ένας

This is the 36th most frequent Greek word.


ένας

"Ένας" means "a" or "one" in English.


Here, "ένας" functions as the indefinite article in Greek, equivalent to 'a' or 'an' in English, used to describe a singular, non-specific entity.

Αυτός είναι ένας καλός άνθρωπος.

He is a good man.


In this case, "ένας" is used to signify the number one, emphasizing a singular quantity.

Χρειάζομαι μόνο ένας να με βοηθήσει.

I only need one person to help me.


Here, "ένας" again functions as an indefinite article, introducing a general or non-specific entity, similar to its role in the first example.

Είναι ένας γιατρός που εργάζεται εδώ.

He is a doctor who works here.
