κατά πόσο
Asking to What Extent
Κατά πόσο introduces a question about extent or whether a claim holds to a relevant degree.
How It Works
Κατά πόσο introduces a question about extent or whether a claim holds to a relevant degree.
It is common in careful discussion and can introduce an indirect question. It does not automatically mean a precise numerical amount; the relevant scale comes from the topic.
