Questions & Answers about Νομίζω ότι το κίτρινο φούτερ ταιριάζει με τα μαύρα αθλητικά σου.
Why is ότι used after Νομίζω?
Ότι means that and introduces a clause after verbs like νομίζω (I think).
So:
- Νομίζω ότι... = I think that...
Just like in English, that can sometimes be omitted in translation, but in Greek ότι is very common and natural here. You may also see πως used in the same way in everyday Greek:
- Νομίζω ότι...
- Νομίζω πως...
Both mean the same thing here.
Why is it το κίτρινο φούτερ and not just κίτρινο φούτερ?
Greek usually uses the definite article more often than English, and here το means the.
So:
- το φούτερ = the sweatshirt / hoodie
- το κίτρινο φούτερ = the yellow sweatshirt / hoodie
In this sentence, the speaker is referring to a specific item, so το is expected.
Why is the adjective κίτρινο in that form?
