Μην πανικοβάλλεσαι αν δεν βρεις αμέσως τη σωστή αίθουσα· θα ρωτήσουμε κάποιον.

Because μην is used for negative commands and for some subjunctive-style structures.

• δεν negates plain statements: Δεν βρίσκω την αίθουσα = I am not finding / I can’t find the room
• μην is used for don’t...: Μην πανικοβάλλεσαι = Don’t panic

So here the speaker is telling someone not to do something, which is why μην is the correct choice.

That is because the verb πανικοβάλλομαι is a middle/passive-form verb with an active meaning.

So:

• πανικοβάλλομαι = I panic
• πανικοβάλλεσαι = you panic

Even though the ending -εσαι looks passive to an English speaker, the meaning here is not passive. It does not mean you are being panicked. It simply means you panic.

In this sentence, μην πανικοβάλλεσαι means don’t panic.

No. This is a very common point of confusion.

βρεις is an aorist subjunctive form of βρίσκω. Here it does not refer to the past. After words like αν, Greek often uses forms that show aspect rather than past time.

So βρεις here means something like:

• find as a single complete event
• not found

That is why αν δεν βρεις means if you don’t find, not if you didn’t find.

Because Greek normally does not use θα after αν in this kind of conditional clause.

English says:

• if you don’t find...

Greek says:

• αν δεν βρεις...

Even though the situation is future-related, Greek does not usually say αν δεν θα βρεις here. That would be ungrammatical in standard Greek.

The future meaning is understood from the whole sentence and especially from the main clause θα ρωτήσουμε.

τη σωστή αίθουσα is in the accusative because it is the direct object of βρεις.

The noun is:

• η αίθουσα = the room / hall nominative
• την αίθουσα or τη αίθουσα in theory, but in real usage with this noun phrase it becomes τη σωστή αίθουσα

The adjective σωστή agrees with αίθουσα in gender, number, and case.

As for τη vs την:

• την is the full accusative feminine article
• the final -ν is often dropped before many consonants, especially before σ

So τη σωστή αίθουσα is completely normal and natural.

Here σωστή means right in the sense of correct or the one you need.

So τη σωστή αίθουσα is:

• the correct room
• the right room

It does not mean right as the opposite of left.

αμέσως means immediately, right away, or at once.

In this sentence, it modifies βρεις:

• αν δεν βρεις αμέσως τη σωστή αίθουσα
• if you don’t find the right room right away

Its position is natural in Greek. Greek word order is fairly flexible, but this placement sounds smooth and idiomatic.

That mark is called the ano teleia in Greek.

It usually works like a strong pause, somewhere between an English semicolon and colon, depending on style.

So here:

• Μην πανικοβάλλεσαι αν δεν βρεις αμέσως τη σωστή αίθουσα· θα ρωτήσουμε κάποιον.

means the writer is separating two closely connected thoughts:

1. Don’t panic if you don’t find the right room right away
2. We’ll ask someone

Because the speaker is including themselves in the solution.

The first part speaks directly to one person:

• Μην πανικοβάλλεσαι
• αν δεν βρεις...

Then the speaker reassures that they will help:

• θα ρωτήσουμε κάποιον
• we’ll ask someone

This switch is very natural in both Greek and English. It gives the sentence a supportive tone.

Because θα ρωτήσουμε suggests one complete action: we’ll ask.

• θα ρωτήσουμε = we will ask
• θα ρωτάμε = we will be asking / we will ask repeatedly

In this situation, the speaker means a single practical step, so θα ρωτήσουμε is the better choice.

κάποιον means someone.

It ends in -ον because it is in the accusative masculine singular, as the direct object of ρωτήσουμε.

You can think of the underlying idea as:

• κάποιον άνθρωπο = some person

In everyday Greek, the masculine form is often used as the default for an unspecified person.

Because Greek often leaves subject pronouns out when the verb ending already shows who the subject is.

For example:

• πανικοβάλλεσαι already tells you it means you
• ρωτήσουμε already tells you it means we

So adding εσύ or εμείς is usually unnecessary unless the speaker wants extra emphasis or contrast.

Yes. As written, it is addressed to one person informally, because of:

• πανικοβάλλεσαι
• βρεις

For plural or polite singular, you would say:

Μην πανικοβάλλεστε αν δεν βρείτε αμέσως τη σωστή αίθουσα· θα ρωτήσουμε κάποιον.

The changes are:

• πανικοβάλλεσαι → πανικοβάλλεστε
• βρεις → βρείτε

The rest can stay the same if the speaker still means we’ll ask someone.
