Ποιός θα αναλάβει την τάξη σας;

English Translation

Who will take charge of their class?

The Greek word “αναλάβει” (analávei) comes from the verb “αναλαμβάνω” (analambáno), which means “to take up,” “to undertake,” or “to assume.”

Breaking it down:

  • The prefix “ανα-” (ana-) generally means “up,” “again,” or “back.”
  • The root “λαμβάνω” (lambáno) means “to take” or “to receive.”

Thus, “αναλαμβάνω” literally conveys the idea of taking something up again or taking on a responsibility. The form “αναλάβει” is the third person singular future tense of the verb, meaning “he/she/it will take up” or “he/she/it will undertake.”

This word is commonly used in various contexts, such as assuming a role, responsibility, or task.
