Questions & Answers about Η εταιρεία θα με αποζημιώσει.

What does Η mean here?

Η means the. It is the feminine singular definite article in the nominative case.

So:

• η εταιρεία = the company

It is capitalized here only because it is the first word of the sentence.

Why is εταιρεία feminine?

In Greek, every noun has a grammatical gender: masculine, feminine, or neuter. Εταιρεία happens to be feminine, so it takes the feminine article η.

This does not mean the company is biologically female. It is just a grammatical category.

You will often need to learn a noun together with its article:

• η εταιρεία = the company
• η πόλη = the city
• η ιδέα = the idea

What does θα do in this sentence?

Θα is the particle that usually marks the future in Modern Greek.

So:

• αποζημιώνει = compensates / is compensating
• θα αποζημιώσει = will compensate

Greek does not usually form the future by changing the verb the way English adds will. Instead, it commonly uses θα + verb form.

Why is με before the verb?
