Common Nouns in Greek grammar are general words for people, animals, places, things, or ideas. Unlike proper nouns, they don’t name specific people or places. They are one of the fundamental elements of the Greek sentences as they define or identify something or someone. Grammatical gender, number, and case are encoded in these nouns. The Greek language has three genders: male, female, and neuter. Learning these nouns is essential to effectively communicate in Greek.
