Learning the Greek Pronouns displayed below is vital to the language. Greek pronouns include personal pronouns (refer to the persons speaking, the persons spoken to, or the persons or things spoken about), indefinite pronouns, relative pronouns (connect parts of sentences) and reciprocal or reflexive pronouns (in which the object of a verb is being acted on by verb's subject).
In English personal pronouns are (I, you, he, she, it, we, you, they), and (me, you, him, her, it, us, you, them), In Greek, the personal pronouns are:
εγώ… (I), εσύ… (you), αυτός… (he), αυτή… (she), αυτό... (ιτ)
εμείς… (we), εσείς… (they masc.), αυτοί… (they fem.) αυτές... (), αυτά ()
Examples: εγώ μαθαίνω (I learn), εσύ μαθαίνεις (you learn), αυτός μαθαίνει (he learns), αυτή μαθαίνει (she learns), αυτό μαθαίνει (it learns), εμείς μαθαίνουμε (we learn), εσείς μαθαίνετε (you learn), αυτοί μαθαίνουν (they learn [masculine]), αυτές aprenden (they learn [feminine]), αυτά aprenden (they learn [neuter]).
