisor / the boss.

Does μου mean my or to me here?
