How do you say "I am" or "I did" in Greek? Not είμαι, but in indignant response to someone, like this: -Do your homework! -I am! or -Go take a shower. -I already did! or -(sarcastically) Oh, so your dog is really special./Your dog isn't that special. -She is!/Yes, she is! It's hard to think of examples that say exactly what I mean, but I hope you understand.

Hi! Even though "I am" is " είμαι", and "I did" is ”έκανα" in typical translation, sometimes the answer from English to Greek differ according to the question, mainly because after "I am" follows a verb. For example, -Are you okay?(Είσαι καλά?) -Have you done your homework(έκανες τα μαθήματά σου?) -Yes, I am( Ναι,είμαι) -I am doing it right now(τα κάνω τώρα) Hope I helped you a bit

If you want to agree on something someone says to you, you can repeat the verb they use in a past, present or future tense. It depends on what you want to say. E.g verb "κάνω" -Κάνε τα μαθήματά σου -Τα κάνω (present) -Τα έκανα (past) ή -Θα τα κάνω (future) If you want to disagree you can use "δεν" -Κάνε τα μαθήματά σου -Δεν τα κάνω (present) -Δεν τα έκανα (past) ή -Δεν θα τα κάνω (future) I hope it is clear.
