Questions & Answers about Επιθεωρώ το αμάξωμα.

What does Επιθεωρώ mean, and what form is it?

Επιθεωρώ is the 1st person singular present tense form of the verb επιθεωρώ, meaning I inspect or I examine.

So in this sentence, the subject is understood as I:

• Επιθεωρώ = I inspect

Greek often leaves out the subject pronoun when the verb ending already makes the subject clear.

Why is there no word for I in the sentence?

Greek usually does not need subject pronouns like I, you, he, she unless you want emphasis or contrast.

The ending -ώ in Επιθεωρώ already tells you the subject is I.

Compare:

• Επιθεωρώ = I inspect
• Εγώ επιθεωρώ = I inspect / I am the one inspecting (more emphasis)

So leaving out εγώ is completely normal.
