PREFACE TO THE SEC50ND EDITION.
The following pages are the result of an attempt to supply what
was believed to be a desideratum in the list of Greek text-books ; viz.
a grammar which should be portable and simple enough to be put into
the hands of the beginner, and which should yet be sufficiently scien-
6fic and complete to accompany him through his whole course. The
▼olume from which the elements of a language are first learned be-
comes to the student a species of mnemonic tables, and cannot be
changed in the course of his study without a material derangement
of those associations upon which memory essentially depends. The
femDiar remark, *' It must be remembered that, if the grammar be the
first book put into the learner's hands, it should also be the last to
leave them,^' though applying most happily to grammatical study in
general, was made by its accomplished author with particular refer-
ence to the manual used by the student.
In the preparation of this work, the routine of daily life has obliged
me to keep constantly in view the wants of more advanced studentu ;
and, for their sake, an attempt has been made to investigate the prin-
dples of the language more deeply, and illustrate its use more fully,
than has been usual m grammatical treatises, even of far greater size.
At the same time, no pains have been spared to meet the wants of the
beiginner, by a studious simplicity of method and expression, and by
the reduction of the most important principles to the form of concise
rules, easy of retention and convenient for citation.' Many valuable
works in philology fail of attaining the highest point of utility, through
a eumbrousness of form, burdensome alike to the understanding and
UtC memory of the learner. They have been the armor of Saul to the
youthful David. I have not, however, believed that I should consult,
the advantage even of the beginner by a false representation of the
language, or by any departure from philosophical accuracy of state-
ment or propriety of arrangement. Truth is always better than fals^
bood, and science than empiricism.
To secure, so far as might be, the double object of the work, it haa
I constructed upon the following plan.

nr PREFACS.
Firat, to state the usage of the language in comprehennve rales
and condensed tables, to be impiinted upon the memory of the student.
For convenient examples of the care with which brevity and simplicity
have been here studied, the reader will permit me to refer him to the
rules of syntax, as presented to the eye at a single view in ^ 64, and
to the elementary tables of inflection and formation.
Secondly, to explain the usage of the language, and trace its Am-
tarical development, as fully as the limits allowed to the work, and the
present state of philological science, would permit. The student whc
thinks wishes to know, not only what is true, but why it is true ; and
to the philosophical mind, a single principle addressed to the reason
is often like the sUver cord of JBolus, confining a vast number of facts,
which otherwise, like the enfranchised winds, are scattered far and
wide beyond the power of control.
Thirdly, to illustrate the use of the language by great fulness of
remark and exemplification. In these remarks and examples, as well
as in the more general rules and statements, I have designed to keep
myself carefully within the limits of Attic usage, as exhibiting the
language in its standard form, except when some intimation is given
to the contrary; believing that the grammarian has no more right
than the author to use indiscriminately, and without notice, the
▼ocabulary, forms, and idioms of different ages and communities, —
" A party-color'd dre«
Of patch'd and pya-btU'd languages."
The examples of syntax, in order that the student may be assured
in regard to their genuineness and sources, and be able to examine
them in their connection, have been all cited from classic authors In
the precise words in which they occur, and with references to the places
where they may be found. In accordance with the general plan of the
work, these examples have been mostly taken firom the purest Attio
writers, beginning with .^^hylus, and ending with JSschines. It
was also thought, that the practical value of such examples might be
greatly enhanced to the student by selecting a single author, whose
works, as those of a model-writer, should be most frequently resorted
to ; and especially, by selecting for constant citation a single work of
this author, which could be in the hands of every student as a com-
panion to his grammar, in which he might consult the passages re-
ferred to, and which might be to him, at the same time, a text-book
in reading, and a model in writing, Greek. In making the choice, I
eould not hesitate in selecting, among authors, Xenophon, and among
his writings, the Anabasis. References also abound in the Etymology,
!iiit ehiefly in respect to peculiar and dialectic forms.

PREFACE. V
llie sabject of euphonic laws and changes has reoeiTed a higer
dan of attention than is usual in works of this kind, but not laigei
dMm I lek compelled to bestow, in treating of a language,
" Whose law was heavenly beauty, and whose breath
EniapturiBg mosk."
The student wiU allow me to commend to his special notice two
fmnciides of eztensire use in the explanation of Greek forms ; yii.
tiie precession of vowels (i. e. the tendency of vowels, in the progress
of language, to pass from a more open to a closer sound ; see §§ 28,
S9, 44, 86, 93, 118, 123, 259, &c.), and the correspondence be-
tween the consonants v and a, and the vowels a and 8 (§§ 34, 46./},
50, 66-58, 60, 63. R., 84, 100. 2, 105, 109, 132, 179, 181, 200, 201,
213, 248./, 300, &c.).
In treating of Greek etymology, i have wished to avoid every thing
like aibitraiy formation ; and, instead of deducing one form from an-
other by empirical processes, which might often be quite as well re-
versed, I have endeavoured, by rigid andysis, to resolve all the forms
mto tlieir elements. The old method of forming the tenses of the
Greek veib one finmi another (compared by an excellent grammarian
to *' The House &at Jack built "), is liable to objection, not only on
account of its complexity and multiplication of arbitrary rules, but yet
more on account of the great number of imaginary forms which it re-
quires the student to suppose, and which often occupy a place in his
memory, to the exclusion of the real forms of the language. To cite
but a siBgle case, the second aorist passive, according to this method,
is formed from ike second aorist active, although it is a general rule
of the language, that verbs which have the one tense want the other
($ 255. /S). • Nor is the method which makes the theme the foundation
of all the other forms free from objection, dther in declension or in
conjugation. This method not only requires the assistance of many
imagmary nominatives and presents, but it often inverts the order of
ftature, by deriving the simpler form from the more complicated, and
commits a species of grammatical anachronism, by making the later
form the origin of the earlier. See §§ 84, 100, 256. V., 265. la
the following grammar, all the forms axe immediately referred to the
root, and the analysis of the actual, as obtained from classic usage,
takes the place both of the metempsychosis of the obsolete, and of the
metamorphosis of the ideal.
Those parts of Greek Grammar of which I at first proposed to form
a separate vdume, the Dialects, the History of Greek Inflection, the
Formation of Words, and Versifieaftion, I have concluded, with the

To accomplish this object within moderate limits of size and expense,
a very condensed mode of printing has been adopted, giving to the
volume an unusual amount of matter in proportion to its size. I thank
my printers, that, through their skill and care, they have shown this
to be consistent with so much typographical clearness and beauty. It
has also been found necessary to reserve for a separate treatise those
parts of the first edition which were devoted to General Gramwar^
and which it was at first proposed to include in the present edition aa
an appendix. I submit to this necessity with the lees reluctancey
because a systematic attention to the principles of Genei^ Grammy
ought not to be deferred till the study of the Greek, unless, in accord-
ance with the judicious advice of some distinguished scholars, this
should be the first language learned ailer our own ; and beeaose the
srish has been expressed, that these parts might be published separ-
^ly for the use of those who were not engaged in a eourse of clltssical

PREFACE TO THE TABLES.
Tbi following tables hare been prepared as part of a Greek Gnnn
mar. They are likewise published separately, for the greater con\ : i*
iencc and economy in their use. The advantages of ^'Tabular vr^
rangement are too obvious to require remark ; nor is it less obvm...
that tables are consulted and compared with greater ease when priiiirn
together, than when scattered throughout a volume.
The principles upon which the Tables of Paradigms have been ct.i.
•ttrucled, are the following : —
I. To avoid needless repetition. There is a certain ellipsis in gra:ii
matical tables, as well as in discourse, which relieves not only \Ut ■
material instruments of the mind, but the mind itself, and which ;r>
sists alike the understanding and the memory. When the student \.'m
learned that, in the neuter gender, the nominative, accusative, Htnf
▼oeative are always the same, why, in each neut^ paradigm thai fi*
fltodies, ncist his eye and mind be taxed with the examination of nut:
forms instead of three? why, in his daily exercises in declensiu.).
must his tongue triple its labor, and more than triple the weariness «>.
the teacher^s ear? With the ellipses in the following tables, the p:p
adigms of neuter nouns contain only eight forms, instead of the tivt/r.
which are usually, and the fifteen which are sometimes, given; atui
the paradigms of participles and of adjectives similarly declined cont:i!^
only twenty-two forms, instead of the usual thirty-six or forty-Jiv^
See 114.
n. 7b give the forms just as they appear upon the Greek pane .
that is, without abbreviation and without hyphens, A dissected an i
abbreviated mode of printing the paradigms exposes the young stud. w.
to mistake, and familiarizes the eye, and of course the mind, with
fragments, instead of complete forms. If these fragments were s* j
arated upon analytical principles, the evil would be less ; but they h i>
usually cut off just where convenience in printing may direct, so ^h-i'
they contain, sometimes a part of the affix, sometimes the whole z^w-
«nd sometimes the affix with a part of the root. Hyphens are useiai

in the analysis of forms, but a table of paradigms se6ms not to be the
most appropriate place for them. In the following tables, the affixes
are giyen by themselves, and the paradigms are so arranged in col-
umns, that the eye of the student will usually separate, at a glance,
the root from the affix.
in. To represent the language according to its actual use, and not
according to the theories or fancies of the Alexandrine and Byzantine
grammarians. Hence, for example,
1. The first perfect active imperative, which has no existence it
pure writers, has been discarded.
2. For the imaginary imperative forms lOTa&iy Ti&fjiy dido^t
diUvv&i^ have been substituted the actual forms mjti}, t/^m, dldov^
ddxvv,
3. Together with analogical but rare forms, have been given the
usual forms, which in many grammars are noticed only as exceptions
or dialectic peculiarities. Thus, flovXsvhmaap and ^ovXtvovitav^
fiovXivoaig and flovUvaHag, ifls/iovXfvxsiaav and ifisl^ovXsvxfaap
(^ 34) ; fiovXevia&waav and fiovXevda&wPy fiovXsv^Biiioav and fiov
Xiv^sUv (Tf 35) ; hl&tjv and id&ovv (Tf 60) ; ^g and ^a&a^ sof
Tffi and IWai (^ 55).
4. The second future active and middle, which, except aa a eupho-
nic form of the first future, is purely imaginary, has been wholly
rejected.
IV. To distinguish between regular and irregular usage. What
student, from the common paradigms, does not receive the impression,
sometimes never corrected, that the second perfect and pluperfect , the
second aorist and future, and the third future belong as regularly to
the Greek verb, as the first tenses bearing the same name ; when, in
point of fact, the Attic dialect, even including poetic usage, presents
only about fifty verbs which have the second perfect and pluperfect ,
eighty-five, which have the second^ aorist active ; fifty, which have the
second aorist and future passive ; and forty, which have the second
aorist middle ? The gleanings of all the other dialects will not double
these numbers. Carmichael, who has given us most fully the statis-
tics of the Greek verb, and whose labors deserve all praise, has
gathered, from all the dialects, a list of only eighty-eight verbs which
have the second perfect, one hundred and forty-five which have the
second aorist active, eighty-four which have the second aorist passive,
and fifty-eight which have the second aorist middle. And, of hit

flatalogne of nearly eight hundred verbs, embracing the most commoB
▼erbs of the language, only fi%-fiTe have the third future, and, in
the Attic dialect, only twenty-eight.
To some there may appear to be an impiety in attacking the vener-
erable shade of n/Tirw, but alas ! it is little more than a shade, and,
with all my early and long cherished attachment to it, I am forced,
after examination, to ezdaim, in the language of Electra,
'Ayr) (piXreiritt
and to ask why, in an age which professes such devotion to tn;ith, a
false representation of an irregular verb should be still set forth aa
the paradigm of regular conjugation, and made the Procrustes' bed
to which all other verbs must be stretched or pruned. The actual
future of Ti/Tiro) is not rvipat, but rvTirifaof, the perfect passive is both
thvfi/juxi and isxvnjTjfjim^ the aorists are in part dialectic or poetic,
the first and second perfect and pluperfect active are not found in
classic Grreek, if, indeed, found at all, and the second future active
and middle are the mere figments of grammatical fency. And yet
all the regular verbs in the language must be gravely pronounced
defective, because they do not conform to this imaginary model.
In the following tables, the example of Kuhner has been followed,
in selecting /iovXfvat as the paradigm of regular conjugation. This
verb is strictly regular, it glides smoothly over the tongue, is not lia-
ble to be mispronounced, and presents, to the eye, the prefixes, root,
and affixes, with entire distinctness throughout. This is followed by
shorter paradigms, in part merely synoptical, which exhibit the dif>
ferent classes of verbs, ^with their varieties of formation.
From the common paradigms, what student would hesitate, in writ-
ing Greek, to employ the form in -lis&ov^ little suspecting that it \a
only a variety of the fhrst person dual, so exceedingly rare, that the
learned Elmsley (perhaps too hastily) pronounced it a mere invention
of the Alexandrine grammarians? ^ The teacher who meets with it in
his recitation-room may almost call his class, as the crier called the
Roman people upon the celebration of the secular games, ** to gaze
upon that which they had never seen before, and would never see
again." In the secondary tenses of the indicative, and in the op-
tative, this form does not occur at all ; and, in the remaining tenses,
there have been found only five examples, two of which are quoted
by Athensns from a word-hunier (ofo/nxTodifpa;), whose aflectation
ho is ridiculing, while the three classical examples are all poetic, oo-

tuning , one in Homer (II. ^. 485), and the other two in Sophoclet
(El. 950 and Phil. 1079). And yet, in the single paradigm ci
tvntiOy as I learned it in my boyhood, this " needless Alexandrine, "
** Which, like a wounded snake, drags its slow length along, "
occurs no fewer than ^wenty-six times, that is, almost nine times at
often as in the whole range of the Greek classics.
With respect to the manner in which these tables should be used
80 much depends upon the age and attainments of the student, that
no directions could be given which might not require to be greatly
modified in particular cases. I would, however, recommend,
1. That the paradigms should not be learned en masse, but gradu-
ally, in connection with the study of the principles and rules of tfie
grammar, and with other exercised.
2. That some of the paradigms should rather be used for reference,
than formally committed to memory. It will be seen at once, that
some of them have been inserted merely for the sake of exhibiting
differences of accent, or individual peculiarities.
3. That, in learning and consulting the paradigms, the student
should constantly compare them with each other, with the tables of
terminations, and with the rules of the grammar.
4. That the humble volume should not be dismissed from service,
tiU the paradigms are impressed upon the tablets of the memory as
legibly as upon the printed page, — till they have become so familiar
to the student, that whenever he has occasion to repeat them, ** the
words,'* in the expressive language of Milton, " like so many nimble
and airy servitors, shall trip about him at coinmanJi, and in well-
ordered files, as he would wish, fall aptly into their own places."
In the present edition, the Tables of Inflection have been enlarged
by the addition of the Dialectic Forms, the Analysis of the Affixes,
the Changes in the Root of the Verb, &c. Tables of Ligatures, of
Derivation, of Pronominal Correlatives, of the Rules of Sjmtax, and
of Fonns of Analysis and Parsing, have also been added. Som«
references have been made to sections in the Grammar.

11. ETYMOLOGY.
^ 4* Remarks. I. To avoid needless repetition, alike burdensome
lo teaclier and pupil, and to accustom the student early to the application
of cule, the tables of paradigms have been constructed with the following
edipses^ whifch will be at once supplied firom general rules.
1. In ihe paradigms of dkclihsioii, the Voc. sing, is omitted whenever
It has the same form with the Nom., and the following cases are oiqitted
throughout (see § 80) ;
u ) The f^oc. pLur.y because it is always the same with the Nom.
/9.) The Dtik. dualj because it is always the same with the Gen,.
/.) The jScc. and Koc. dual^ because they aj-e always the saino with
the Noin*
d.) The jIcc and Voc. neut.j in all the numbers, because they are al-
ways the same with the Nom.
2. In the paradigms of adjectives, and of words similarly inflected,
the Jfeuter is omitted in the Gen. and Dot. of all the numbers, and in the
jYom,dwU; because in these cases it never differs from the Masculine
(§ 130. «).
3. In the paradigms of conjuoatioii, the 1st Pers. dudl is omitted
throughout, as having the same form with the 1st Pers. plur., and the 3d
Pwrs. dMU if omitted whenev^ it has the same ibnn with the 24 Pen.
dual, that is, in the primary tenses of the Indicative, and in the Subjunc-
tive (I 212. 2). For the form in -^c^o», whose emptv shade has been so
multiplied by grammarians, and forced to stand, for idle show, in the rank
and file of numbers and persons, see § 212. N.
4. The compound forms of the Perfect passive bubjuhctivb and
OPTATIVE are omitted, as belonging rather to Syntax than to inflection
§234,637).
II. The regular formation of the tenses is exhibited in the table (IT 28),
which may be thus read ; " The tense is formed from the root by
atiixing ," or, " by prefixing and affixing (or, in the nude
l>rm, )." In the application of this table, the forms of the root
must be distinguished, if^it has moie thga a single form (§ 254).
III. In the table of translation (U JiS), the form of tlie verb must, of
course, be adapted to the number and person of the pronoun ; thus, / am
p'anmng^ thou art ■planning^ he is planning^ &4i. For the middle voice,
rhanae the forms of ";»7an" into the corresponding forms of " c/«/tfr-
etaie ' ; and, for the passive voice, into the corresponding forms of " be
planned"
IV. The Dialectic Forms^ for the sake of distinction, are imifbrmlj
printed in smaller type. In connection with these forms, the abbrevia
tions JEo\ and y£. denote iGolic ; Alex., Alexandrine; Att., Attic,
U(bot. and B., BoBotic ; Comm , Common ; Dor. and D , Doric ; Ep. and
B , Rpic ; Hel , Hellenistic; Ion. and I., Ionic; Iter, and It, iterative;
O., Old ; Poet and P.. Poetic.
V. A star (*) in the tables denotes that an affix or a form is wantin|f.
Parentheses are sometimes used to inck>se unusual, donhtfiil, peculiar, or
f<iipplement.'try foriiis. In ITII 2U, 30, the k and *<^nr the tease-signs, as
dropped in tlif» srrond Uiiar.s (§ 1!)0 II ), arc scpnrHted by n hyphen from
the rest of th^ affi v.

INTRODUCTION.
^ 1 • Thb Ancient Greeks were divided into three principal
races ; the Ionic, of which the Attic was a branch, the Doric
and the MoWc, These races spoke the same general language
but with many dialectic peculiarities.
The Ancient Greek Languaob (commonly called simply
the Greek) has been accordingly divided by grammarians into
four principal Dialects, the Attic, the Ionic, the Doric, and
the iEoLia Of these the Attic and Ionic were far the most
refined, and had far the greatest unity within themselves. The
Doric and JEkAic were not only much ruder, but, as the dialects
of races widely extended, and united by no common bond of
litemture, abounded in local diversities. Some of the varieties
of the Doric or iEolic were separated from each other by dif-
ferences scarcely less marked than those which distinguished
them in common from the other dialects. Of the iEolic, the
principal varieties were the Lesbian, the Boeotian, and the
Thessalian. The Doric,' according as it was more or less
removed from the Attic and Ionic, was characterized as the
stricter or the milder Doric ; the former prevailing in the La-
conic, Tarentine, Cretan, Cyrenian, and some other varieties ;
the latter in the Corinthian, Syracusan, Megarian, Delphian,
Rhodian, and some others.
^ 9» The Groek colonies upon the coast of Asia Minor and
the adjacent islands, from various causes, took the lead of the
mother country in refinement; and the first development of
Greek literature which secured permanence for its productions,
was among the Asiatic lonians. This development was Epic
Poetry, and we have, doubtless, its choicest strains remaining
to us in the still unsurpassed Homeric poems. The language
of these poems, often called Epic and Homeric, is the old Ionic,
with those modifications and additions which a waqdering bard

would insensibly gather up, as he snmg from city to city,
and those poetic menses which are always allowed to early
minstrelsy, when as yet the language is unfixed, and critics are
unknown. Epic poetry was followed in Ionia by the Elegiac
of which Callinus of Ephesus and Mimnermus of Colophon
were two great masters ; and this again by Ionic Prose, If
which the two principal names are Herodotus and Hippocrateb,
who chose this refined dialect, although themselves of Doric
descent. In distinction from the Old Ionic of the Epic poets
the language of the Elegiac poets may be termed the Middle
Ionic, and that of the prose-writers, the New Ionic.
§ 3. The next dialect which attained distinction in litera
ture was the .£olic of Lesbos, in which the lyric strains ot
Alcaeus and Sappho were sung. But its distinction was short-
lived, and we have scarce any thing remaining of the dialect
except some brief fragments. There arose later among the
iEolians of Boeotia another school of Lyric Poetry, of which
Pindar was the most illustrious ornament; As writing, however
for the public festivals of Greece, he rejected the peculiarities
of his rude native tongue, and wrote in a dialect of which the
basis consisted of words and forms common to the Doric and
iEolic, but which was greatly enriched from the now universal-
ly familiar Epic. He is commonly said, but loosely, to have
written in the Doric.
§ 4« Meanwhile, the Athenians, a branch of the Ionian race,
were gradually rising to suQh political and commercial impor-
tance, and to such intellectual preeminence among the states
of Greece, that their dialect, adorned by such dramatists as
iEschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Aristophanes, and Menander,
by such historians as Thucydides and Xenophon, by such phi-
losophers as Plato and Aristotle, and by such orators as Lysias
iEschines, and Demosthenes, became at length the standard
language of the Greeks, and, as such, was adopted by the edu-
cated classes in all the states. It became the general medium
of intercourse, and, with a few exceptions, which will be here-
af,er noticed, the universal language of composition. This
diffusion of the Attic dialect was especially promoted by tlie
conquests of the Macedonians, who adopted it as their court
language. As its use extended, it naturally lost some of its
peculiarities, and received many additions ; and thus diffused
and modified, it ceased to be regarded as the language of a
particular state, and received the appellation of the Common
Dialect or Language.
The Attic- and Common dialects, therefore, do not differ in

DIALECTS. 8^
any eflsential feature, and may properly be regarded, the one
as the earlier and pure, the other as the later and impure, form
of the same dialect. In this dialect, either in its earlier or
later form, we find wn'tten nearly the whole that remains to us
of ancient Greek liten^ture. It may claim therefore to be re-
garded, notwithstanding a few splendid compositions in the
other dialects, as the national language of Greece ; and its
acquisition should form the commencement and the basis of
Greek study.
The pure Attic has been divided into three periods ; the 0/rf,
used by Thucydides, the Tragedians, and Aristophanes; the
Middle, used by Xenophon and Plato ; and the New, used by
the Orators and the later Comedians. The period of the Com-
mon dialect may be regarded as commencing with the subjec-
tion of Athens to the Macedonians.
§ •!• Of the Doric dialect, in proportion to its wide extent,
we have very scanty remains ; and of most of its varieties our
knowledge is derived from passages in Attic writers, from mon-
uments, and from the works of grammarians. In Greece it-
self, it seems scarcely to have been applied to any other branch
of literature than Lyric Poetry. In the* more refined Dorian
colonies of Italy and Sicily, it was employed in Philosophy by
the Pythagoreans { Archytas, Timeeus, &c.), in Mathematics by
the great Archimedes, in Comedy by Epicharmus and his
successors, and in Pastoral Poetry by Theocritus, Bion, and
Moschus.
§ O* To the universality acquired by the Attic dialect, an
exception must be made in poetry. Here the later writers felt
constrained to imitate the language of the great early models.
The Epic poet never felt at liberty to depart from the dialect
of Homer. Indeed, the old Epic language was regarded by
subsequent poets in all departments as a sacred tongue, the
language of the gods, from which they might enrich their sev-
eral compositions. The iEolic and Doric held such a place in
Lyric Poetry, that even upon the Attic stage an ^olo-Doric
hue was given to the lyric portions by the use of the long of,
which formed so marked a characteristic of those dialects, and
which, by its openness of sound, was so favorable to musical
effect. Pastoral Poetry was confined to the Doric. The Dra-
matic was the only department of poetry in which the Attic
was the standard dialect.

lects with litde precision. Whatever they found in the old
lonie of Homer that seemed to them more akin to the later
cultivated MoWcy Doric, or even Attic, than to the new lom'c
they did not hesitate to ascribe to those dialects. Even in the
common language, whatever appeared to them irregular or pe
culiar, they usually referred to one of the old dialects, terming
the regular form x<hp6v^ common^ though perhaps this form was
either wholly unused,* or was found only as a dialectic variety
On the other hand, some critics used the appellation xoiv6<; as a
term of reproach, designating by it that which was not pure
Attic. In the following Grammar, an attempt will be made to
exhibit first and distinctly, under each head, the Greek in its
standard form, that is, the Attic and the purer Common usage ;
and af\erwards to specify the important dialectic peculiarities.
It will not, however, be understood that every thing which is
ascribed to one of the dialects prevails in that dialect through-
out, or is found in no other. This applies especially to the
Doric and .£olic, which, with great variety within themselves
(§1), are closely akin to each other; so that some (as Mait-
taire) have treated of both under jthe general head of Doric ;
and in the following Grammar some forms will be simply men-
tioned as Doric, that also occur in the iEolic. By the term
iEolic, as employed by grammarians, is commonly denoted the
cultivated .^olic of Lesbos ; as the term Ionic is usually con-
fined to the language spoken (though, according to Herodotus,
with four varieties) by the lonians of Asia Minor and the adja-
cent islands.
,§ S. It remains to notice the modifications of the later
Greek. The Macedonians, who had previously spoken a rude
and semi-barbarous dialect of the Greek, retained and diffused
some of the peculiarities of their native tongue. These are
termed Macedonic^ or, sometimes, from Alexandria, the prin-
cipal seat of Macedonian,' and indeed of later Greek culture
Alexandrine.
The Greek, as the common language of the civilized world,
was employed in the translation of the Jewish Scriptures, and
the composition of the Christian. When so employed by na-
tive Jews, it naturally received a strong Hebrew coloring ; and,
as a Jew speaking Greek was called 'ii'U^vi ari/V ( from lUi^v/^w,
to speak Greek) ^ this form of the language has been termed the
Hellenistic (or by some the Ecclesiastical) dialect. Its pecu-
liarities naturally passed more or less into the writings of the
fathers, and through the diilusion of Christianity exerted a greai
general influence.

DIALECTS. 89
Another influence modifying the Greek came from the lan-
guage of the Roman conquerors of the world. Of necessity,
the Greek, notwithstanding the careful compositions of such
scholars as Arrian, Lucian, and iElian, and the precepts of a
class of critics, called Atticists, was continually becoming more
and more impure. The lai^guage of the By^^antine pejriod was
especially degenerate. Since the destruction of the . Eastern
Empire by the Turks, the fusion of the Byzantine and Eccle-
siastical Greek with the popular dialects of the different dis-
tricts and islands of Greeoe has produced the Modern Greek,
or, as it is often called, by a name derived from the Roman
Empire in the East, Romaic This language has been es-
pecially cultivated and refined within the present century, and
has now a large body of original and translated literature.
§ O. Tlie Greek, therefore, in its various forms, has never
ceased to be a living language ; and it offers to the student a
series of compositions, not only including many of the highest
productions of genius, but e^^tending through a period of nearly
duree thousand years.

^ lO. The Greek language is written with
tu^nty-four letters, two breathings, three accents^
four marks of punctuation, and a few other char-
acters.
1. For the Letters, see Table, f I.
Remarks. 1. Double Forms. Sigma final is written q\
not finals a ; as, axaa^q. In compound words, some editors,
without authority from manuscripts, use g at the end of each
component word ; thus, n^ogtiggfigtui. The other double forms
are used indifferently ; as, ^ovg or 6ovq
2. Ligatures. Two or more letters are often united, except
in recent editions, uito one character, called a ligature (liga-
tura, tie) ; as, j^ for xal^ 8 for ov, cS* for a^, ^ (named ail or
atlyfia) for or. For a list of the principal ligatures, see Table,

§ 1 1. 3. Numeral Power. To denote numbers under a
thousand, the Greeks employed the letters of the alphabet, as
exhibited in the table, with die mark ( ' ) over them ; as, a 1,
*' 10, */r 12, Q%y 123. The first eight letters, with Vau, rep-
resented the nine units ; the next eight, with Koppa, the nine
tens ; and the last eight, with Sampi, the nine hundreds. The
thousands were denoted by the same letters with the mark be*

^13. 4. Roman Letters. By the side of the Greek
letters in the table (U 1)) are placed the Roman letters which
take their place when Greek words are transferred into Latin
or English ; as, Kvxlwy/^ Cyclops.
Notes. «. The letter y becomes n, when fbllowed by another palatal ;
but, otherwise, g ; as, AyytXf^ Lat. angduiy £ng. angd ; ^vymeTny nfneope g
Xu^vyi^ larynx ; Ai^f »«, ^glna,
fi. The diphtiumg m becomes in Latin « ; ti, ce ; «#, { or e (before a conso-
nant almost always i) ; «(/,«; and m, yi ; as, <I>«i^^«f, Phadnu ; B«i«r/«,
BoBotia; NiiXtr, NUu$; A«^t7«f, Darim; Mii^tiff, Medea; M«(7rff, Mu$a,
EiXfiVviA, Hithjia.
A few words ending in »ta and m« are excepted ; as, fAmm^ Mma^ '^C**'h
Troia or Trofa ; so also A7«;, Ajax,
y. The improper diphthongs f, }?,**, are written in Latin simply a^e,oi
as, @f fxn, TAroce, 'Ai^n^ , HadeSy O^Jftf-r*, TAreno, ^^ ode. But in a few
compounds of ^^, f becomes or; as, r^yfiimj trag(Bdiay Eng. frc^ecfy.
}. The roM^ breathing becomes, in Latin and English, A, while the tmooth is
not written ; as,*Exr*r(, Hector^'^viy Eryx^ Ti«, Bhea (the A being placed
after the r l^ the same inaccuracy as after the w in our whUe^ pronounced
koo-Ue; since in both cases the breathing introduces the word).
^13. IL The Breathings are the Smooth or
Soft ('), and the Rough ('), also called the As-
pirate (aspiro, to breathe). The first denotes a
gentle emission of the breath, such as must precede
every initial vowel ; the second, a strong emission,
such as in English is represented by h. One of
these is placed over every initial vowelj and over
every initial or doubled g.
Notes. 1. An mitial » has always the rough breathing to assist in its
utt(>r.ince (as in English an initial long u is always preceded by the sound <^
y ; thus, Ss^ &fiti*s^ as, in English, use, pronounced yttee, union) ; except in th«
JColic dialect, and in the Epic forms Sftptts^ Sfifu or t>/«^v, t^u^i.

PRONUNCIATION,
^ IT* There are three methods of pronouncing
Greek which deserve notice; the English, the
MoD£RN Greek, and the Erasmian.
The ptommdatkm of 6v«ty language, ttom the very laws of laHgaage, is in
a continual process of change, more or less rttpid. And in respect to the Greek,
there ia full internal evidence, both that its pronunciation had materially
changed before its orthography became fixed, and that it has materially
changed since. Therefore, a» there is no art of embalming sounds, the an
dent pronunciation of the Greek can now only be inferred, and, in part, with
great uncertainty. Modem scholars have commonly pronounced it according
to the analogy of their respective languages. The English method, which has
prevailed in the schools of England and this country, confonns, in general, to
the analogy of our own tongu^ arid to our method of pronouncing the Latin.
The Modem Greek method (also called the Reuchlinian, fh)ni its distinguished
advocate, the learned Reuchlin) is that which now prevails in Greece itself.
It is given below, as exhibited in the Grammar of Sophocles. The Erasmian
method (so named from the celebrated Erasmus) is that which is most exten-
sively followed in the schools upon the continent of Europe, and which con-
forms most nearly to the prevailing analogy of the continental tongues.
Note. To avMd eonftision, the terms protraeted and abmpt are employed
below to denote what, in English orthoepy, we oommonly call Umg and Aori
sounds ; and the term ieha (ttroke^ beat\ to denote that stress of the voiei
which in English we commonly call accent. For the proper use of the terms
kmg and Aart^ and acceaiy in Greek grammar, see Prosody.
A. English Method.
^18. 1. Simple Vowels. i?, v, and « have always ih^
protracted sounds of e in metey u in iubey and o ih note ; as,
^"THfol^ tvniUy a^ctfy.
e and o have the abrupt sounds of e in let^ and o in dot ; ex<<
cept before another vowel, and at the end of a word, where
they are protracted, like e in real^ and o fn go ; as, Ac/ai, Xoyoq '
■^«o^, roog ' diy to.
a and I are, in general, sounded like a and i m English ^
when protracted, like a in hate^ and i in pine ; when abrupt,
like a in Ao^, and i in pin. At the end of a word, i always
maintains its protracted sound ; but or, except in monosyllables,
takes the indistinct sound of a in Columbia ; as, ^17^/9 leom '
stifayfMtt, (ptXla * id.
NoTPE. If « or 4 receives the idus^ whether primary or secondary, and is
foHowed by a single consonant or ^, it is protracted in the penult, but abrupt
hi any preceding syllable ; as, &yit^ ix^i^it • y^ti^trty ^<xi«r, 'ASn9m7»t. From
this rule is excepted « in any syllable preceding the penult, when the vowel of
the next syllable is 1 or 4 beforo another vowel (both without the ietus), in
which- case « is protracted ; as, «*«rU, nmtftttj yMkuf»v§fm;^m,

2. Diphthongs. The diphthongs are, for the most part
pronounced according to the prevailing sound of the same com
bmations in our own language ; c« like ei in height ^ ot like oi in
boUy VI like id in quiety av like au in aughtj sv and ijv like eu iu
Europe^ netUerj ov and cut; like ou in thou ; at is sounded like
the affirmative ay (oA-ce, the two sounds uttered with a single
impulse of the voice), and vi like whi in while. Thus, tidma
avTo/, nXtvaoijfAmi ^v|oy, &»v/Aa^ vlog,
3. Consonants. The consonants are pronounced like tlie
corresponding letters in our own alphabet, with the following
special remarks.
7, «, and x "^ always hard in sound : y heang pronooBoed like ^ in ^
(except before a palatal, where it has the sound of ii^ in iong^ § 49) ; » and x
like c in eap^ and eh in ehao$j L e. like k ; as, yiin^ &yyH (pron. aMg-^09\
S has the sharp sound of e& in Hum ; as, ^tit,
0 has the sharp sound of « in uxy ; except in the middle of a word before
^ and at the end of a word after « and «, where it sounds like z; as, rCsr«M •
r and r never have the sound of «A ; thus *Ar/« is pronounced A'^d-a^ not
^-Mt-a ; K^tTMSy Krit^'i-a$y not Kriah'-t'OM,
At the beginning of a word, | sounds like c, and ^ like « ; and, of two

mSTORT OF GREEK- ORTHOGRAPHY.
§31, That the Greek alphabet was borrowed from the
Phoenician is abundantly established both by historical and by
internal evidence.'
According to common tradition, letters were first brought into Greece by
Cadmus, a Phoenician, who founded Thebes. In illustration, we give the com-
mon Hebrew alphabet, which is substantially the same with the old Phoenician,
placing the corresponding Greek letters by the side. It should be remarked,
however, that the forms of the letters in both alphabets have undergone much
ehange. It will be noticed that most of the Oriental names of the letters,
when transferred to the Greek, require modification in accordance with the law
nqwcting final letters (§ 63), and that this is commonly effected by adding «•

§ 9f3. Thk borrbl^ed ^Ipfidt)^ receiydd id ttl« coiifSe tif
tiitie important modificatiohd.
«. The original Phoenidan atpiudiet bad no proper vowdi. The 6redE8|
tii«refore, employed as each those letters wbidi irere nearest akin to Towdil ,
Tis« A, E, F, H, I, and O. In ilie transition of these letters into vowds
there appears to hare been nothing arUtraij. A, as the soft or entirely open
breafthing, natoraSy passed into the most open and deepest of the vowels.
B find H, as weaker and stronger fbiins of the palatal breatMng, natnraUy
became signs of the shorter and longer sounds of the palatal vowd e ; in liktf
rtanner, the lingnal breathing I ftassed into the lingoid vovrel i, and the labial
breathing F into the labial vowel u (eompare t and y, or in some langoages
J, and also u and v or w); O appfeikrs to btfve been originally A nasal breath-
ing, and was hence employed to represent the vowel most akin to a nasal, tf.
The aspirate use of £ and F itill ccmtinaed for a pmod, yid hence tbestf
tetters whoi employed ma vowds Wke distingaished by the addition of ^TXit^
§mooA ; thus *£ i^rx«*, ^ ^TXit. It will be observed that the Ust of these
letterd, Wlieti used as a vowd, was tomewhat changed in form, and was put ate
the end of the old alphabet Th^ aspirate nse of H prevailed still fattery evefr
to the period of the highest Greek refinement, and when at length it had
yielded to the vowel use, tbe gnfmmari^ Aristophanes of Byzantium, who
flourished at the court of Alexandria, about 200 years B. C^ is said to have
divided the old character into the two marks, h for the roughj and H for the
smooth breatliing. These marks were abbreviated to »- J or *] '', and were
afterwards rounded to their present forms, * '. To the same Aristophanes has
been ascribed the first use of marks of accent and punctuation.
/3. The sibilants 2, 3, and 'Pf exchanged places hi ttih alphabet ; so that
S came a^Ster N, '^ after £1 (hence called 2«/»W,eAe 8 which Uobd nixiibPt),
and 2 after P.
y. To the Phoenician alphabet, the Greeks added the aspfantes ^ and Xy
the double consonant T, and the sign for long o, H. These new letters they
placed at the end. tn distinction the short o was now termed "0 /uz^iff
smafl O ; and the long o, ^H fiiyec^ great O, The names of the other new
letters were formed by simply adding a vowel to aid in sounding them ; thus,
<I>7, Xr, as, in English^ ^ ee,
t. In the softening of the language, the labia! breathing F, «nd also <f and
'^ which were only roughei' forms of K and S, fdl into disuse, and theses
letters were retained oiAy as numeral characters ; F and 9 ^ ^^ proper
places in the alphabet, but ^ at the end. Thus employed, they were termed
Epiaema (IrivufAtv^ gign, marK), See f 1, § 11.
F was also named firom its form the Digamma^ L e. the double gamma ;
and from its being longest retained among the .^olians, the JEalic Digamma,
It is still fouhd upbn some inscriptions and coins. In L&tin it commonly ap-
pears as tf; thus, Wthlv^ video, to «ee, F«iV«;, vinum, wine. Its restoration by
Bentley to the poems of Homer has removed so many apparent hiatuses and
irregularities of metre, that we cannot doubt its existence in the time of Homer,
though apparently even then beginning to lose its power. The general law in
respect to the disappearance of F, appears to be the following : Before a vowel
or an initial ^, ft is uauaUg dropped^ or become$ one of the common breathingt ; but
otherwise^ it usually passes into the cognate vowel v ; thus, /StfF'f * fi^F*^ fiiFif
(Lat. bovis^ hom^ boves) become (itify ^w, fiits ; but /3«Fi, fitPp^fiiF^ fisfri be-
come /5#«f, /3w», 00V, /SwW (^ 14).

The Greeks first wrote, like the Phoenicians, from right to left { and then
alternately from left to right and right to left (as it was termed, /3«vrrf «^ff)^y,i.e.

Herodotus, howeyer (II. 36), speaks of the meAod of writing from left to

period the Grreeks wrote entirely in capitals,' and without marking the division
of words. The tmaU cursive character first appears in manasciipta m the

CHAPTER II.
VOWELS.
(IT 81
<^ SI4. The Greek has Jive simple vowels^ and
seven diphthongs. Each of the ^mple vowels. may
be either long or short, and each of the diphthongs
may have either a long or short prepositive, or first
vowel.
REMARKS. 1. Of three vowels, the long {iiul short flowidg
are represented by the same letters (a, a ; T, r ; v^v); but of
the other two, by different letters (I, ^ ; o, «?).
NoTBB. m. The long sounds of these two voweb occur fkt more fteqnently
than those of the other three, and are hence distinguished by separate char>
acters.
fi. When speaking of letters, and not of sounds, we say that the Greek
has seven vowels ; and call i and s the fhort voweUy because they always ivp-
resent short sounds, « and « the long vowels^ because they always represent
long sounds, and «, i, and 0, the doubtful voweU, because their Ibnn leaves «.

y. There is strong evidence, that. In general, these vowels w^re pronounced
in the same manner as the corresponding vowels are now pronounced upon the
continent of Europe ;!.&«, like a m father^ waUj ftm (not as |n hat$) ; 9f h

but m b mom open than f and «, and i is aomewhat doaer than m,
§ 9S. 2. In the Greek diphthongs, the voice always passes
from a more open to a closer sound ; and the subjunctive, or
last vowel is always i or v. Hence the combinsftions possible
are only seven^ or, counting separately the proper and unproper
diphthongs, fourteen. Of these, atv scarcely occurs, except m
the Ionic dialect.
A Aort prepositive left time fbr the foil ntteranoe of the sabjoncttve vowel,
and the diphthong was then termed proper^ as really comlnning two aoonds;
tmt a kmg prepositive nearly or quite crowded out the sound of the subjunc-
tive, and tiie diphthong was then termed improper^ as thou^ diphthongal
aoly in appearance.
3. AAer « long, 17, and w, the subjunctive 1 so lost its sound,
that it was at last merely written beneath the prepositive, if
this was a small letter, and was then termed iota subscript (sub-
scriptus, written beneath). With capitals, it still remains in the
line, but is not sounded. Thus, '^Aidtjg or adtig^ pron. Hades^
"Hidfi or jjdfi^ idi ; *Jltdrl or ^^if, ode.
Notes, m. The t subscript is often written where it does not belong, ftom
(Use views of etymology ; as in the Epic dative Sv^^<, for Bv^ti^t (f 8);
and in the aorist of liquid verbs, which have «i in the penult of the theme ;

/3. In some cases the best critics diffisr : thus, in the infinitive of verbs in
-dm^ some write T«^f », as contracted from ti^iCmv, and others r<^y, as con-
tracted from an older form rtf^Uu So in the adverbial forms vjf, Urif^ or «^
Tr«, and the like.
$ 96. 4. In diphthongs, except the three just mentioned
(^, 17, and ^), the breathings and accents are written over the
second vowel, and thus often mark the union of the two vowels
as, avTij, herself but avj^^ cry; ^Wa, but ijiJae • aXqiaiq (a)
but "Aidng (o).
If two vowels which might form a diphthong are pronounced separately
the second is nuu^ced with a diieresU (§ 16. 3) ; as, kvrl^ HS^t.

compoond, see the Table (ff 3). They are there divided into
classes^ according to the simple sound which is their sole or
leadnig element, as A sounds^ &c. ; and into orders, according
to the length of this sound, or its combination with other sounds,
as short vowels, &c. The classes are arranged according to
the openness of the vowel from which they are named. Vow-
els belonging to the same class are termed cognate,
^ 3T. The Greek vowels are subject to a
great number of Euphonic Changes, which may
be referred, for the most part, to two great heads,
the PRECFifisiON OF VowELS, and the Union of
Syllables.
These changes diminish the effort in speaking, by reducing the Tdmne of
Bonnd employed, or by preventing hiatus, and lessening the number of eyh
I. Precession of Vowels.
^38. The great tendency m Greek to the pre-
cession or attenuation of vowel sounds shows it-
self,
1.) In the change of simple vowels.
Precession especially aflTects or, as the most open of the
vowels, changing it, when short, to e and o, and, when long,
to 1}, and sometimes to o).
Henoe these three Vowels may be regarded a^ kindred^ and are often inter-
changed in the formation and inflection of words. Thus, in the verbs r^i.
WM, rr^i^«r, we find the root in three forms, r^av-^ ^(^^'^ ^^ ^t^^'y ^'*'i»<p-j
rr^i^-, and rr^«^- ; and in pnyvvfu, we find the forms ^ety-, pfiy-, and ptity-*
This interchange is also illustrated by the connecting vowels inserted, for the
sake of euphony, in the inflection of words. Thus, in the first declension,
the connecting vowel is «, but in the second, «, for which in one case • ap-
pears. In the indicative active, the connecting vowel in the aorist and per«
feet is » (passing, however, into i in the 3d pers. sing. ; compare the imper-
ative /3«vXsvr0v), while in the present, imperfect, and future, it is • before a
liquid, but otherwise u

els, and in the general laws of contraction. Thus,
a. The long vowel is regarded as the short vowel doubled
that is, ff = aa, i} = e; , w = oo, v = vv, and r = u. When-
ever, therefore, in the formation of words, a short vowel is
lenicthened, or two short vowels of the same class are uniie<*

in sound, the corresponding long vowel ought to result. Bu
through precession, which especially afieets the long opec
vowels, «, unless it follows «, £« ^, or qo^ is usually length*
ened, not to a, but to the closer 17, and $e and 00 commonly
form, not rj and ai, but the closer diphthongs n and ov, whiok
are hence termed the corresponding diphthongs of t and o.
/?. Contraction more frequently exhibits some attenuation of
vowel sound. See §§31-87. This naturally appears less in
the earlier than in the later contractions* Compare fiaadiii
with ^aoiXng (§ 37. 2).

pears in the general law for the formation of diphthongs (§ 25. 2).
II. Union of Syllables.
^ 30, The most important changes belonging
to this head ai«, A. Contraction, which miites
two successive vowels in the same word ; B. Cra-
sis (^xgdaiSj mingling)^ which unites the final and
initial vowels of successive words ; and C. Apos-
trophe or Elision, which simply drops a final
vowel before a word beginning with a vowel.

^31. Contraction takes place in three ways ; by simple
union, by absorption^ and by union with precession. From the
law of diphthongs (§ 25. 2), two vowels can unite without
change only when the latter is i or v, and the former a more
open vowel. In other cases, therefore, either one of the vow-
els is absorbed^ i. e. simply lost in the other, which, if before
short, now of course becomes long ; or else precession takes
place, changing one of the vowels to « or v, which then forms
a diphthong with the other vowel. The following are the gen-
eral rules of contraction, with the principal cases belonging t»
each, and the prominent exceptions.

laws of contraction, disregarding, however, an i
final, which, according to the best usage, b not
even subscribed. But often (2.), without respect
to these laws, a final, or (3.) an initial vowel is
entirely absorbed.
Crasis ooccm mosCj in poetry. It is oommonly indicated by the coronis
( ) (S l^X oxc^^ whea this mark is excluded by the rough breathing ; as,
rm^j •vfA»i, When an initial vowel has been absorbed without any farther
change, the words are more frequently separated in writing ; as, m *^/. The
same is sometimes done when a final vowel has been absorbed, ^d, hence,
cases are oftoi referred to apfueregU and apostrophe which properly belong to
crasis. For the change of a smooth mute to its cognate rough, when the
second word is aspirated, see § 65. For the accent, see Prosody.

ject to crasis are the following :

flu few cases which remam are best learned frook observation.
C. Apostrophe, or Elision.
§ 41. Apostrophe affects only the short rowels
4, «, f, and o, and sometimes, in poetry, the passive
teroiinations in ai (and perhapis oi in the enclitics
fAoi^ aoij Toc). In monosyllables (except the £p. ^e^
and a few rare or doubtful cases)^ « only is elided.
For the mark of apostrophe^ see § 16. For the accentuation, see Prosody.
Elision is most common,
1.) hi the prepositions, and other [>articles of constant use ;
as, a^ imviov (for ano knvrov^ § 65), in innvov^ xai ifii^ and,
in composition (where the sign ' is omitted), airi^j)fdjum, diilavrtu^
nuQHfil' ixil iyoi3^U(f oi/y, / ovosvy fiul ar, oo- o (oiso), xoe^ ar.
3.) In a few pronouns, and in some phrases of frequent oc-
currence ; as, Tovi' aXlo^ xnvi i^dij ' yivoix ay^ lad" onov (lai»
OTTot;), kiyoifi av, old or/, qn^/i fyta.
§ 43* Rkmarks. m. Elision is less frequent in i, than in the olher
short rewds above mentioned. Particularly, it is never dided by the Attics
in w%fi or Hn (which might then be confounded with «ti) ; and never in the
Epic irW (2d person singular of i/yMi). It is never in prose, and very rarely*
in Attic poetry, elid^ in the Dative siiq^ular, which might th^ te coktfounded
, with the Accusative. The forms which take » paraoogic (§ 66) are not eHded
in pruse, except W/.
fi. Elision is least frequent in Ionic prose. In Attic prose, it is found chief-
ly in a few words, but these often recurring. In poetiy, where hiatus is more
carefolly avoided, its use is far more extended. In respect to its use or omis-
sion in prose, mwh seems to depend upon the rhythm of the sentence, the
emphasis, the pauses, and the taste of the writer. There is, also, in this
respect, a great difference among manuscripts.
DIALECTIC VARIATIONS.
^43. The dialectic variations in the vowels may be mostly
referred to the heads of Precession, Union or Resolution,
Qttantity, ano Insertion or Omission.
^J 44. I. Precession prevailed most in the sofi Ionic, and
Digitized by VjOOQIC
en. 2.J DIALECTIC VAKIATIONS. 105
least in the rough Doric and iGolic ; while the Attic, which
blended strength and refinement, held a middle plieuse. E. g.
1. Long «, for ihe most part, is retained in the t)oric and .£olic, but in the
Idnic pluses into n ; while in the Attic it is retained after i, j, ^, and (0, but
Otherwise passes into n (§ 2^). Thus, t)or. *afti^d, Att. V'^'S ^^^ V'$*> *
Dor. "ieifitbtj 9rAyL, ixvr&Sy Att. and loh. %infAosy vriyny MKVTti$ * Dor. and Att.
r«^<«, vfayfia^ Ion. wo^iti^ vfnyfMi. So, even in diphthongs, Ion. vfivf, yonvs,
for 9u»s^ y^»*fs, and in Dat. pL of Dec i., -ifo-t^ -pt, for ^asn, -«<;•
NoTB. The use of thi» long a produced, in greAt measure, the Doric f^tun
called v-Xartm^fiify broad pronunciatim, Which Was imitated by the Attics ill
the lyric parts of their drama (§ 6).
2. Short m is retained hj Uie Doric fft «ome words, wfa«^ in the Attic, H
pB«es into i ; and te some (partlcularty verbs ia .«») by the Attic, where it
becomeil 1 in Um Ionic Thus, Dor. r^iftty 'A^rdptts^ txi, ^dri, Att r^(^4#,
*A^%tMf , irtj P^i ' Att* i^sutt ^dtrtut^ risra^if^ A^vnv^ Ion. i^ut^ ^atriat,
3. In nouns in wr, -i«f, the characteristic 1 commonly passes, in the Iomc»
into I throughout ; as, w»Xtt, 4«f, u (ccmtraeted into t according to § 29. «)^
t9, ntf /«»», /«'!, lett (contr. r^).
4. An the long of t and «^ o¥ the omtiaction of ii and «« or a, the stricter
Doric prefers the long vowels n and «r to the closer diphthongs u and «0 $
while, on the other hand, the Ionic is particularly fond of protracting • and t
to u and tv or «. Thus^ Dor. x^^* iH^t * Gen. of Dec 11., vS i^MvS • Iiifin*
iv^ify, X'^'f^h vTyZv • tor x**iy mvA.0;, t«v w^ettov, ti^th^ ;^ct^uv, vwfcuf. Ion*

»vt»/Atiy »S(»f • Dor. wAr^f, ZfofMi, tlf^tf. Both the Doric and Ionic have «y for
•vy, therefore^ contracted from \of. ,
5. Other examples of precession or the interchange of kindred vowete
('> 28) are the following ; in some of which, contrary to the general law of
the dialects, the Ionic has a morb open sound than the Attic, or the Attic than
the Doric or Aolio ; Att *dtU *4i4<f, Ion. ttltit, akrit • Att* »««r, nXetv^ Ion.

§ 4S. II. Union or Resolution. A. The Contraction
of vowels prevailed most in the vivacious Attic, and least in
the litxurious Ionic. By the poets, it is often employed or
omitted according to the demands of the metre. There are
also dialectic difTerences in the mode of contraction, which, for
the most part, may be explained by precession. E. g.
I Ib contracting « with an 0 sound, the Doric often prefers a to the
ekM«r «» ; iii the first declension, regulariy. Thus^ Dor. 'Ar^ii^w, rZv ^veiv
(^ 8), riM'K^iiy, -av9Sj wuvifTtf ^«a4ri/m^sr, «'^£r«f, for *Arfu^ov (uncontracted

2 For the oonlractum of it and •• or «f, see $ 44. 4.
8. With the Ionics sod some of the Dorics, the fiivorite contraction of f *
and t0v is into tv, instead of •«. This nse of f« for *v sometimes extends ta
cases where this dipbth<Hig resolts tmrn a difiierent oontractiun. Thus, ftXw*
ft49f f <Xsv, ifikiv, St^iv^ for ptXiv/fUf (-ca^iv), ^k»» (-mv), ifi^ ('**)* ^*^m^»
(-M#) * Qtxaiio, iiimahuv, iimtutv0-t, m HerodotuS for Hdxtcitu (-««), ih»a4§m.
(-Mv}, ^txa49V0'i (-Mvr/) * Xafrctifvrw M. 283, for XMVtvrra (-iiwc).
4. The Dorics (bnt not Pindar), contrary to the general hnr of the dialect,
Cionunonly contract « with an E sound following^ into a ; a8» i^^rn^ ^tynv^ Xjff,
ftom i^ratf 0'tymuff Xmifg. CL § 33. m.
5. In the contractions which follow the change of » before r (§ 58), the
JEolic often employs m and ««, for d and «« ; as, Aoc pL rmis Ttfutig, rtit v«-
f$stfj for r»$ rtfitdf, Tohf fifMVf • Nom. ang. of a^. and partic. fuXmtj rv^Mf,
ru^pMt^a, tx»*'»t for ftiXdfj rv^pds, Tvypd^m, \x***^* * ^ P^"^ P^ ^ verba,
f «<«■«, ttevrroift, for ^^ri, »^vmv€u The Doric has here g^ieat rarietj, both
employing the simple long vowels, the short vowels (as though t were simfdy
dropped before r), the common diphthongs of contraction (§ 34), and the
.£oUc diphthongs; thus, Ace pL ri^^df and rixf^tf (Theoc. 21. 1) ; r»uf
Xvxtvt and TMt Xv»»f (Theoc 4. 11) ; iTf and tig, one; M«(/r<K, BiLwr« (Theoc.),
"Mm fa (Find.), and Laconic MJUtt • Kom. sing, of partic ^^awtug (Pind. OL
2. 108), tiotwm. (lb. 73). So, likewise^ m for •» before r in «»«/r«, Theoc
n. 78.
6. The Ionic nse of «0v for av in a f^ words, appears, at least in some of
them, to have arisen from a union of • and a to form u ; thus, for ralriy
XfAaurw^ netvrau, Itturw, Ion. rttlri^ t/tttvrsu, etmtfr»Vf i«rvr«v, from r§ «vr«,
I/aU avrov, 0U mvrcu, %• »vr6v. In the reciprocal pronouns* the «v passed
into the other cases. We find also Ion. ^»w/Mt, r^atvfia (yet better r««i/ec«),
for ^avffM^ TfMVfia, In all these words, «;v-is written by some with a diiere-
iis ; as, ^t^Sfut,
§ 46. B. Vowels which appear only as diphthongs in the
Attic are often resolved in the other dialects, especially the
Ionic and iEolic, into separate sounds. In the Ionic, the reso
lulion of €4, with e prolonged, into iji', is especially common ; as
fiaaiXrfirj^ xXrfl'g^ for paodtla^ xldg.
Notes. «. On the other hand, the Ionic in a few cases employs contrac-
tion where the Attic omits it, particularly of •n into «r ; as, /^«;, ifim^m, lv«»<>
/«, /3«d^«ar, iyisixcfTo, for it^«f, ifiefurett Uon^m^ /3«>i^tiv, »ylon»o*Ta.
fi. The fondness of the Ionic for a concurrence of vowels leads it, in some
cases, to change ► to » (§ 50) after a vowel (which, if before c, now becomes
•) j as, 'A^tfTayo^taf I'ivviaTtf for 'A^t^retyo^KVy ihvvetvTo,
C. In Crasis, the Doric and Ionic often differ from the Attic
by uniting the o of the article with « and at initial, to form n
and bt ; as, to aXri&ig, twlrj&ig * oi avd^fg^ atrdgfg ' ol ainoloi
(rtnokoi.

§ 4T. III. Quantity. For a short vowel in the Attic, the
other dialects oflen employ a long vowel or diphthong, and the
converse. Thus,

9* • MoL *A>.»S«f, «eX«««t for *AXMm7»u J^eX'^*^' See §§ 44. 4 ; 45. 5.
KoTB. The poets, espedaUy the Epic, often lengthen or shorten a -vowel
according to the metre. A short vowel when lengthoied in Epic verse
usually passes into a cognate dipthong ; as, %iXnk»vSat for IknXuB-ettf A. 202.
^48* IV. Insertion or Omission. Vowels are often
usetted in one dialect which are omitted in another ; and here,
as elsewhere, a peculiar freedom belongs to the poets, especial-
ly the Epic. These oflen double a vowel, or insert the half
of it (i. e. the short for the Umg)^ for the sake of the metre,
particularly in contract verbs ; as, xgijtivov iiXdw^^ for ngri^op
tXdmQj A. 41, q>aav&t9y ^finimaa^ oq6o»^ oQoi^g^ /iXtaovtrg^ tpoo};*

RmfARga. 1. The Ionic is espedally fond of the insertion of t ; as, Gen,
pL kv^^t X^^h »l»rUif^ for «i^^, &C. ; 2 Aor. infin. i v^im, Xtwun^ tot
2. In the Doric and Epic, the partides i^ tttly «««•«, ^m^ k^i, iiri,
and ir#ri (Dor. for ^^if^ often omit the final vowel before a consonant, with
such assimilation of the preceding consonant as euphony may require ; as,
§r^i) &fit fittfiaT^i, l'y»(t0'ts, k^trris (§ 68. 3), ««^ ^u*»fu*^ ttkw ^tiXM^m

WM( Znf'h kv^ifif^tu WmkXuf, ^§T riv. When three consonants . are thus
hrmight together, the first is sometimes r^ected ; as, tUxran, kfitfrn^u^ for
mmx»rtt9i, kfitftwu. So, sometimes in the Doric, even before a single conso-
nant ; as, icmfimtMf.
NoTBS. m. From the dose connection of the preposition with the ftDow*
faig word, these cases are not regarded as making any exception to the rule
fai § 63. Compare § 68. /S. The two words are often written together, even
when there is no composition ; as, xMlivfafuvt WTrit.
j3. In these words, the final vowd was probably a euphonic addition to the
original form. Comp^ue k^i and ^«r« with the Latin ab and mib. The old
foim w^y in accordance with the rule (§ 63), became v^W and v^^r^ idience

CONSONANTS.
^ 49* The Greek has eighteen coNSOitANrs,
represented by seventeen letters.
They are exhibited in the Table (% 3) according to two methods of divis-
ton, employed by orthoSpists. Consonants of the same class, according to tha
fiisit method, are termed coffmUes of the same order, codrtUntOi,.
SraiABKS. 1. The letter y peribrms a doable office. Whtti fbllowad hy
another palatal, it ia a nasals otherwise a middle mute. As a naslkl, it has r
for its corresponding Roman letter ; as a middle mute^ g (§ 13). For its
pronnndatioo, see $ 1^. 3.
2. IVom the representation of the Latih v by j3 (VhyiBu8, Bt^iXm), it to
probable that in the andent^ as m the modem Greek (§ 19\ the middle
mutes approached nearer to the aspirates than in oor own langfoage, and that,
iA fbrining them, the oilgans were not wholly dosed.
§ ffO* 3. The semivowels v and a have oorresponding
vowels in m and t ; that is, a may take the place of y, and c of
a, when euphony forbids the use of these consonants ; as, itp&A-i-
gatai, for tififaQvrai^ onf(}iia (contracted anfQ^) f&r a'tidivat
See §§ 34, 46. /J, 56 - 58, 60, 63. R., &c.

§ 64. X. A consonant is sbtoetimesi inserted or

tibd before an initial ^, a smooth o is inserted ; as, iif^aaa,
aQfwatog, im^(}(6wv(ju, from fmyviifAi (i-^ a-, and int prefixed)
but sv^maiog (the diphihang hi prefixed).
2. When, by syncope or metathesis, a nasal is brought be

Notes. «. So, likeirifle^ adverU tf place m .#» (piroperiy datives phiral
the advert) 'ri^vrs, last year^ the numenl ttrnt^t (comraonlj), the deraonstra*
tive -i preceded bj r (sometimes), the Epic case-ending ^ and the Epic
particles »!, 9v, and fU^t • as, li Uxmramm tiyt/t^ia' %t»»0n fm. See § 21 1 . N.
^. The y thus assomed is called v paragogie. It is sometimes employed by
the poets before a consonant to make a syllable long by position ; and in most
kinds of verse, some of the best editors write it nniibrmly at the end of a line.
In Ionic prose it is generally neglected, bat in Attic prose it is sometimes
found evm before a consonant in the middle of a sentence. In grammars
and lexicons, a paiagogic letter is commonly marked thus : <7»dri(y).
§ 67» 2. The. adverb ovrcucr, thus^ commonly loses a before
a consonant ; and a/^i and /iixgt^ urUU^ often assume it before
a vowel ; as, ovt«» qnjal ' ftixQ^^ <>v*
3. Some other words have poetic or dialectic fcnmn, in which a final » or f
is dropped or assumed : aa, local adverbs in 3fv (poet , chiefly Ep., St>, nn-
meral adverbs in -tug (Ion. -tu), 4bvt4»^v;, «r#i^f, tftwrng^ wmXiPy tv^v(jt\
^ 68. C. Special Rulks.
1. The preposition ^$, out of^ becomes ^x* before a consonant,
and admits no further change ; as 4% xaxoiy, ^xas i;ai^ ixytXdtt^
Ix^ero;, ixfidaaw.
2. The adverb ov, not^ before a vowel, assumes x, which
becomes/ before the rough breathing; as ov yijai, ovx IVeorii',
ovx vtiy ovxirt.
Notes. «• The advert) finxirt, from ftn and lr<, follows the analogy of
fi. In these wordM, U and tv» may pertiaps be r^:arded as the original
^rms. That in certain situations these forms are retained is owing to thdr
ckMe connection as proclitics, or in composition, with the fbllowing word, and
therefore forms no real excq>tion to the rule in § 63. When orthotone, they
conform to the rule, the one by assuming r> and the other by droi^ing s.
3. In composition, the preposition ^r, tn, retains its r before
^ and (J ; while avvy toitk^ drops its r before a followed by an-
other consonant, and before f; but before a followed by a
vowel, changes V to a ; as, ivQamta^ ivadta (yet e^^v&fiog often-
er than h(fv&fio^); avaxrma (for avvaxrina)^ avivyUt' avaatvu

§ 78. The two classes of Substantives (in-
cluding Nouns and Substantive Pronouns) and
Adjectives (including the Article, Adjectives com-
monly so called. Adjective Pronouns, and Partici-
ples) are declined to mark three distinctions, Gen-
der, Number, and Case.
Note. Acyectives receive these distinctions merelj fbr the sAke cf €QO«
ibrming to the substantives to which they belong. ^
A. Gender.
^74. The Greek has three genders ; the Mas-
culine, the Feminine, and the Neuter.
Notes. «. Noons which are both masculine and feminine, are said to b«
of the comnum gender.

(^ To mask the mmden of Greek nomui, m employ the different forBu of
the article , in tlie singular, for the masculine, 0 ; for the feminine, « ; tor th^
oommon, «, h ; and for the neuter, r« : in the plural, for the masculine, «/ :
hf the feminine, «/ ; fi>r the common, m, at ; wsv^ for the neuter, v^ : as, i
Id l|ke manner, the different cfiaes and numbers, according to their gtndei^
■re marked ^y different fofma ^ ^ article ; as the Qeo. dng. niase^ by
y. In the case of most animals it is seldom important to distinguish the
gender. Hence in Greek, for the most part, the names of animals, instead
of being common, h^ve but a smgle g«nder» which is used indifierendy for
both sexes. Snch nouns are termed ej^cene (IrifCMts, promiscuotu), ThuS|
i Xi/s««, wolf, h itXMxnll, fox^ whether the male or the female is spoken of.
y Words which change their fonps to denote change of gender are termed
movabk; and this change is termed motion; as, i fianXtug, king, 4 fiarikumf
fMeeii ; • ^*fifi vise, 11 r«^tf, t^ r«^«y.
1. In words in which the fbninine may either have a eomtmm form with
the maemfine or a dtsUnet form, the AUie sometimes prefers the oommea
form, where the Ionic and Comtnon dialects prefer the distinct form ; as, <^ 4
^ify god, goddea, and li df« or S-mmmk, goddess. So, likewise, in adjectives.
^709 The masculine gender belongs properly to words
denoting males ; the feminine, to words denoting female9 ; and
the neuter to words denoting neither males nor females. In
Greek, however, the names of most things without life are
maaculioe or feminine, either from the real or fknoied posses-
sion of masculine or feminine qualities, or from a similarity in
their formation to other nouns of these genders.
Thus, for the most part, the names of winds and riverf
(from their power and violence), and also of the months^ are
masculine ; and the names of trees^ plants^ countries^ islands^
and cities (regarded as mothers of their products or inhabitants)
tire feminine ; while nouns denoting mere />rorft*€^, or imply-
ing inferiority (even though names of persons), especially
diminutives^ are neuter ; as, 6 avf/xoc, loind^ 6 Bogduq^ Boreas^
o notttfiOQ^ river^ 6 NtlXog^ the Nile^ 6 fn^v, months o *E%aiofApai'
oiy, June - Jvly^ 17 ot/x^, fig-tree^ ^ fjitjlia^ apple-tree^ ^ umogy

jI Tf'xroy, childy to nvdgdno^Qv, slave^^ to yvvmov, dim. of yvvri,
woman, to naidiov, little boy or girL
$76. The gender of nouns, when not determined by the
signification, may be, for the most part, inferred from the form
of the theme or root, according to the following rules.

TO yigag, -^og.
B. Number.
^77. The Greek has three numbers; the Sin-
gular, denoting one; the Plural, denoting more
than one ; and the Dual (dualis, from duo, two)^
a variety of the plural, which may be employed
when only two are spoken of.
Thus, the singalar &9^(MTf signifies man, the plaral &v^(t0*§t, mm (whetn
er two or more), and the dual 4»S^4^4r«, two Msa.

KoTBS. «. From the general character of the relations which they denote^
the Nominative, Aocosative, and Vocative are termed the direetj and tha
Genitive and Dative, the indireet cases.
/S. The Nominative and Vocative are also termed casus reed, the right eaam
and the other three, casu* oMiquif the oblique C€uet,
^ For a fiiDer statement of the use qf the cases, see Syntax.
D. Methods of Declension.
^79. Words are declined, in Greek, by an-
nexing to the root certain affixes, which mark
the distinctions of gender, number, and case.
There are three sets of these affixes ; and hence
arise three distinct methods of declining words,
called the first, second, and third declensions.
The first of these methods applies only to words of the mas-
culine and feminine genders ; the second and third apply to
words of all the genders. In some of the cases, however, the
affixes vary, in the same declension, according to the geiider ;
so that, to know how a word is declined, it is necessary to
ascertain three thbgs ; 1. its root^ 2. the declension to which it
belongs, and 3. its gender.
Hie mode in which the gender is marked has been aiready stated (§ 74, /3).
Firom the theme (L e. the Nom. sing.) and the gender, we can often determine
■t once the root and the declension. If it is necessary to marlc these expli-
citly, it is commonly done by giving^ with the theme, the Genitive singular, or
its ending. If the Genitive nngular ends in ^mt or -nu or in .«» from a theme,
m -uf or -n$, tiu word is of the first dedensions if it ends m .»ufrom a theme m
-09 or -sfi the word is of the second declension ; if it ends in -tt, the word is of
Ae 0ttrd declension. The root is obtained by throwing off the affix of the Genitive $
or it may be obtained by throwing off any afl^ beginning with a voweL

ing GENERAL RULES are observed.
I. The masculine and feminine affixes are the
same, except in the Nom^iative and GenUtve sin-
gular of the Jirst declension. The neuter affixes
are the same with the masculine and feminine,
except in the direct cases, singular and plural.
II. In neuters J the three direct cases have the
same affix, and in the plural this affix is always d.
III. The dual has but two forms; pne for the
direct J and the other for the indirect cases.
IV. In the feminine singular of the first declen
sion, and in the plural of all words, the Vocative is
th^ 35me with the Nominative.
% 8 !• RracARKS. 1. The use of the Yoc as a distinot form is atll
furtW limited. Few svbetantives or adjectives, except proper names and pern
sonal appellatives and epithets, are sufficiently employed in address to require
a separate fonn for this purpose. Hence the participle^ pronovKj artieje, and
uimeral have no distinct Yoc. ; and in respect to other words which 9re de-
clined, the following observations may be made.
a. JkTeucuIimet at Dec I. are commonly names or epithets of persoaa, and
l^ierefore fonyi the Yoo. sing.
fi. In Dec. 11^ the distinct form of the Yoc. is commonly used, except for
euphony or rhythm ; as,^n ^/X«f, Z ^i>.»s^ my friend I my friend! Ar. Kub.

0M St. Matth. 27. 46.
y. In Dec. III., few words, except proper names and personal appellative^
and epithets, have a distinct Yoc. ; and even in those which have, tiie Nom.
i9 sometimes employed in its stead, especially by Attic writers ; thus, ^Sl trSra

*ft ^<X * A7«f lb. 629. In many words of this declension, the Yoc. cannot
be formed without such a mutilation of the root as scarcely to leave it inteUi-
^ble($$ 63, 101).

^892. An tnspection of the table (If 5) will likewise
show, that, in regular declension,
*.) The Nom. sing* mase. and (ezc^t in Dec I.) fern, always ends in f
fi.) The Dat. mng. always ends in $, either written in the line or subscribed.
y.) The Ace sing, (except in neuters of Dec. m.) always ends in v, or its
corresponding vowel a (4 50) ; aiid the Ace. plnr. maac. and fern, is always
formed by adding g to the Ace. sing. (§§ 34, 58).
h) The Gen. pins', always ends in m.
^.) In Dec I. and 11., the affixes are all opem (i. e. begin with a vow^
and iH oonstttute a distinct syllable In Dec III., three of the affixes, r, 9,
and n^ are dote (i. c begin with a eonmmantX and of these the two first,
hanng no vowd, must unite with the last syllable of the root*
^.) In the singular of Dec. III., the direct cases neut, and the Yoc. masc
and fem., have no affixes.
NoTR. It foOoMTS, from nos. i and ^, that words of Dec. I. and 11. are
faruyWdne (par, equal), that is, have the same number of syllables ic all
their cases ; but wofds of Dec. III. are hnftaruyUabic, that is, have more
sylhibles m some of their cases than in others.
3. The Table (U 6) exhibits the affixes as resolved into
their two classes of Elements ; T. Flexible Endings, which
are tignijicant additions, marking distinctions of number, case,
and gender ; and II. Connecting Vowels, which are euphonic
in their origin, and serve to unite the flexible endings with the
root For farther illustration, see the following sections upon
the history of Greek declension.
E. History of Greek Declension.
§ S3* The early history of Greek declension is beyond the period not
merely of written records, but even of tradition. It can be traced, therefore,
only by the way-marlcs which have been left npon the language itself, and by
the aid of comparative philology. The fbllowing view of the subject has
much evidence in its support, and serves to explain the general phenomena of
Greelc declension, and of the use of the numbca^ and cases.
Greek declension was progresdve. At first, the simple root was used, as in
some languages even at the present day, without any change to denote num-
ber iir case ; thus, i^^y fi»h, ywr, imiitere, whether one or more were spoken
of. Then the plural number was marked, by affixing to the root i, the sim- ^
pie root, of course, now becoming nngular, as each new formation limits the
^se of prior forms ■ thus.
Singular, Ix^i, fidi. Plural, Ix^* /«*«•
yvr, vulture^ yv^t, tuthiret.
The next step was to make a separate form, to express th« wdtreel, as
distinguished fh>m the direct reUtions. This was done by aimezing i to the
root, and this form became phiral by adding one of the oommon signs of the
pharal, » We hava now the disthicttoa of case ; thus,

- ^ S 4 • Each of those cases was afterwards subdivided. (A.) From
the Direct Case were separated, in the mascniine and feminiw. genders, twi
new cases, the one to express the subject^ and the other the lUrect object^ of an
action, i. e. the Nbminativef and AccuatxHoe ecues.
llie Nominative was formed by adding $, as &e sign of ^the tmijeei, to tka
old Dii*ect forms ; tbus^ Sing. Ix^^h yw, Plur. Ix^^^t yvwu^
The Accmatwe was formed by adding tq the root, as the sign of tbe ^^r^
obfect, 9t which in the plural took one of th/9 Qommon signs of the i4ural, t ;
thus, Smg. ix^vyt yvfPj Plur. ix^h Y^*fi ^i hy the euphonic ctuwge of t
into its corresponding vowel (§§ 58, 63, R.), Sing, yvret, Plur. tx^^»t,

(B.) Prom the Indirect Case was separated a new ease to express the
ntf^edhej as distmguished from the ol^jecHve relations, i. e. the OenHive, This
was formed by affixing ^, or commonly, with a euphonic vowel, «^w In tha
phiral, this took tfaa plural affix » ; thus, fSv. But by the laws of ouf^ony,
which afterwards prevailed, neither S, nor ^v could end a word (J 63).
Therefore, S either was changed to $, or was dropped, or assumed the vowel i
(commonly written with y paragugic iv, § 67. 3) ; and a^v became »t* by the
absorption of the ^ (^, perhaps, first passmg into r, as in the singular, then r
bebig changed mto its corresponding vowel i, and this absoHted). Ttuia «^
became «# , «, or ^Siv ; and «3ir, i»«.
The old Indirect Case remained as a Datha, witkont diaoge, exeapt tliat a
new plural was formed by annexing the dative sign 4 (§ 83) to the Komioa-
tive plural.
§ 8 «!• The plural had now throughout a new form, but the old form
had 80 attached itadf to various names of incessant oso, that in most of the
dialects it was still preserved. But these household plurals, which could not
be shaken off, would be principally such as referred to objects double by natnre
or custom, as the eyes, hands, feet, shoea^ wings, &e. Hence this £r>nn oaina
at length to be iq>propriated to a ^tai sense, though in the time of Uomer
this restriction of its use seems not as yet to have been fully made. IIm
simple form of die root was likewise retained in the smgular as a caae of ad-
dress ( Vocative), in words in which there was occasion for such a form, and
the laws of euphony allowed it. In the plural the Vocative had never an>
form distinct fVom the Nominative. We have now the three numbers, anc
the five cases, which, with the euphonic dianges already mentSened, appeal
thus.

For the sake of completeness, ^e have added in the table above two later
modifications; viz., the common shorter Dat. plur., formed by dropping i
(unless one chooses to fbrm it from the Dat. sing, by inserting the plnral sign
r) ; and the Indirect Case dual prolonged by inserting «, after the analogy of
the Gen. sing, and plu^.
^ HO. We have exhibited above the primitive nude declension, now
cilled the third. Bat snbeeqfaently *wo ether modes of declension sprang np,
having oonneethig vowels, which united the ileidble endings to the root ; liM
one having «, now cidied the §ecomd dedenslen ; and the other, •, now odM
the firtL These dedensbns dioee rather to drop than to change the final ^ of
the Gen. shig., apparently to avoid oonftision with the Nom. ; and likewise to
FHain the old Dh«ct Case as a Nom. plur., which became afterwards distiiH
giiished from the dual by a difi^crent mode of contraction, its more finqaent ose
leading to precession* In all the affixes of these declensions in which two
▼owels came together, contraction natwally took plaee m one or another of iito
forms ; and in the Dat. plur. a shorter form became the more ooomon 000^

In the Nom. and Aoc. sing. <of these dedensionf, the primitive dhfeet form^

nmOtt (wbitk ooeoKS 011^ in the second and third declensions), since things
without lift htv<e no volvotary action, the distinction of subject and object io
obviously of far less consequence, and therefore in this gender the separation
of the Nom., Ace., and Yoc. was never made. The place of these three cases
«contin led to be sappHed by a shigle Direct Ctee, which in the singular of
Dec. in. was the simple root, and in die sinyrular of Dec II. ended in tt (the
9 being either euphonic, or more probably having the same foree as in the
Jop«, «nd mivfcing the otyeetive character of the gender). The plnral has the
same form in hoth declensions, simply appending, instead of the old 1, 4 (which,
|W t}ie corresponding vowel of » (§ 50), is more objective in its character), and
Vrithout a connecting vowel. We give, as examples, rt ^dm^v (poetic), ttar,

For the ).n<ee8sion which has taken place so extendvely in the singular of
Dec. I., see ^ 93.
§ 8 0v In the earlier Greek, the prevalent mode of avoiding hiatus was
not, as afWw%i js, by contraction, but by the insertion of a strong' breathing
or aspirate omr^mant (cf. § 117). Of these the most prominent- appeaia tk
have been the digamma (§ 82. T), And, although this has disappeared ttom
the language, yet it has left other consonants which have dther> taken its
place, or idikh were used in like manner with it. The insertioa of these
consonants, to^y^ether with different modes of contraction, has given an especial
variety of form, in ihejirst and teeomd dedenshm, to the Dative tingular, which,
as the primitive induct case (§ 83), originally performed the offices of both
the Genitive and the Dative. Thus, we find, .
1.) The I appended with the hisertion of ^ the natural successor of the
digamma. This form is Epic, and from its being used as both Gen. and Dat.,
and sometimes fiven supplying the place of these cases hi the plural, is evi-
dently of great antiquity. £. g.

III. The Third Declension.
[For the affixes and paradigms, see ff 85, 87; W 5, 6, II - 16.]
^ lOO* In this declension, the Nominative, though regard-
ed as the theme of the word, seldom exhibits the root in its
simple, distinct form. This form must therefore be obtained
from the Genitive, or from some case which has an open af
fix (§§ 79, 82. e).

2. Tlie flexible ending of the Aoc sing. In this, as in the oflier two de-
clensions; seems to have been originally ». But the v was so extensively
dianged into m in aooordanee with § 63. R, that the m beeauie the prevailing
affix, and was often osed even after a vowd. It will thurefure be understood
that the affix is «, if no statement is made to the contrary. When the affis
is V, the root receives the same changes as in the theme ($ 1 10).

2. In other pnres, contraction is, for the most part, con
fined to three cases ; the Nom. and Ace. plur., and the Dat
sing.
The contractions which are usual or frequent in these words are exhibitea
in the tables. Contraction sometimes occurs in cases in which it is not given
in the tables, and is sometimes omitted in cases in which it is given. Thest
deviations from common usage are diiefly found in the poets.
§ 110* 3. In the Attic and Common dialects, the endings
80^, -8a, and -tag^ instead of the common contraction, receive
in certain words a peculiar change, which lengthens the last
vowel. This change takes place,
a.) In. the Gen. sing, of nouns in -i^, ^vg^ and -«t;?t and
sometimes of nouns in -i and -v ; as, noXig^ Gen. noUog noXwg^
nrjxvg^ -«ft>$, imiBvg\ -cwj, aatv^ ~iog and ~fwg (fl 14), ninf^i^-Brng
(§ 1 13. 2). Also 0 "AQijg^ Mars^ G. *'A(ifo<: and sometimes *'jgmg
(as if from a second theme "jQsvg^ cited by grammarians from
AlcsBus).
b.) In the Ace. sing, and plur. of nouns in ^svg ; as, tnnfvg^
Ace sing, innia innea^ pi. inniug innsikg.
Notes. «. This change appears to be rimplj an early and less po-fbct
mode of contraction. From the accentuation of such words as riXfUt it it
evident that the s (as in 'Ar^ii3i*r, Mi»fXs««, $ 35) has not the full force of a
distinct syllable ; while it is equally evident from the use of the poets, that it
has not wholly lost its syllabic power. It seems, therefore, to have united as
a species of semivowel (of the same class with our y and w) with the follow-
ing vowd, which consequejitly, as in other cases of contraction, became long.
An especial reason fbr regarding this method of contraction as early, consists
in the fact that it b confined to those classes of words which have dropped F
or A from the root (§§ 117, 118). The poets sometimes complete the con-
traction by synizesis ; as, /3ariXi«f Eur. Ale. 240, *£«i;^^utf( Id. Hipp. 1095,
*A;^iAAi« Id. Iph. A. 1341. Sometimes^ also, the unchanged Gren. in -ias,
and rarely the Ace. in -ti and -tis occur in the Attic poets : as, Nn^b; Eur.
Ion, 1082, 9-oXt0s Id. Hec. 866, ^•fi& lb. 882. The poets likewise employ
in the Ace. sing, the regular contraction into « ; as, lvyy»m^*i Ar. Ach. 1 1 50,
' *Oiu9^ffri Cur. Rh. 708, and even tt^v Id. Ale. 25. The r^^arly contracted
Ace pi. in -!<;, instead of -ntst became in the later Greek the common form,
and although regarded as less Attic, yet b not unfrequent in the manuscripts
and editions of genuine Attic writers, particularly of Xenophon ; as, fiK^sXiit
Mem. iii. 9. 10.
fi. If another vowel precedes, the i b commonly absorbed by the «;, a, and
Af ; thus, n.iiftui»t§ Huf»m(, Tlti^et/im TLu^eiii (^ 14){ X^'^fi /C^> X'**
(§ 123).
y. For the earlier contraction of the Nom. pi. of nouns in -ivf into n;, see
§ 37. 2. The uncontracted &nfiit occurs PI. Thest. 169 b.
). The form of the Gen. in .i«f is termed by grammariant the Jttie Gem^
twe. For its accentuation, see Prosody. The Gen. pi. in -$m accented tipoii'

u The Gen. in .i«f is also found in a few adjectives in st (as, »«XX/ir«Xif ,
•mm; ), ^ flfu^vf^ half (Gen. commonly -tMf , but also -iot and -«»«), and, in
later irnters, in other adjectives in •»$ (thus, /3(«^iivf Flut.).
§ 1 1 7« RKMATtys ON THE DECLENSION OF PuBEs. The various
and peculiar changes in the declension of pures appear to have chiefly arisen
from the successive methods which were employed to avoid the hiatus pro-
duced by appending the open affixes to the characteristic vowd. Of these
methods, the eaiiier consisted mainly in the insertkm of a ttnmg breathin0-or
tupiraU coMonant (cf. § 89) ; and the later, in contraction. The insoted
aspirate became so intimately assodated with the root, that its use extended
even to the cases which had not an open affix ; and although it fell away in
the refining of the language (cf § 22. ^), yet it left distinct memorials. of it-
self, either in a Idndred vowel or consonant, or in a prolonged syllable. The
aspirates chiefly inserted appear to have been the labial F, and a dental breath-
ing, which was most akin to *■ (in Latin it passed extensively into r ; for dis-
tinction's sake, we here represent it by a capital 2). From the classes of
words in which these aspirates were resi)ectively inserted, the former appears
to have prevailed in an earlier period of the language, than the latter. In
the modifications which subsequentiy took place, the foUovring law prevailed :
When I.) foUowed bjf a vaweLy both Ihe aspirates were simpiy dropped. When
not foUowed by a vowd, the labial breathing united (2.) wiUi «, «, and • pre-
ceding to form «v, iv, awd «v, and (3.) toilh I and B (except in the Dot. plwr,\
to form I and S ; while the dental breathing (4.) at the end of a word beeame^ t,
and (5.) b^ore the affix g lengthened a preceding Aort voweL Thus,

fi2 r^in^tg (1 14). The peculiar form of the Voc of nx** and mthtig has
arisen from the change of « to its correspon^ling vowel (§ 50) and then con-
traction with precession (§ 29) ; thus, «;ttf2 «;^#i hx** (c^* §§ 45. 5, 86,
112. /3).
(5.) zaftig ra^fig (T 17), 'Smm^drt'Sg ^utM^arfig, mtH^g mt^g (^ 14).
For if;^», see § 112. iS, and compare fix«i above (4.). In the Dat. p!. thA
short vowd remains unchanged ; as, va^itt.
Note. In adjectives, and in a few masculine and neuter nouns, the diph-
thong IV appears to have been reduced to a simple short y ; as, HhiFg ^^v<» «^(F
ntt (1 19) ; ^nx^Fg vnx^f* v-nx^Fv ^x^h '^nx*^ ^^X^t HvriF A^tH

in a great number of feminines, it acquired a permanent place in the langnaet
as this letter. In its previous, and as yet unfixed state, we represent it, wr
cfotincti(m's sake, by n capital A. Befolre this inserted U>ia]^ tt ixrald i^

is a remarkable illostratioli of this, that ift ^bo irfaole dedcnfliotij there is not
a single instance of t before a characteristic lingual mute. In the progress
of the bmguage, feminines in -i^ or with the inA6Kdd Ungtud .tA-, assumed
three forms:
1.) The A kSk away, leaving the vowel of preoessiaB « in the Kom., Aca,
and Ybc aing., hot the original « in the other cases ; thus, wiktu ^i^ttf, «*«•
Xi«, wiXi9, wiXt • wikuft wiXtwv, T«JLi#v, <t0k4n {\ 14)^ This became the
OMial form of ftminine pores in wf^ in the Attic and Common dialects.
2.) The A fell away, imd precession took pla6d thfodghotlt. This became
the regular form of feminine pnres in -tf in the Ionic dialect (§ 44. 8) ; Ihus,
Ion. N. -Tfi G. -r#f, D. -T/, always contracted into -r, A. -fi', V. -f; PI. N. -Uf,
sometimes contr. into -r; , 6. -tvt, D. -r«-/, A. •!«;, commonly contr. into -Tf ;
as, viktfy ir0X/0f, irikTf ToXiv • viXngj -/^y, ^oXirij 9C*Xiaf, -Tf* The i was also
the prevalent vowel in the Doric ; thus, Dor. vreXtg, «r«X<0(, wJXr and ir^ku»
triXtv ■ vikitf, irokitVf vXitrc-t and ^riXirs, veXietf,
3.) The A became fixed in the root, and the word passed into the daas of
Kngnals. Thus, the root Mty^^t-, Megarian, had two forms, MiT^tF- mate,
and with precession Mty«^i A- fern. ; firom the fbnner we have Mtyaifttfit -Uff,
Mufttrian tkan, and firom the latter, Mtytt^if, ./^««, Meg<trtan woman. Thia
became the prevalent mode of declining feminines in ^^ , if we except the
large class of abstract nouns in ^/f. EspedaUy many feminine acyectives, or
words which are properly such, are thus declined.
Note. We find, also^ the same forms in a few masculine or common
nouns and adjectives (§§ 111, 119. 2), and even, in a few words, a ooir^
■ponding neuter formation in w (§ 113. 2).

characteristic see § 104 ; of a liquid characteristic, §$ 107, 123. «.
2.) In some pores in -tt^ the Attic adopts, in whole or in part (particolarly
in the Gen. sing.), the Ionic forms ; as, Si rv^r/f, towery G. rv^fuf vii. 8. 12

Homer uses the four forms, though .tfi(v) rarely. The forms .t0^0-/(») and

2. The dialects and poets vary greatly in the extent to which they employ
o6ntraction, and in the mode of contraction. The Epic has here especial li-
cense. In the poets, contractions are often made by synizeds (§ 30), which
an not written. In respdct to the niage of Homer, we remark as follows :
(a) In the Gen. sing., contraction is oommoidy omitted, except in neons hi
•m and .«f , 6' 4t* In a few words, the contriiction of -t«f hito ^ws occnxs
($ 45. a>« and thore are a few instances of synieesia (idiksh we maifc tiius,

nave not been already noticed, may be chiefly referred to two
heads ; variety of declension^ and defect of declension.
A. Variety of Declension.
A noun may vary, (1.) in its root; (2.) in its method of
declension; and (3.) in its gender (§ 79). In the first case, it
is termed a metaplast {utranXninoc^ transformed) ; in the sec-
ond, a ketereclite (brfgoxhrnc^ of different declensions) ; in the
rfiird, heterogeneous {ktfito/fvrig^ of different genders).
Words which have distinct double fonns, either throughout or in part, are
termed tedundant. Those, on the other hand, that want some of the usual
forms, are termed defective.
The lists which follow are designed both to exemplify the different kinds of
anomaly, and Ukewise to present, in a classified arrangement, the principa
anomalous nouns. It will be observed, that some of the words might have
been arranged with equal propriety under other heads, from their exhibiting
more than one spedes of anomaly.
§ 1 3 3« 1. Metaplastb.
Metaplasm has mostly arisen from a change of the root, in the progress of
die language, for the sake of euphony or emfrfiasis, chiefly by the precessioii
oi an open vowel, or the addition of a consonant to prevent hiatus ; whfle, at
the same time, forms have remained frt>m the dd root, especially in the poets
and in the dialects.

2. A few diminutives and foreign proper names, whose root
onds with a vowel, receive g in the Nom., v in the Ace, and,
i^ the vowel admits it, an iota subscript in the Dat., but have
no further declension ; as
« ^anie (dim. from Jitovdragf Bacchus)^ G. Ai«yv, D. Aiavv, A. Ai«yv», Y.

want the singular ; as, r<^ Aitvvrta, the feast of Bacchus, ctl 'A^veci, Athens^
«i tTfitriett, the trade-winds,
§ 1 3 7* 4. Some nouns are employed only in particular

expression. Of this kind are,
Uftxsi body, form, Nom. and Ace. neut.
iv-UXtiv, surname^ Acc.^em. (= IwixXnm), commonly used adverbially.

^ 138. Adjectives are declined like substan
rives, except so far as they vary their form to de-
note variation of gender (§ 74. 8). In this respect,
they are divided into three classes, adjectives of
one, of twOf and of three terminations.
Note. In adjeddves of more than one tennination, the maseuUm ia re-
garded as the primaiy gender, and the root, theme, and declension of tiio
masculine, as the general root, tiieme, and declension of the word. The mode
of declining an adjective is commonly marked by sutgoiniog to the theme the
Ather forms of the Nom. sing., or their endings; and, if necessary, the form
jf the Qea, sing. Thus, S^mt, •«» ■ sa^nf^ 'it * piXttg, -d, ^n • i, n ^<«tff »
•«3«f , vi )j«r«(n>.
^ 139» I. ApjECTivBS OF Onb Termination are de-
clined precisely like nouns, and therefore 'require no separate
rules or paradigms. They are confined, in the language of
prose, to the masculine and feminine genders, and some of
them are employed in a single gender only. E. g.

§ 1 SO. II. Adjectives of TVo Terminations have tie
same form for the feminine a» for the mascuMne, but baye j
distinct form for the neuter in the direct cases singular and
plural. •
RiaiABKS, «. A4iectives which form the neater most be either of Dec.
II. or lU. (§ 79), and| if of Dec. III., cannot have either a labial or a pala-
tal characteristic (§101). To adjectives which cannot form the neuter, this
gender is sometimes supplied from a kindred or derived root ; as, •, ^ ^^v^S*
•^yst, rgpoMOUSf ri A^^tmnruciiit,
fi. The neuter must have two distinct forms, and can have only two, one
(br the direct cases singular, and the other ftnr the direct cases plural (§ 80).
Hence, every complete adjective must have two terminations. A neuter plural
Is sometipies given, though rarely, to a4i^eti^^ whiah do not iarm the neuter
singular; m, fimm wmr^it mirmr^m Mnr, Hare. U4, tdin»,., IwvXtiim Hdt

y. In ^/r0tf# (5 1 7), and in similar compounds of vrwt, foot^ the Neuter
aiqg;, on account el tbe difficulty of formmg it ftem the root, is formed from
the theme, after the analogy of eontrae^ of Deo. IL (^ 18) ; thua, «, ii U-

§ 181* HI. Adjectives of Three Terminations differ
fiom those of two in having a die^aot form: for the feminine.
It is only in the first declension that the feminine has a
distinct form from the masculine. These adjectives, therefore,
jnust be of two declensions, uniting the feminine forms' of the
first with the masculine and neuter of the second or ihireL
The feminine is formed according to the following rules.
Rule i. If the theme belongs to the second
declension, the feminine affixes of the first are an-
nexed to the simple root
If the root ends in f, i, p, or ^o, the feminine is declined like
amn • otherwise, like n/wij (If 7, § 93).

^133. Rule ii. If the theme belongs to the
third declension, the feminine affixes of the first
are annexed to the root increased by a (i. e. to the
theme before euphonic changes).
Thus, from the roots «'«yr., xx^nvr' (f 19), fiavXiunr-^ A^ttfT', ^tiufr
(^ 22), are formed the ftmmines (wdvrsetf w^f^m) wrA, {xm^Uvrrm, x*'
»fiV& (§§ 55, 57, 58).
The following spbcial kules are observed in the formation
of ^e feminine, when the'' theme belongs to Dec. III.
1. Afler B or o, the ^ which is added to the root becomes 0
(§ 50), which is then contracted, with e into ci, and with o
mto vt. Thus, from the tDots {jde- (fl 19), and ndot- (fl 22),
are formed the feminines (j^ddua^ ^Jeea) {^eZa, {eidotaa^ tUdoaa^
ddoBo) sidvTa.
K0TB8. «. The dijAthoiig w mmr stands before the affixes of Dec L
The ooDcmTenoe of open, rowels whidi woold be thns prodnoed seems to have
cBspIeased the Greek ear. Hence the oontractioii, in this case, of «• into the
doser diphthong ou
$. In the eoniraeted pmfiei partie^piet, irbicb. have a kmg vowel in tiie last
syllable of the root, the r remains. Thns, from r. Wrttr- (oontr. from irr«M'^
ih>m the vecfo Trr^^, to ttand) is formed the feminine (Irrwrra) UrSr&
rt 22).
y. The fern, terminatimi -cT^i is commonly shortened m Ionic prose, and
sometimes hi Egao and other poetry, to U (sometimes Ion. in, espetaaSly in
Hipp.); as, fim^im, tifU Hdt. L 178, fia^nt lb. 75, fia^int £. 147 (bat
fia^itif B. 92), ti»i» B. 786, «)m Theoc 3. 20, t»x^S9 Theog. 715. So,
even in Attic prose, Buttmann edits from the best Mas. n/uAag PL Meno,
83 c On the other hand, the poets, in a ftw instances, prolong .U of the
Nevt {d. to 'Ua for the sake of the metre (§ 47. N.) ; as, •^i/'k Hes. Sc 348,
Huk Soph. Tt. 122 (so rMtiiv for ^xtUv, Ap. Bh. 2. 404, Uiftfitn Id. 4.
1291).
2. After a liquid, the a which is added becomes e, which i»
then transposed, and contracted with the preceding vowel into
a diphthong. Thus, from the roots fisXav- (fl 19), tsQev- (r. of
Ts^i/y, tender)^ msg-^ are formed the feminines (fUXavaay /i»-
Xaspa) fiiXatySf (tigsvaaj itQCtva) Tigsiva^ nUtga (^ 134. d\
Compare §§ 56, 57.
3. If the root, after the addition of a, and the consequent
changes, ends m & or ^, the feminine is declined like ontd ' but
if it ends in a or y, like yXuaaa (fl 7, §§ 92, 93) ; as, ^^«Idf,
'^ddag • nao&y ndaiig ' fiiXat^va^ (itXalvrig (fl 19) ; nUiQa^ mdoag.
Observe that the a in the direct cases is always short See

CH. 3.] OF THREE TERMINATIONS. 1^
§ 1SS« Of those words which belong to the general class
of ADJECTIVES (§ 73), the following have tiiree terminations :— r
1. All participles ; as, fiovXeviav^ agag^ tldag (U 22).
Note. In participlesy which partake of the verb and the adjeetive, a cha-
tinction most be made between the root, affix, connectmg vowd, and JUxSM
ending of conjugation, and those of declension ; thna, in the genitive fiavktu^vr^St
the root of conjugation 1b fiwktv-, and the affix .Mr«f • while the root of de-
clension Is fitvktunr-, and the affix .«; •
2. All comparatives and superlatives in -og ; as, ^ro^oiTc^oii
-fi, -01', toiser ; aofptaiaiog^ -i?, -or, toisest.
3. All numerals, except cardin^ils from 2 to 100 inclusive ;
as, diaxoaioi^ -ai, -Oy two hundred^ rgliogj -i}, -of, third,
4. The article and adjective pronouns, except ife (rig). See
1124. ..
5. Simple adjectives m -o?, -etj, and -vj, with a few other
adjectives ; as, qtlXiog^ aoq>6gy xQ^^^og (fl 18) ; /or^i^, ^dvg ' tioj,
fiiXag (f[ 19) ; Ixcoy, -ovact, -oy, G. -orro?, tvilling ; taXagyaivaj
-cry, G. -ai'og, wretched ; tiqrivy -uva^ -cy, G. -ivog^ tender*
Notes. «. For the number of terminations in adjectives in .«# , only gen-
eral roles can be given. Fot the most part, simples have three terminationay
and compounds, but two. Yet some compounds have three, and many sim-
ples, particnhiily derivatives in .ii«f , .<«f , and -t/Ms, have but two. Deriva-
tives from compound verbs, as being themselves uncompounded, espedallj
those in -a^f , -r«f, and ^Uf, have more commonly three terminations, la '
many words, usage is variable. See y.
fi. Adjectives uk .i^, of the Attic Dec. 11., have but two terminations ; as^
l^(it\^ 17), i, li >^i«f, r§ tSytt*, fertSt. For *XU»$, see § 135.
y. In (a.) words in which the Fem. has commonly a distinct form, the
form of tlM Masc is sometimes employed in its Mettd. And (b.), on the other
Inuid, a diMinct form is sometimes given to the Fem. in words in which it is
commonly the same with the Masc Thus, we find as feminine,

from a kindred or derived root These fonriB may be eithei
required to complete the adjective, or they may be only specia

inines thus supplied most frequently end in -ig^ G. -idog, but

^ 1ST* L NuMEBAL Adjectives. Of numeral adjectives,
the principal are, (1.) the Cardinal, answering the question
noaoi; koto many ') (2.) the Ordinal, answering the question
noatog; which in order 7 or, one of how many 1 (3.) the Tem-
poral, answering the question, noatmog; on what day 7 or, in
how many days 7 (4.) the Mitltiple (muhiplex, having many
folds) ^ showing to what extent any thing is complicated; and
the Proportional, showing the proportion yvhich one thing
hears to another.
1. Cardinal. For the declension of the first four cardinals,
see IF 21. The cardinals from 5 to 100, inclusive, are inde-
clinable ; as, ol, oi, Tix, T(i)y, toX^, toilg^ tovg^ lag^ naVrc, fve.
Those above 100 are declined like the plural of (plliog (IT 18).
Notes. «. ETf , from its ngnification, is used only in the singnlar ; )i}*»»
only in the dual and plural ; and the other cardinals only in the plural (except
with coklective nouns, in such expressions as a^^'h i^v^m »m\ riT^sM-ZM,

y. Tile eommon form of the second cardinal is ^v«, shortened from the
regolar 3vw, which is by some excluded entirely from the Attic and from He-
rodotus. Tlie second form of the Gen. iuut is only Attic, and is even ex-
cluded from some of the best editions of good Att. writers. The Dat. pL
Wi occurs Th. viii. 101. Both ^m Qum) and a/^^«, both (which is placed in
^ 21,<as partaking of the nature of a numeral^ with that of an emphatic pro-
noun), are sometimes indeclinable (in Hom. never otherwise) ; as, )v« fAwSi*

§ 1S8. 2. Ordinal. The ordinal numbers are all de-"
rived from the cardinal, except ngmiog, and are all declined
with three terminations. They all end in -loi^ except dsvtfgog^
fSdofiog^ and oydoog. Those from 20, upwards, all end in ^oatog.

M0Jiluoiog or diMnnhxaioiP. The ratio of 1 to 1, or of equality
is expressed by toog (Ep, hog)^ -i?| -ov.

ways,
III. Numeral Substantives. The numeral substantives,
for the most part, end in -«?, -ddog^ and are employed both as
abstract and as eolleetive nouns. Thus, ^ fiugtag may signify,
either the number 10,000, considered abstractly, or a collection
■of 1Q,000. The^e numeral^ often take the place of the ordi-
nals, particularly in the expression of the higher numbers ; as,
dixa fivfidde^^ ten myria4s 7=- }00,QQO ; Ixoroy fivgiddtg^ a miU

forms of the peisooal pronouns ; 2d, the forms whidi ^ccur in Homer, whether
oommon or dialectic ; 3d, the principal other forms which occur. The fonns
to which the sign f is affixed are enclitic when used without emphasis (see
Prosody). When the oblique cases ISng. of lyti are not enditic, the loi^ger
forms ifUvj IftMf Ifti are employed.
2. The pronoun »v is used, both as a simple personal pronoun, and as a *»-
flexive. ia. the Attic and Common dialects, however, it is not greatly n. ed
in either sense, its place bemg commonly supplied by other pronouns. Hie
plur. forms ^fut and rff« first occur in Hdt. (viL 168, L 46). For the lim-
itations and peculiarities in the use of this pronoun, see Syntax.
3. Besides the forms which are oommon in prose, the Attic poets also eai-
ploy, (a) the Epic Genitives t^fS^*, ri5i», Z^» • {b) the Accusatives »/» and
r^, without distinction of numba* or gender ; (e) the Dat. pL rfh, which
even occurs, though rarely, both in Attic and in other poetiy, as sing. ;
Id) the DaLpL of iyti and ^i with the ultima short (especially Soi^odes) ;
thus, ii/iiv, vfiutt or fyift ^/ifv. See 5. below.
4. The DiAUEonc forms arise chiefly, a) from want of contraction, as,
4»i«, Sec ', (6) ttom protraction, as, ifttU, ^m, im, nfttifv, vfuu^t wptimt
(§ 47. K.> ; (e) from peculiar contraction, as, ifttZ, nv, iv t§ 45. 3) ;

$ 84), Dor. -0« (l/Atofj oontr. l^«vf, lutvf, ri*t, contr. r$ut, with t doubled
ri#£v, and, similarly formed, iovs) ; Dat. sing. Dor. -tp (i^;», rt?f, tiV, h, ;

§ 1 43« 6. History, a. The distinction' of /)er«on, like those of ca«« and
number (^ 83), appears to have been at first only twofold, merely separating the
person speaking from all other persons, whether spoken to or spoken of. We
find traces of this early use not only in the roots common to the 2d and 3d
persons, but also in the common forms of th^e persons in the dual of verbs.
The most natural way of designating one*s self by gesture is to bring home
the hand ; of designating another, to stretch it out towards him. The voice
here follows the analogy of the hand. To denote ourselves, we naturally
keep the voice at home as much as is consistent with enunciation ; while we
denote another by a forcible emission of it, a pointing, as it were, of the
voice towards the person. The former of these is accomplished by closing the
lips and mmrmuring within, that is, by uttering m, which hence became the
great root of the 1st personal pronouns. The latter is accomplished by sending
the vmoe out forcibly through a narrow aperture. This, according to the place
of the aperture, and the mode of emission, may produce either a sibilant, a
linpial, or a strong breathing. Hence we find all these as roots of the 2d
and 3d personal pronouns. In the -progress of language, these two persons
were separated, and their forms became, for the most part, distinct, although
tbur^ed, in general, upon common roots.
^ The M- of the 1st Fers. passed in the old Flur. (which afterwards be-
came the Dual. § 85) into the kindred y- (compare Lat. nos) ; and in the
Sing., when pronounced with emphasis, assumed an initial A (compare the i£ol.
Ar^it «r^i), which passed by precession into i. In the new Flur., the idea of
plurality was conveyed by doubling the f* {afitfit-t in the £p. and ^EoL a/4fttt,
dftfcimPf tif*/nv, afcfuft, AfAfAi) \ or more commonly by doubling the 4( to n
(§ 29), pronounced with the rough breathing (V-* i^^ A/uirf, &c.), or, in the
Dor., to « (*«/(*-• in *itft.Uy *iltAZfy *£fA4f, *afii). From this the new Flur. of
the 2d Fers. appears to have been formed, by changing, for propriety of ex-
pression, «, the deepest of the vowels, into v, the most protrusive (^^/a-, in the
£p. and ^Eol. Sft/Atiy lffi/titit*t SfA/AtVy Sfitfitt • and '9/u-, in u/u.t7s, &c) With the

ttxoeplon of this imitative plural, the pltir. and Pa. of the 2d and 3d per-
sons have the same root, in jRrhich plorality is expressed by joining two of the
signs of these persons (r^. a r -|- F)- bi the separation of the two persons,
the dgn r- be»une appropriated to the 2d Pers. (but in the Dor., r-, aa in the
Lat, and also in the verfo-endings -n, ^«», 'tis) ; and the rough breathing if
the 3d Pers. (in an early state of the language, this was F-; in Lat. it be-
came t- ; while in the iurtide we find both the rou^ breathing and r-i and in
verb*ending8 of the 3d Pers. both r, and more frequently r).
7. In the Noou img., the subjective fbrae appears to have baso expresnd
by peculiar modes of strengthening ; in the 1st Pen. by a doable prefix to
the /M, thus, i-y-i-ft (the y being inserted simply to prevent hiatus), or, as ^
cannot end a wordj Xyiv^ which passed, by a change of * to its corresponding
vowel (§ 60) and contraction, into (lytt) tym (compare the Sanscrit oAam,
the Zend azem, the Boeotic mt, the Latin «^, and the verb-ending ci the
Ist Pers. m in Greek, and o in Lat.) ; ui the 2d Pers. by aifixing F, which
with the praoeduig % passed mto tf in die oonunon Greek (cfl § 117. N.), but
in the Besot, mto •» (compare the Lat Mi, § 12. /3) ; in the 3d Pers. by
affixing A (perhi^M chosen rather than F, on account of the initial F), before
which precession took place (§ 1 18), so that the Ibrm became FiA, and from
this, 7A or 7A, and, by dropping the A, 7 or 7 (this obsolete form is cited by
4-pollonins ; compare the Lat. is, eo, id). With this Nom. there appears to
have been associated an Ace ?» or 7», of which ^i» and m are strengthened
fM*ma.

pronouns, from their nature, want the Nom., and the two first

II. Adjective.
§ 147* All the pronouns which are declined m ? 24 may
be traced back to a common foundation in an old definitivb,
which had two roots, the rough breathing and ?- (cf. § 143.
or, /?), and which performed the offices both of an article and
of a derrCbnstrativej personaly and relative pronoun,
REBfABKS. a. To this definitive tlM Gr«8to g»y« tbt nvm ^^(^h J4»i^
from its giving connection to discourse, by marking the person or Uiing spoken
•f as one which had been spoken of before, ar which was about to be tp<^en
9f (\trt)ier, OP which wdf faipili«r to the aiini^. The Greek name i^^f** b«*
can»^ in Uitin, ariieufm (amaU joints from artus, jomt^ a word of the same
origin with «e^^^M*), firom which has come the English name^ articie. This
definitive, when used as a demonstrative, or simply as ^e definite artide,
naturally pivcedes the name of the person or thing spoken of; but when
^^sed as a relative, usually foUowg it ; as, f Jrfr i^nt i &ffi( 8* iT^if, thȤ is
THK man wuoit you saw ; ri ^ihw S £f^iTy tub rose which bloonu. Hence, ii^
the fprmer qse, it was termed the fnvposit^j and, in the latter, the posipositivt
article. When prepositive it was so closely connected with the foDowing
word that its aspirated forms became proclitic
jS. In the progress of the langua^ the forms of this old DBFmrnvE be-
came specially appropriated, and o^er pronoims arose fron) it by derivation
and eompoflition (see the following sections). The forms rit and rq of the

•r empAods, in the Ionic (chiefly the Epic), and in the Doric ; e. g. «*«/ A

2. Relative, o?, ^, S. The postposUive^artide^ or as it is
now commonly termed, the relative pronoun^ has the orthotoM
aspirated forms of the old definitive.
Note. For the dd Mase. I (11. 835, /3. 262), as irell as for the Neat t,
■ee § 97. For the redupUcated Xw (B. 325) and Ut (n. 208), see § 48.
§ 149, 3. Iterative, a vTo?, -iJ,-o(§ 97). This pronoun
appears to be compounded of the particle av, again^ hacky and
the old definitwe tog (§ 147. /?). It is hence a pronoun of
RETURN (or, as it may be termed, an iterative pronoun), mark*
ing the return of the mind to the same person or thing.
Notes. «, The New Ionic often inserts t in avrit and its compounds,
before a long vowel in the affix (see § 48. 1, f 24). This belongs especially
to Hippocrates and his imitator Aretsus ; in Hdt., it is chiefly confined to
the forms in -^ and -4*$ of «vr«f and ^Jr^f • e. g. auri^j aMttv and avrih^
Hdt. L 133, »vritf r^urimv lb. iL 3. For the other dialectic forms of •vritf
see §§ 95, 96, 99.
/3. The article and mvrit are often united by craas (§ 39);* as, tturit,
rmuTov (§ 97. N.) or rauri (Ion. tmvt§ Hdt. i. 53, § 45. 6), rmir^Z^ rmyrm,
^ ItSO. 4. Demonstrative. The primary demonstratives
are ovro^, this, compounded of the article and aitog • o^«, this^
compounded of the article and de (an inseparable particle mark-
ing direction towards)^ and declined precisely like the article,
with this addition ; and inuvogy thaty derived from IxeT, there.
Note. Of 1x17*0; (which, with &XXh, other, is declined like alrott § 97)
there are also the forms, Ion. xiTvti, which is also common in the Att. poets,
Mo\. nmas Sapph. 2. 1, Dor. riiMf Theoc. 1. 4. In the Epic forms of tl%y
rtiJivhrt (p, 93, roTg'hff'g't K. 462, rMta-rtv ^.47, there is a species of double
declension.
Remarks. «. The definitives toiogy suchy Toaogy so greaty
ttiXUogy so oldy and ivwogy so litthy are strengthened, in the
same manner as the article, by composition with aviog and 5« •
thus, loiovtog and totovde, just suchy Toaovrog and xoaoodty just
so muchy tTiXixovtog and TtjXixoadty rvvyovtog. These compound
pronouns are commonly employed, instead of the simple, even
when there is no special emphasis.

B. Indefinite.
^ 1 ff 3* 1. The siMPLB indefinite is t^, which has two
roots, Tiv- dnd t«-, both appearing to be formed from t-, the
root of the article, by adding -iv- and -«- to give an indefinite
force (cf. § 146. N.).
Remarks. «. The later root rt9- is declined throughout after Dec. III., but
the earlier rt- only in the Gen. and Dat., after Dec. II. (except in the Gen.
Sing., which imitates the personal pnmouns) with contraction ; thus, rig, t^
Tlvtiy rtfiy &c. (§ 105. ^) ; G. ri« rav, D. riy rf, and, in the compound^
PI. G. IrM*» trmty D. Mart irtfi (also Ion. rliwr, ritt^t, § 153. y). For the
accentuation, and the forms eirTm, Jif^My see 2. below, and § 153. «.
/3.«The short s of rtf, rUiy and the omission of v in rr, suggest an inter-
mediate root «-, formed from «- by precession, and afterwards increased by
9 'cf. 5 119, and •;»«, k 123. y). To this intermediate root may be referred,
according to Dec II., the iEd. rif ; Sapph. 55 (34), riMrit Id. 109 (1 13).

CHAPTER VI.
COMPARISON.
^ ISS. Adjectives and Adverbs have, in
Greek, three degrees of comparison, the Positive,
the Comparative, and the Superlative.
I. Comparison of Adjectives.
In adjectives, the comparative is usually formed
in *T<^o$, -d, *ov, and the superlative in -raro^, -17,
•ov ; but sometimes the comparative^'^ formed in
'imv, 'Jov, Gen. -iovosj and the superlative^ in -unosj
A. Comparison in -ttgog^ -ruTog,
^ 1S6. In receiving the affixes -jsgos and
-TttTog, the endings of the theme are changed as
follows ;
1.) -og, preceded by a long syllable, becomes
-o- ; by a short syllable, -o- ; as,
aofpig^ wisest aofpwttifog^ ooiptitaTog.
RiEMARKg. «. This change to w». takes place to avoid the succession of
too many short syllables. Three successive short syUablas are inadmissible in
hexameter verse. We also find, for the sake of the metre, x«xtf|uv»ri^«f
V. 376, Xd(^rtiT§s ^ 350, iiZogtirt^^p P. 446, iTt^v^mrmr^t i. 105. In req)ec(
to »t*i$i emptyj and mvis, narrow, authorities vaiy.
fi. A mute and liquid preceding -§f have commonly the same efitBct as a
long (syllable ; as, rf 4^0^, pehemmtj f^oi^in^t, f^9i^ira*ot. Tet here, also,
the Attic poets sometimes employ .«. for the sake of the metre ; as, ^v^'v*.

Remarks. «. For the declension of eompaiatiyes in -^», see f 17 and
§ 107. The I in the affix -/«» is long ui the Attic poets, but short in the
Epic, and variable in the later.
/3. The forms in -rr«» and -^«y observe tins distinction : ^^mv can arise
only when the consonant preceding -ut* is », ;^, r, ^, or ^ ; ^«v, only when
this consonant is y. The vowel preceding becomes long by nature, perhaps
from a transposition, and absorption or contraction, of the i. Thus, T&^^f

CHAPTER VII.
GENERAL PRINCIPLES OP CONJUGATION.
^ 164. Verbs are conjugated, in Greek, to
mark five distinctions, Voice, Tense, Mode, Num-
ber, and Person. Of these distinctions, the first
shows how the action of a verb is related to its
subject ; the second, how it is related to time ; and
the third, how it is related to the mind of the
speaker^ or to some other action. The two remain-
ing distinctions merely show the number and person
of the subject.
Greek verbs are conjugated both by Pbefixbs and by Affixes. For the
prefixes, see Ch. VIII. ; for the affixes, see ^^28-31, and Ch. IX.; for
the modifications which the root itself receives, see Ch. X.
A. Voice.
^163. The Greek has three voices, the Ac
tive, the Middle, and the Passive.
The Active represents the subject of the verb as the doer
of the action, or its agent ; as, lot a nva^ I wash some one.
The Passive represents the subject of the verb as the re^
ceiver of the action, or its object ; as, Xovfiai vno uvog^ I am
washed by some one.
The Middle is intermediate in sense between the Active and
ihe Passive, and commonly represents the subject of the verb
as, either more or less directly, both the, agent and the oJ-
ject of the action ; as, iXovaii/irjv^ I washed myself, I bathed.
§ 166. Remarks. 1. The middle and passive voices
have a common form, except in the Future and Aorist. In
Etymology, this form is usually spoken of as passive. And
even in the Future and Aorist, the distinction in sense between
the two voices is not always preserved.
2. The reflexive sense of the middle voice often becomes so
indistinct, that this voice does not differ from the active in its
lise. Hence, in many verbs, either wholly or in part, the
middle voice lakes the place of the active. This is particu*

larly frequent in the Future. When it occurs in the theme
(§ J70. «), the verb is termed deponent (deponens, laying aside
sc. the peculiar signification of the middle form). £. g.
(a.) Verbs, in which the theme has the active, and the Future has the tnid^
dU form : §ix$vm, to hear, a»ov9fuu • fi»iw, to go, finrfuu • ytyttig^tut, to

Is recave, iytaftai, to be able, t(ia/teu, to rejoice.
NoTB. A Deponent Verb is termed deponent middle, or deponent paedoe^
•ooording as its Aorist has the middle or the passive fbnn.
B. Tense.
^167. The Greek has six tenses; the Pres-
ent, the Imperfect, the Future, the Aorist, the
Perfect, and the Pluperfect.
1. The Present represents an action as doing at the present
time ; as, /Qatpw^ I am writing, I write,
2. The Imperfect represents an action as doing at some
past time ; as, iyQaq>ov, I was writing.
3. The Future represents an action as one that will he done
at some future, time ; as, y^dtpa, I shall write.
4. The Aorist (ao^toro;, indefinite) represents an action
simply as done ; as, t/Qatpa, I torote, I home written, I had
written.
5. The Perfect represents an action as complete at the pres*
enl time ; as, yiyf&(pa, I hone written.
6. The Pluperect represents an action as complete at somA
past time ; as, iy8yQdg>6iVy I had written.
% 1 6S. Tenses may be classified in two ways ; I. with
rospect to the time which is spoken of; II. with respect to the
relation which the action bears to this time.
I. The time which is spoken of is either, 1. present, 2. fin'
tare, or 3. past.
Tlie reference to time is most distinct in the Indicatiye. In this mode^
those tenses which refer to present or ftttnre time are termed primary or chief
tenses, and those which refer to past time tecondary or historical tenses.
n. The action is related to the time, either, 1. as doing at
the time, 2. as done in the time, or 3. as complete at the time.
The tenses which denote the first of these relations may be termed definite f
the second, indefinite; and the third, complete. For a classified table of ths
Greek tenses, see ^ 26.

and the complete future, are supplied by f(Hrms belonging to other tenses, or
by participles combined with auxiliary verbs.
/3. Foi the general formalion of the Greek tenses, see f 28.
C. Mode.
^169. The Greek has six modes; the Ir<-
DicATivE, the Subjunctive, the Optative, the Im-
perative, the Infinitive, and the Participle.
1. The Indicative expresses direct assertion or inquiry ; as
y^qito^ I am writing ; yQWftvt ; am I writing ?
2. The Subjunctive expresses present contingence ; as, ov»
older, onot rgdniofjLai^ I know noty whither 1 can turn.
3. The Optative (opto, to wish^ because often used in the
expression of a wish) expresses past contingence ; as, otSx ^deii^»
Znoi tQttnolfitjVy Iknew notyWkUher Icouldtum.
4. The Imperative expresses direct command^ or entreaty ,
as, /^9)£, write ; tvntia&ta^ let him be beaten ; dog fioi^ give me.
5. The Infinitive partakes of the nature of an ahstract
noun ; as, yqdipuvy to write.
6. The Participle partakes of the nature of an adjeetwt^
as, yqdfp^av^ writing.
Notes. «. For a table of the Greek modes daasified aocording to the
character of the sentences which they form, see ^ 27.
/B. In the regular inflection of the Greek verb, the Present and Aorist have
all t}ie modes ; bat the Future wants ttie Subjunctive and Imperative ; and
the Perfect, for the most part^ wants tilie Subjunctive and Optative, and like-
wise, m the active voice, the Imperative. The Imperfect has the same form
with the Present, and the Pluperfect the same form with the Perfect, except
in the Indicative.
y. The tenses of the Subjunctive and Optative aie related to each other ai
present and past, or as primary and secondary, tenses (§ 168. L) ; and some
have therefore chosen to connder them as only different tenses of a general
conjunctive or contingent mode. With this change, the number and offices
0^ the Greek modes are the same with those of the Latin, and the correspond-
ence between the Greek conjunctive and the English potential modes becomes
more obvious.
D. Number and Person.

NoTB. The Imperative, from its signification, wants the p-tt permm ; th«
Infinitive, from its abstract nature, wants the distinctions of number and per-
son altogether ; and the Participle, as partaking of the nature of an Acyective^
has the distinctions of gender and case, instead of person.
Remarks. «. The first person singular of the Present indicative active, of
in deponent verbs ("> 166. 2), middle, is regarded as the theme of the verb
The ROOT is obtained by throwing off the affix of the theme, or it may be
obtained from any form of the verb, by throwing off the prefix and affix, and
allowing for euphonic changes. A verb is conjugated by adding to the root
the prefixes and affixes in ^^ 28 - 30.
jS. Verbs are divided, according to the characteristic^ into Mute, Liquid
Double Consonant, and Pure Verbs; and according to the affix in the
theme, mto Verbs in -a*, and Verbs in -fit (§ 208. 2). For a paradigm of
regtdar conjugation without euphonic changes, see Tf^ 34, 35 ; for shorter para-
digms of tiie several classes of verbs, see ^^ 36 - 60.
y. For a fuller view of the use of the Greek verb in its several f(nins, see
Syntax.
E. History of Greek Conjugation.
^171* The early history of Greek conjugation can be traced only in
the same way with that of declension (§ 83). The following view is offered
as one which has much in its support, and which serves to explain the general
phenomena of the Greek verb.
Greek conjugation, like declension (§§ 83, 143), was progressive. At firsts
the root was used, as in nouns, without inflection. The first distinction ap-
pears to have been that of person, which was, at first, only twofold, affixing /$
to express the first person, and a lingual or sibilant to express the other two.
Of this second pronominal affix, the simplest and most demonstrative form ap-
pears to have been -r (cf. §§ 143, 148). By uniting these affixes with the
root ^a., to say, we have the forms,
^afA, I or we tay, far, you, he, or they say,
§ 1 7S« A plural-was then formed by affixing the plural sign t (§ 83\
with the insertion of i to assist in the utterance. Thus,
1 Person. 2 and 3 Persons.
Sing. fdfA p»r
Plur. ^eifitf ^artf
Upon the separation of the 2d and 3d Persons (§ 143. jS), the 2d, as being
lass demonstrative, took in the Sing, the softer form s (in some cases, re
or #, in both which forms the # would, by the subsequent laws of euphony,
pass into St unless dropped or sustained by an assumed vowel, § 63) ; while
in the I'lur. there was a new formation (cf. §§ 84, 85), in which plurality
was marked, in the 2d Pers. by affixing i (cf. § 83), and in the 3d Pers. by
inserting » (cf. -f-t, § 85). The old Plur. now became, as in nouns (§ 85), a
Dual, and the S3rstem of numbers and persons was complete. Thus,

§ 1 7 3* The ^tinction of tense, like thw^Sjfejfe, case, and per*>
HOD (§§ 83, 1 13), was at first only twofold, limpl jmrfrtT|fpi|igliiii||| r prr Tf ac-
tion firom a present or future one. This was nataniUy done by prefixing «. (is
Sanscrit, Sr\ to express, as it were, the throunng back of the action into past
time (§ 187). This expression, it will be observed, is aided by the throwing
'uack of the accent. With the prefix of i-, a distinction was also made be<
tween the 2d and 3d Persons dual (perhaps because, the more remote the
action, the more important becomes the specific designation of the subject).
In the 3d Pers. the inserted • (§ 172) was lengthened to n, while in the 2d
Fers., as in both the 2d and 3d Persons of the unaugmented tense, it passed
into the kindred • (§ 28). We have now two tenses, the unaugmented Pri-
mary Tense^ which supplied the place of both the Present and the Future, and
the augmented Secondary Tense, which expressed past action both definitely
and indefinitely, and supplied the place of all the past tenses (§ 168). Thua«

^17 4* At first, there was no distinction of voice. The affix merely
showed the oonnecti<m of the person with the action, but did not distinguish
his relation to it as agent or obfect. This distinction seems to have arisen as
follows. A transitive action passes immediately from the agent, but its efiect
often continues long upon the object. This continuance would naturally be
denoted by prolonging the affix. Thus, if I may be pardoned such an illus-
tration, while the striker simply says with vivacity ru^rofA, I strike, 'the one
struck rubs his head and cries rv^r»/Mu, tuptom-ah-ee, / am struck. Hence
the objective form was distinguished from the subjective (§ 195), simply by the
prolongation of the affix. This took place in various ways, but all afiectmg
the personal and not the numeral element of the affix. If the affix ended with
the sign of person, it was prolonged by annexing, in the Primary Tense, eu ;
but in Uie Secondary Tense (on account of the augment, which had a natural
tendency to shorten the affix), the shorter 0, except in the Ist Pers., where a
species of reduplication seems to have taken place (-/»»/«, passing of course
into •fififf § 63). Thus -f* became -/am and ./uqy ; -f , -^eit and -^a ; -r, -reu
and .7« ; .vr, -vrai and -trs. If the* affix ended with the sign of number, the
preceding sign of person took a long^ form. In the 2d and 3d Persons, this
was r# (which might be considered as arising from the r by the addition of #,
since 7# must pass into r#, § 52). The 1st Pers., in imitation of the others,
inserted # (or, if a long syllabTe was wanted by the poets, *■#), after which
either « was inserted, to aid in the utterance, or, what became the common
form, the final v passed into its corresponding vowel « (§ 50). Thus .re, -rtf*^
•Ttif became -##•, 'O^fot, -^finf^ and -/aiv became 'fA%hf {•fAt^fiof), or commonly
"fAiia (.fii^fia). In respect to the form -/ut^tfy, see § 212. 1. We place the
•nbjective and objective inflections side by side for comparison.

^ 1 T T • In the penonal modtf a threefold distinction arose. Donbt
leads to hesitation in closing a word or sentence ; and hence the idea of con-
tmgatee was naturally expressed by dwelling upon the connectihg vowel (<«
upon the final vowel of the root), as if it were a matter of question whether
the verb oo^t to be united with its subject. The strongest expression of
contingence, that of past contingence^ protracted the connecting vowel, or final
vowel of the root, to the cognate diphthong in 1 (^ 3), and thus formed what
is termed the Optatwe mode, which, as denoting past time, takes the secondary
affixes ; thus, l^a^t ^«^) l<p»f*nf ^etifitif, ly^a^o/* y^a^atfA, ly^a^ftrif y^»'
^•ifMHf, The weaker expression of ccmtingenoe, that of present contingence,
as less needed, seems to have arisen later, after the conjugation with the cr/u-
necting vowels ••- and -1- had become established as the prevailing anal<»gy
of the language ; and to have consisted simply in prolonging these vowels to
-IT* and 'ti't attaching the same afiixes to all verbs. This weaker form, termed
the Svibjunctwe mode (yet see § 169. 7), as denoting present time, takes the
{nimary affixes. Thus, y^a(p$fi y^ei<pvfAt y^i^^/Mtt y^a(pMftaty pdfi ^tuifif
pifMu (pautfMu. llie original mode now became an Indicative^ expressing the
aetwd, in distinction from the contingent.
A third mode arose for the expression of command. This obviously requu>4
no 1st Pers. ; and in the 2d, it required no essential change, as thi^tone of
voice would suffidentiy indicate the intent of the speaker. There would,
however, be a preference of short forms, as the language of direct command
is laconic ; hence, we find in the objective inflection -0-0 rather than -roi, and
in the subjective, a tendency to drop the affix of the 2d Pers. sing. The
3d Pers., on the other hand, has throughout a peculiar form, in which the affix
is ttnphaticaHy prdonged. This is done in tiie Sing, subjective by adding m ;
thus, 'Tm. In the objective inflection, -r«, of course, becomes -sSm (§ 174).
The dd Plur., afterwards the Du., was formed by adding the plural sign »
(§ 172) ; thus, -Tt^ 'fitn. The new Plur. was still further strengthened by
prefixing » (whidi hi the ot^. form would make no change, cf. h 176), or by
adding the later plur. ending r«f (§ 181. y) instead of t ; thus, -vr«fy or
-r«raf, (-f^^Mv) -^iaif OX 'tittraf. In the 2d Pers., it is convenient to regard -#
as the proper flexible ending (§ 172). The system of personal modes is now
complete; thus, *

^ 1 7 S* We have, as yet, but two tenses, the Primary, denoting
p-ewnt and future time, and the Secondary, denoting past time, both definite^
and indefinitely. In a few verbs, mostly poetic, the formation appears never
to have proceeded farther. In other verbs, more specific tenses were developed
from these, as follows.
1. In most verbs, the Future was distinguished from the Present, and the
Aorist (the indefinite past) from the Imperfect (the defitdte past) by new forms,
in which the greater energy of the Fut. and Aor. was expressed by a r added
to the root (cf. ^ 84) ; and consequently, if the old Primary and Secondary
Tenses remained, they i^emained as Present and Impetfect The Fut. followed
throughout the inflection of the Pres., except that it wanted the Subjunctive
and Imperative, which were not needed in this tense. The Aor. had aU
the modes, following in general the inflection of the Pres. and Impf., except
that it preferred -a- as a connecting vowel, and simply appended the later af&z
-«i in the Inf. act. (§ 176) ; thus,

2. In many verbs, by a change of root, a new Pres. and Irapf. were formed,
which expressed more specifically the action as doing ; and in some of these
verbs, the old Secondary Tense remained as an Aorist (called, for distinction's
sake, the Second AorUt, § 199. ») ; and in a few, the old Primary, as a Fa-
tore (§ 200. b).
§ 1 79* Tlie complete teruee were, probably, still later in their forma-
tion. These tenses, in their precise import, represent the state conaequent upon
the completion of an curtum (rnv Wt^raXnv yiy^*^*, I have the letter written),
or in other words they represent the acdon as done, but Its effect remaining.
This idea was naturally expressed by an initial reduplication (§ 190). These
tenses admit a threefold distinction of time, and may express either present^
poMty or future completeness. The present complete tense (the Perfect) nat-
urally took the primary endings ; the past complete tense (the Pluperfect),
the augment and the secondaiy endings ; and the future complete tense (the
Future Perfect, or Third Future), the common future affixes. In the Perf.
and Plup., the objective endings were affixed without a connecting vowel ; and,
of course, with many euphonic changes. See tiie inflection of {yiy^^-fiai)
yiy^a/A/MMt (^ 36), vi^^y-fuu (^ 38), (^wiwut-fMu) ^iv'ttr/utat (^ 39), &C.
The subjective endhigs appear to have been at first appended in tiie same way ;
thus, Perf. Ind. yiy^uf-fSj Inf. yi^^^^-MM, Part. yty^»^9Tf, But all these
forms were forbidden by euphony. Hence in the Ind. -/a became -m (which,
since fi final passes into v, may be considered the corresponding vowel of ;« as
well as of V, § 50) ; thus, yiy^a^f* yiy^tt^a • and after this change the in-
flection proceeded according to the analogy of the Aor., except so far as the
primary form differs from the secondary. The « in this way became simply a
connecting vowel ; thus, yiy^a^a (or, if the analogy of the Aor. be followed
here also, yiy^m^-a-fA), yiyfec^-m-ff >a-r, -a-^ff, •«-ri, -A-vr, -a-rtv. In the
Part, 9 also became «, which by precession passed into a (^ 28). Indeed, in
Dec III. no masculine or fbminfaie has a root ending in -ar- (§ 76. d. 3).
Thus, yty^a^-irt. The » in the Inf., instead of a similar change (as it was
followed by «), took -i. before it ; thus, yty^a^-iveu. In the Plup. act., there
was a kind of double augment, prefixing i, both to the reduplication, and also
to the connecting vowel of the Perf., making the connective of the Plup. •!«- ;
thus, Uyty^^'tm-fA, This i« remained in the Ionic, but in the old Attic was
oontnuled into n, which afterwards passed by precession into u.
^ 1 SO* The middle and passive voices were at first uncUstinguished.
The fbrm simply showed that the subject was affiscted by the action, but did
not determine whether the action were his own or that of another. In tha

in oommon, that it is not wooderfnl that this distinrtinn was not always ob-
senred {k 166. \\ The Aor. and Fkit. pass, were aflat waids strengthsned by
the insertion of ^, which came, perhaps, finom employing in the composition

v^wr-H h U-ftix^' P^^om the prevalence of the ^, the tenses formed with
it were denominated ^Cni; and those formed wiOont it, seoontf tenses (§ 199. II.).
^181* The system of Greek coiyngstion was now complete, having
three permms, Arm nmatbers, three coices, six sKides, if the Snl^ and Opt. are
separated, and no fewer than eUvem tentes, if the Jirtt and efvomd an counted
separately. Some remarks remain to be added, chiefly upon eaqoAome ekemgee,
L By a law which became so estsbBahed in thelaqgoage as to allow no ex-

§ 1 83* lY. In the Greek verb, there is a great tendency to lengthen
a short vowel before an affix beginning with a consonant. This will be ob-
served in pure verbs before the tense-signs (§ 218) ; in the tense-^gns of tlie
Aor. and Put. pass. (§ 180); in the -<- often inserted in the Opt (§ 184);
in verbt m .fu before the tubfective emUngSy especially in the Ind. sing. (§ 224) ;
in the euphonic affixes -n and .i» of the Pres. and Put act (§§ 203. «,
206. j3) ; &c This tendency does not appear before endings. beginning with
vT, since here the syllable is aheady long by position. Of other endings, it
appears chiefly before the shorter ; hence, before the tubjecthe far more than
the objective, and in the Sing, more than the Plvr. or Du<d, We give here ex-
amples of the two last only of the cases that have been mentioned above : ptfu

§ 1 S 9* YL One important analogy we onght not to pass nnnotioed.
The oldest inflection both of vvrbs and of noons, that of the node Pres. and
Impf., and of Dec. IIL, had no connecting vowels. The next inflection in or-
der of time, that of the enphonic Pres. and Impf., of the Fat, and of Dec. 11.,
&M)k the connecting vowels ^. and -t - ; while the latest inflection, that of thCi
Aor., of the Perf. Act, and of Dec I., took the connecting vowd -«- (cf.
^ 176). Bat the analogy does not stop here. As some nouns flactnated
between the diffisrent declensions (§§ 124, 125), so eome forms of verbs fluc-
tuated between the difi^erent methods of inflection. Thus we find,
c.) Verbs in both -/u and -«, particulariy the laige class in -Vfu and .v«» ,
as, hixvvfu and ht»futt, to show,
$.) That verbs in -/m whose roots end in i, «, or », have, in the Impf. act
sing., a second and more common form in -«f ; as, •4'i#s» and (IriVf-o) WiSun
(t 50), U;)«f and i^i^ain (t 51)> i^</«»v» and Qu»t6»9 (t 52).

4 NoTB. These Aorists, bdng nude, agree In their formation with the Perf.
and Plup. (§ 179}, except that they want the reduplicatiuu.
I.) Poetic (chiefly Epic) Aorists which have the tenae-sign -r- with the
connectives -o- and -t-, and thus unite the forms of the 1st and 2d Aorists;
as, «iiVi« Horn. U. 16. 1 ; iCwiT§ v. 75, fivvio £. 109, 221 ; iv^tro H. 405,

V. 1 54. The use of this form in the 2 Pers. Imp. will be specially nuticedi
Perhaps the common 2 Aor. t^iwat, fell, and the rare, if not doubtful, ix*^»h
belong here.
^.) Aorists without the tense-sign -••-, but with the connecting vowel -«-.
See § 201. 2. Compare the omission of -^ both here and § 200. 2 with
§§117, 182. III.
«.) Reduplicated tenses, having the connectives -*- and -i-, and thus unit-
ing the forms of the Perf. or Plup., and of the 2 Aor. See § 194. 3.
NrrrB. These tenses of mixed formation are usually classed as Ist or 2d Ao-
nst according to the connective ; a classification which is rather convenient
than philosophical.
^ 1^0. VII. The formation of the complete tenses requires further
remark. The affixes of the Perf. and Plup. seem to have been originally
nude throughout, and they continued such in the objective inflection, inasmuch
as here each flexible ending has a vowel of its own. That this was the reason
appears from the fact, that in the subjective inflection also we find remains
of the nude formation, but only in cases where the flexible ending has a vowel
of its ovm. These remains abound most in the old Epic, but are also found
in the Attic (^^ 237, 238). The inflection with the connecting vowel, how-
ever, became the established analogy of the language ; so much so, that even
pitre verbs, no less than impure, adopted it (cf. § 100. 2). Here arose the
need of another euphonic device. The attachment of the open affixes to pure
roots produced hiatus, and to prevent this, » was inserted. TMs insertion
appears to have been just conunencing in the Homeric period. It afterwards
became the prevalent law of the language, extending, through the force of
analogy, to impure, as well as to pure roots. Other euphonic changes were
now required, for which see §§ 61, 64. 3. The history of the Perf. and Plup.
active, therefore, is a history of euphonic devices, to meet the successive de*
niands of pure and impure roots. The latter first demanded a connectin|
vowel : then the former, the insertion of -«- ; and thai the latter, that tliii
-X- after a labial or palatal mute should be softened to an aspiration uniting
with the mute. We have thus four successive formations : 1. the primitive
nude formation ; 2. the formation in -a, -uv ; 3. the formation in -xa, -xu9
after a vowel; 4. the formation m -»«, -»t<» after a consonant (after a labial
or palatal mute, softened to -&, -cit, ^61). The last formation nowhere ap-
pears in Horn., and the third only in a few words. The forms with the in-
serted » are distinguished as the Itrtt Perf. and Plup. ; and those without it,
although older, as the Second (§199. XL).

CHAPTER Vlll.
PREFIXES OF CONJUGATION.
^18T. The Greek verb has two prefixes
I. The Augment, and II. the Reduplication.
I. Augment.
The Augment (augmentum, increase) prefixes £-
in the secondary tenses of the Indicative^ to de-
note past time (^^ 168. I., 173).
A. If the verb begins with a consonant^ the «-
constitutes a distinct syllable, and the augment is
termed syllabic £. g.
Thieiiie. Impf. Aor.
^«vXf »«, to eommad, IC«vXcv«y, IC«^Xtcmu
ytm^t^m, to reoognizey iyMw^i^tfv, ly^m^t^m.
ftTTit, to Orow, i^tvrn, tfft^m, (§ 64. 1>
B. If the verb begins with a vowel^ the b- unites
with it, and the augment is termed temporal.
NoTB. Hie tyUaiie augment is so named, because it increases the number
of ty1laJbiU$; the temporal (temporalis, fit>m tempns, time), because it bcreases
the txme^ or ^Konttty, of an initial short voweL For the syllabic augment
before a voirel, see § 189. 2. The breathing of an initial yowel remains the
same after the augment.
§ 1 8 8. Special Rules op the Temporal Augment.
1. The prefix e- unites with a to form ly, and with the other
vowels, if short, to form the corresponding long vowels ; as,
*ii2<»l4M, to mfure, (!«)/»««») iiiuMn, (U)/»«#») Uttwufm,
*dix'ufy t9 eomteitd, ^\mf9, iMa««w.
iX^r/^, to hope, ^Xri^*?, HXwsem,
'Utrtvtn, to nyofSeale, *r«inM9, 'fminvrm.
i^Mty to erect, &fitn, M^mwm.
VC^iX«', to mmM, 'i7C^<C«f, "S^^t^m.
2. In like manner, the f- unites with the prepositive of tha
diphthong at, and of the diphthongs at; and oi followed hy a
eonBonomi^ as,
«iVU, to aek, fr»pf (§ 25. 8), ^#».
«^«»«, to inereaee, ni^w, «i2^r«.
•iMTi^m, to pity, #»'riC*», fmrt0».
^o also, ^r^fim, to ^mk, ^i^m^, ^„.

CH. 9.J AUGMENT. 168
3. In other cases, the «- is absorbed by the initial vowel or
diphthong, without producing any change ; as,
nytafuut to had, ityvfunf^ hy^tifin**
«i^Xi«», to profit, «^fX«ify, ^iXntrm,
t7»0tj to yidd, %4»»9f i3^«.
§i»niZ»fuu, to OMtgrnTf «M»M^«^ir», tlmwatiftum
•vrm,T^t0f to woundt §STmt^»», tSrm^m,
Note. In verbs beginning with tv, and in tltUH^m, to conjeeture^ and «l
•/»«, to dryy usage is variable ; as,
iSx^fttUy to projf, tlfx»/»n9t nhxifn*, tw^*/**!*, ifi|«/tif».
See, also, the PIup. ^tn (f 58), and Ijut (f 56).
§ 1 80. Remarks. 1. The verbs flovXofim^ to mUl^ dv-
raftni^ to be ablCy and fiiXXuy to purpose, sometimes add the tem-
poral to the syllabic augment, particularly in the later Attic ;
thus, Impf. iSovXofiijv ana ^SouXofitit^^ Aor. P. iGovXf^&tiv and ifiov^
Xii^tjp.
2. In a few verbs beginning with a vowel, the s- constitute*
a distinct syllable, with, sometimes, a double augment ; as,
JiyvfffUf to break, Iml^.
Ataiytt, to open, kfitfyn (§ 188. 2), Afitf^
Jtiitt^ to puik, Xmtatn, %i«rm»
Add kxietMftMt, to be eaptmred, kvitiftt (Ion. and Poet), to please, iftltt, to
•09, •»0im, Mdfuu, to bwf^ and some Epic forms. Cf. ^ 191. S. The sylla-
bic augment in these words is to be refterred, in part, at least, to an original
digamraa f% 22. I) ; as, iF«^«» ?«|a» y, 298, iv. 2. 20 ; Ifm^^mn UiUmn Hdt

S. 340.
3. In a few verbs beginning with <, the usual contraction of
ff into u (§ 36) takes place ; as, ^. 3 / ^*
l«*r, to permit, tXvy, t7«ir«.
Add Ui^ttt to ttceuatom, Ixieeat, to roll, tk»at, to draw, twtt, to be oeetqried
oith, i^m^tfttu, to work, ^wtt, to creep, Wr^aUt, to entertain, tx^i to haoe ; the
Aorists trx««, took, iUm, ( Ion. and poet. ), eet, %t/An and tl^ify (f 54) ; and the
Plnp. liVntxuy {\ 48), etood,
4. An initial «, followed by a vowel, remains in the augmented tenses of a
yer>' few vertM, chieHy poetic ) as, kit*, to hear, tin (yet iw-ifiri Hdt. 9. 93).
See, also, A»«XiV»« (^ 280). An initial m sometimes renuuns even when
Mowed by a coiksonant ; as, mt^'u^, to tting, tUr^tirn Eur. Bac 32 (cf. «n«,
$ 191. 3). So Uxifvir/ify (that the word "Exxn* may not be disguised), Th.
fi. 68, and in poetry l^tf^n*, tta0t!^if*nv, iEsch. £um. 3, Prom. 229. In these
words I is long by position.
5. An initial t followed by § unites with this vowel, instead of uniUng with
the augment ; thus, U^tit^^, to celebrate a jeoMt, (lt«^T«^«v) M^raJ^n. So,

II. Reduplication.
^ too. The Reduplication (reduplico, io re
double) doubles the initial letter of the completb
T£NS£S, in all the modes (§^ 168. II., 179).
Rule. If the verb begins with a single consonant, or with a
mute and liqtdd (except ^, and, commonly, /U and //), the
initial consonant is repeated, with the insertion of t ; but, other
wise, the reduplication has the same form with the augment.
In the Pluperfect, the augment is prefixed to the reduplication,
except when this has the same form with the augment. Thus

»MB, nxtiMiuv, This reduplication prefers a short vowel in £he penult ; as,

3. The yerb fAtfini(rM$t, to remember^ has, in the Perf., //tif/tvnfMti * xreiofAtci,
to acquire^ has commonly »i»Ttifiuu (i. 7. 3), but also tuTfifua (properly Ion.,

is not to be explained in both upon tiie same principle. Thus, in the Aor.
Xytm^i^m (§ 187), i- is prefixed u> denote past time, but in the Perf. lytu^txet
(§ 190), it b a euphonic substitute for the full redupl. y*- In like manner,
analogy would lead us to regard the Aor. HiUn'tt (§ 188. 1) as contracted
fVom U^/»«}^«, but the Perf. Hi'ncnKm (§ 190), as contracted fh>m autiUnttet^
the initial vowel being doubled to denote completeness of action. In the Per-
fects %lftM^tutt (R. 1 ), and X^m** (5 ^^\ the rough breathing seems to supply,
In part, the place of the initial consonant. Some irregularities in the redu-
plication appear to have arisen from an imitation of the augment ; as, Uv^«x«,
Unifuu (§ 190).
III. Prefixes of Compound Verbs.
^ I OJl. I. Verbs compounded with a preposition^ receive
the augment and reduplication after the preposition ; tlius,
^^•ey^a^ttf to cucribe, v^oa-iy^a^dv, v'^aryiy^m^m*
i^iXavftt, to drive out, f^«iX«t/v0V, i^tXnXtiita,
Rebiarks. 1. Prepositions ending in a vowel, except ti^/ and r^*, suffer
elisi<m (§ 41 ) before the prefix t-. The final vowel of «*(« often unites with
the I- by crasis (§ 38). Thus, m^gCtlxXa*, to throw away, mwiCmXXn • Tt^i^
CmXXtt, to throw around, xt^dCaXXn • ^rftCaXXv, to tiirow before, vr^siCaXXt
and w(»SC»xx»9,
2. Plrepositions ending in a consonant which is changed in the theme, re-
sume that consonant before the prefix t. ; as, ifiCdxx^, to throw m (§ 54),
UiUXXtf • UUxXtt, to throw out (§ 68), lliCaXXaw,
3. A/ew verbs receive the augment and reduplication before the preposi-
tion; a few receive them both before and after; and a few are variable; as,
itric-TM/uu, to understand^ *i9'i0'rafAri9 • Uo;^Xiai^ to trouble^ fi^uj^Xcuf, fivti^X9fK» •
jus/fi^d*, to sleep, iica4tv^of, »a4nvh»9^ and »a4tvt»v (§ 188. N.).
4. Some derivative verbs, resembling compounds in their form, follow the
same analogy; as, hatraM, to regulate <firom i!euT»y mode of ltfe)y ^t^mre
vnd i^i^rnrc, ^i)i^rn»«) iittn^riifAnv * inxXti^'tti^v, to hold an oMembly ( tKuXn-

DIALECTIC USE.
^ 1 04l» I. It was long before the nae of the augment as the sign
of past time (§ 173) became fully established in the Greek. In the old poets
it appears as a kind of optional sign, which might be used or omitted at
pleasure ; thus, l/if»i» A. 2, Snxi 55 ; *lf i^«r« A. 33, 457. 568, «}; far*
188, 245, 345, 357, 511, 595; KaXi A. 459, 473, ^«Xi 480, 499, 519,
527 ; i^tifu 2. 493, «^«^ii 498. This license continued in Ionic prose in
respect to the temporal augment, and the augment of the Pluperfect* and was
even extended to the reduplication when it had the same form with the tem-
poral augment ; thus, «y«v Hdt i. 70, iiyov iii. 47 ; AxtiXkaJ^ Id.L 16, avaX^
Xaeetrt 17; itvr%Xmv9»9ro Id. vii. 210, airn^Mvvn 211 ; h^vXt^rt Id. i. 94;

4). So, more rarely, in respect to the syllabic augment, and the reduplication
having the same form ; as, mii or iv«fi Hdt. i. 155 ; «'«^i0'xfv4)«T« vfi. 218,
m-afarutvaimr* 219 ; and even, for euphony's sake, iv-mXiXXiymro 1118. In
respect to the augment ot the Pluperfect, and of the impersonal i^fi** ^^
freedom remained even in Attic prose ; thus, tS^n TtrtXturnttts vi. 4. 11, ^r*.
Ithaxu lb. 13, luiCtCnMi vii. 3. 20 (this omission of the augment occurs
chiefly after a vowel) ; Ixfi* Cyr. viii. 1. 1, oftener x^nt Rep. Ath. 8. 6.
Of tlie poets, the lyric approached the nearest to the freedom of the old
Epic, while the dramatic, in the iambic trimeter, were confined the most closely
to the usage of Attic prose. Yet even here rare cases occur of the omission
of the syllabic augment (though not undisputed by critics), chiefly in the
narratives of messengers and at the begmning of a verse ; as, »rvmrt Soph.
CEd. C. 1606, fiytir»9 1607, ^^v^tt 1624, »dXu 1626.

I. Classification and Analysis.
(^ 195. The Affixes of the Greek verb may
be divided into two great classes ;
I. The Subjective, belonging to all the tenses
of the active voice, and to the Aorist passive.
II. The Objective, belonging to all the tenses
of the middle voice, and to the Future passive.
Nons. The affixes of the Aor. pass, appear to have been derived from the
tmpf. of the verb il/^i, to he ,* and those of the Fut pass., from the Fnt. of this
veib ($ 180). Hence the former are snligeetive^ and the latter, objective.
Of the affixes which are not thus derived, the tubfeetive represent the iubject
of the verb as the doer of the action, and the objective^ as, more or less directlj,
its obfeeL See § 165.
^106. The affixes of the verb may likewise
be divided into the following orders ;
1. The Peimaet, belonging to the primary tenses of the
Indicative mode, and to all the tenses of the Subjuncliye
(§§ 168, 169. r).
2. The Secondary, belonging to the secondary tenses of the
Indicative, and to all the tenses of the Optative..

3. The Imperative, belonging to the Imperative mode
4. The Infinitive, belonging to the Infinitive mode.
5. The Participial, belonging to the Participle.
^107. These affixes may be resolved into the
following ELEMENTS ," A. Tense-Signs, B. Con-

Note. When there is no danger of mistake, these elements may be dO'

A. Tense-Signs.
^198. The tense-signs are letters or syllables
which are added to the root in particular tenses^
and to which the flexible endings are appended,
either immediately or with connecting vowels.
In the Future and Aorist, active and middle^ and
in the Future Perfect (^ 168. a), the tense-sign is
'O' ; in the Perfect and Pluperfect active^ it is -x- ;
in the Aorist passive^ it is -ds- ; in the Future pas^
sivcj it is 'dtfa" ; in the other tenses^ it is wanting
See 1 31.
Thus, /Jovilsv-a-w, i6ovksv-(T-a^ fiovXsv-a-ofiai^ iSovXiV-a-dfAfi'*

§ 1 00. Remarks. I. The sign -^f-, except when followed
by a vowel or by vt, becomes -^i;- (§ 183). When followed
by a vowel it is contracted with it. Thus, i6ovXsv-d^f)-v^ ^ovXiv-

«-II. 9.] TENSE-SIGNS. 18if
NoTFS. «. The tense in the active and mieUBe voieeSf which is tenned the
Second Aorist, is simply an old form of the Imperfect (§ 178. 2).
/3. The regular or Jirst tenses will be usually spoken of simply as ihe Ao'
ristf the Perfect^ &c.
§ 300. III. In the FUTURE active and middle, changes
affecting the tense-sign often bring together two vowels, which
are then contracted.
1 . Th. tense-sign -a- becomes -«- (§ 50),
«.) In tho Future of liquid verbs. See § 56.
^.) In Futures in Arm, from verbs in -iT^M ; thus, Msfiirm (xtfitim) xofut,
»»fi,Uut Ktftttlvy »afAifft09 KafAMV • Mid. xafitirofitat {»»fuio/Aai) »»fn»dftmt, »•/*{'
atfffiat xofAttitafiett, xafiurifAtfos KafAitVfitvof (^ 40;.
y.) In the Future of xaH^afiett, to sit (root I'i-) ; thus, (xetfiiia-afMCt, xeth'

{jAa.$99fAMy -MftMf § 45. 3) fiahvfuti Theoc 1 1. 60. See ^dso b. below.
2. Some Futures in - auto and -eaw drop -a-.
Thus, IXkvw, to drive, F. Ikeirm (iX«w) U«, iXarus iX^St iXti^u IXf •
IXdffUf iXSf.9 • Ixdffoiv IXeiv * TiXiaf, to finish, F. rtXirv (riXitt) riXZ, riXiff%tt

ix'^'tifi X"'f) X*'f ' ^*^* (x't^ofMtt) ^MfAxu Add xaXtat, to call, fAa;^«fMcty
to fight, afc<ptivvvfitt, to clothe ; all verbs in -eivfufitt ; sometimes verbs in -d^u,
particidarly ^iSti^ai, &c.
Note. The contracted form of Futures in -aaoi, 'irot, and Aw, is termed
the Attic Future, from the conmion use of this form by Attic writers. It is
not, however, confined to them ; nor do they employ it without exception ;
thus, ixivatvett vii. 7. 55, rtXirovvn Cyr. viii. 6. 3. It is not found in the
Optative. A similar contraction appears, in a few instances, to have taken
place in other Futures; thus, %^fi[Ativr% \ will you lay waste? for l^tifuirtTif
Th. iii. 58.
3. A few^ verbs, in the Future middle with an active sense,
sometimes add e to -a-, after the Doric form (§ 245. 2).
Thus, crXiw, to sail, F. ^Xtweftat, oftener (jorXtv-A-afiai) xXtwoufAxt * ^tvyvj
to flee, ^tvlafiiai and (^tv^Ufctti) ^tu^avfixs. This form of the Future is termed
Hi Doric I\tture. Other examples in Attic Greek are xXaiu, to weep, vim, to
gwtm, «'«i^«, to sport, w^iirrm, to folly ^ti»i, to blow, 9rvv6iinfAeuy to inquire^
X*l^'
BxAkBXi. a.) The liquid, Attic, and Doric Futures, from their formation,
are inflected like the Present of contract verbs (ft 45, 46). It will be ob-
served, that in a few verbs the Pres. and the Att. Fut. have the same form.
b.) In a very few instances, the Fut. is in form an old Pres. (§ 178. 2) ;
as, Ufim, to eat, F. ti»iMu, A. 237, Ar. Nub. 121 (m later comedy l^»tl^««,
cf. y. above) ; r/w, to drink, F. «-/#/tMei, ». 160, Cyr. i. 3. 9 (later vfvfjutt) ;
CfM, to go, commonly used as Fut of t^x^/Mit. Add a very few poetic fermf ,
which will be noticed under the verba to which they belong.

3.) Is the same with that of the Perf. in Uti»», tUix*, and « »«. These

NoTB. These Aorists in .k» are only euphonic extensions of the 2 Aor.,
after the analogy of the Perf. First ^e final -» (originally -/t*) passed into
.«, which became a connecting vowel; and then -»- was inserted to i»^
vent the hiatus (§§ 179, 186) ; thus, Un-t Uti-» Uft-x-tc, Ufix^t^ ihxi, UnxMt •
ttuv ^x«, iv ^xm. This form became common only wh^re the flexible end-
ing had no vowel (cf. § 186), i. e. in the Sing, and in the 3d Pers. pL ; and
was properly confined to the Ind. act., although a few middle forms are found
after the same analogy. The nude form disappeared in the Ind. act. sing,
(cf. § 186), but was elsewhere either the sole or the common form. Sea
i\ 50. 51, 54.
B. Connecting Vowels.
^ a09. The connecting vowels serve to unite
the flexible endings with the root or tense-sign,
and assist in marking the distinctions of mode and
tense.
Notes, a. In each tense, that which precedes the connecting vowel (or^
if this is wanting, the flexible ending) may be termed the base of the tense
(fiti^it, foundation) ; as, in the Pres. of- /Sai/Xi t/«, ^uXtu- ; in the Fut., /Smt.
XtM-. ; in the Perf. act., /SiCflvXii/*..
/3. The regular additions, which are made to the base in tlje Present and
Future, are throughout the same ; as, ^avXiv-tt, ^ouXivv-et, li^yXtv-ut, fitvxUe
tiS * fiotfktv-tiftit ^ovX%v9'«tfu • fiavXiv-o/AOi, fiavXw-o/Aettj ^ovXtvHff-ofMu
§ 3 OS. I. In the INDICATIVE, the connecting vowel is >a-
in the Aorist and Perfect, and -h- in the Pluperfect ; in the
other tenses, it is -o- before a liquid^ but otherwise -<-.
Thus, A. lC«t/Xiv0'^-^y, KtvX%W'$i.fAn9 * Pf. fiiUuXtux-m-tAiv ' PIup. iCiC«v.

the Ion. (§ 179);.as, ^M S. 71, Hdt. ii. 150, IrtMwut ^. 166, i«WikMif
A*. 90, pu B. 832, pn'f 2. 404, lytyivu Hdt. i. 11, ^-t/y^^Un Id. ix. 58.
The earlier contraction into -if- is especiaOj old Attic, but also occun in the
^p. and Dor. ; as, I Pen. ftti Soph. Ant. 18, In^rovfiti Ar. Ecd. 650, xtx^vn
Id. Ach. 10 ; 2 Pers. ^^hns Soph. Ant. 447, ^hiaia, r, 93, Iktkn^nt Ar. £q.
622 ; 3 Pen. ^n A. 70, Soph. (Ed. T. 1525, iktknfti Theoc. 10. 38. By
precession (§ 29), -n- passed into -t/-, which became the common connective^
and in the 3 Pers. sing, is already found in Hom. (arising from -ii) ; as, 1^x4^
»u 2. 557 ; so XtX^iitu Theoc. 1. 139. In the 3 Pen. pi., -*»- became -t-,
by the omission of the «, which was only euphonic in its origin (§ 179). So,
hLthe 2 Pers. pl^ pir* tor pitn, Eur. Bac 1845.
§ 304# II. The SUBJUNCTIVE takes the connecting vowels
of the Pres. ind., lengthening -«- to -ij- and -o- to -»- (§ 177).
Thus, Ind. ^•vXtu-m, Subj. /SfvXfv-w, /3«0Xivr-«* fiaukiv-u-t, fiovktv-if't,
Xiv-t-rt, fiwXU-n-rt' (/SfyXitf-tf-ytf*/, fi§pXtP'0t-90t, § 58) fi»¥Xtv»»n, fiifXw&mtri*

%99S. in. The OPTATIVE has, for its counective, i, either
alone or with other vowels (§§ 177, 184).
Rule. If the Ind. has no • connecting vowel, and the hase
ends in a, s, or o, then the i is followed hy ri in the subjective
forms, but receives no addition in the ohjective. In other
cases, the i takes before t< a in the Aor., and o in the other
teases. The connective i always forms a diphthong with the
preceding vowel.

the longer form is rare in dassic Greek (U«'M*^<i«r«y Th. L 88).

Note. The paragogk v (§ 66), which is regularly affixed only to i and
simple I, is, in a few instances, found after -n in the Plup., and follows ^ in
the Irapf. of ilfil, even before a consonant; thus, 3 Pers. piiv is {^ &8)

^$812. First and Second Persons Pl., with the Dual.
1. The 1st Pers. is the same in the Plur. and Du., having, for
its subjective ending, -^cy, and for its objective^ -fitda^ or some-
times in the poets, -fiBo&a ' thus, fiovUvo-fisv, povltvo-fAh&a^
and poet. fiovXevo-fieo^a.
Note. Of the form in 'fitfw (§ 174), there have been found only three
dasaica] examples, all in the dual primary, and all occurring in poetry before
a Towel: wi^ih^fAiSof Y. 485, \tXu/».fu6»f Soph. £1. 950, i^/buifit^tv Id. Ph.
1079. Two examples more are quoted by Athenseus (98 a) from a word-
hunter (if»/*ecTo4n^ccs), whose affectation he is ridiculing.
2. The 2d Pers. pi. always ends in -«. The 2d Pers. du. is
obtained by changing this vowel into -op ; and the 3d Pers. du.,
by changing it into ~ov in the primary inflection, into -lyv in the
secondary^ and into -wv in the imperative. Thus, PI. 2, fiovlsv-
ftty i6ovXtv8T8 * Du. 2, PovXimtov^ iSovXeveToy * Du. 3, povXsitxov^
iSovXsvstfiv^ PovXivixoiv,
Rbkabk. In the $eeondary dual, the 3d Pers. seems originally to hare
had the same form with the 2d ; and we find in Horn, such cases as 3d Pers.
^iiwxir«v K. 364, nrivj^^m N. 346, XM(pvra-iT»9 2. 583, ^M^n99%0^6a¥ N. 301.
On the other hand, the lengthening to -ify (with which compare the lengthen-
ing of the Plup. affix, § 179) was sometimes extended by the Attics even to
the 2d Pera. ; as, 2d Pers. lixirnf Soph. CEkl. T. 1511, hxXmH^mv Ear. Ale.

2. Tn the Perf. and Plup. pass, of impure verbs, the 3d Pers.
d1. is either formed in -atai and -aio (§ 60), or, more com
monly, supplied by the Part, with sial and ^oav (fl 55) ; as»
fipdii^ajiMi Th. iii. 13, from (p^Hgat (r. qy&aQ-), to waste, ys"
yqafifiivoi tial, ys/gafifiivoi, rjoav (jj 36),
Rebiark. The forms in -arm and .«t« are termed lomie. Before tl^ese
endings, a labial or palatal mute most be rough (^, ;^), and a lingual, middle (S) ;
as, from r^i^rai (r. t^***-), to turri^ {rir^aTt-vTeu) rtr^i^arat PI. Rep. 533 b ;

Th. vii. 4. . , V
3. In the Imperative, the shorter forms in -nwy and -a&np
(§ 177), which are termed Attic (§ 7), are the more common.
In Homer, they are the sole forms.
Note. In t^^v and Irttv (f f 55, 56), :he old plur. form has remained
without change.
§ 9 1 41. 1. Infinitive. The subjective ending, after -«*•
connective (§ 206. ft), has the form -v ; after -a- connective, -*
forming a diphthong with -u~ ; but, in other cases, -vat. ; as,
povXtii-H'V^ fiovXivo-H-v * PovXfVO-a-i ' /ieSovXevx-s-vai, povlsv^rj"
rai ' hrtd-vai, orii-vat, koTcl-vai (fl 48). See §§ 176, 183.
2. Participle. For the change of »' to a connecting vowel
in the Perf. act., see § 179. For the declension of the Paru,
see Ch. HI., and the paradigms (IT 22).
^ 31ff* Bemarks. I. For the reoulab affixbs of the verb,
whicn are those of the euphonic Pres. and Impf., and of the regularly formed
Fat., Aor., Perf., and Plup., see H 29, 30. These affixes are open in the
I*res. and Impf., and date in the other tenses. For the affixes of the Pres.
and Impf. of verbs ih -/m (§ 208. 2), see 5T 29, 30. The affixes of the
2d Aor. fct. and mid. are the same with those of the Impf. (§ 199. «), or,
except in the Ind., the same with those of the Pres. (§ 169. /3). The affix-
es of the other tenses denominated second (except the nude 2d Perf. and Plup.,
§ 186) differ from the regular affixes only in the tense-sign (§ 199. II.). The
Fat. Perf. or 3d Fut. has the same affixes with the common Fut. act. and
mid. (§ 179).
2. Special care is reqpiired in distinguishing forms which have the same
letters. In ptovXivM (55 34, 35), we remark (besides the forms which are the
nme in the Plur. and Du., § 212) the following: Ind. and Subj. ^tvXtvw

3. With respect to the changes which take place in the root, or in the unioi^
of the affixes with the root, the tenses are thus associated : 1 . the Pres. and
Impf. act. and pass. ; 2. the Fut. act. and Mid. ; 3. the Aor. act. and mid.
4. the Perf. and Plup. act. ; 5. the Perf. and Plup. pass. ; 6. the Aor. and
Fut. pass. It will be understood, that whatever change of the kind mentione*!
above takes place in one of the tenses, belongs likewise to the &<^sociated tensi^,
if nothing appears to the contrary. For the Fut. Perf., see § 239.
II. Union of the Affixes with the Root
A Regular Open Affixes.
^ a 1 6. When the regular o^en affixes (^ 216. 1 )
are annexed to roots ending in a, f, or o, contrac-
tion takes place, according to the rules {W 31 - 37).
See the paradigms (HH 45-47).
Notes. «. Verbs in which this contraction takes place are termed Cow-
tract Verbs, or, from the accent of the theme, Perigpomena, In distinction
from them, other verbs are termed Barytone Verbt. See Proeodj.
;3. The verbs x««, to bum, and kXom, to weep, which have likewise the
forms na'iM and xX«i«, are not contracted. Dissyllabic Verbs m -iai admit
only the contractions into u ; thus, 9fXm, to saU, v'Xiuf m-XtTg^ vXiii 9'Xu,
itXufttVf fl'Xifri ^XtiTt, 9rXi»u^t. Except ^i*>, to bi$ui; as, to ^ovv, rip levvr
PL Crat. 419 a, b.
y. The contract Ind. and Subj. of verbs m -«m» are throughout the same. *
See ^45. The contract Inf. in i^y is likewise written without the i subsc. ;
thos, rtfiZft as contr. from the old nfiatv (§§ 25. /3, 176, 183). So ^4Xu9,
InXouv may be formed from the old pxitv^ inXitv,
B. Regular Close Affixes.
§ 917. I. When the close affixes 9re annexed
to a consonant, changes are often required by the
general laws of orthography and euphony ; as,
^(^(pot (^ 36, root y^«^-) » y^lB^^«, lyf«^^•, yiy^m^peti (§ 51) ; yiy^m^m^

etry for the sake of the metre) ; as, xcxXz/^ai, IkXI^v and UXi»^*}v, F. 360,
H. Gr. iv. 1. 30 ; »i»^i»«, »ix(4fMn, ix^i^m and £p. U(i»^*}y, N. 129.
jS. In other verbs, » characteristic, before ^, more frequently becomes *-, but
sometimes becomes f* or is dropped (§54) ; as, Ti(paff/Aett, <ri^«^ftivos (^ 42) ;
ra(0^(;v«, to exasperate, Pf. P. Part. ^a^M%vfA/Ai*»f or va^uj^o/iiv^t^
y. Before fn in the aflix, neither ft nor y can be doubled ; hence, xixaftfiat,

•)H. 9.] VERBS IN -/I*. 201
§ 285« 11. If the characteristic is e, o, or v, the singidar
of the IMPERFECT ACTIVE is comiTionly formed with the con*
necting vowel (§ 185. /J) ; thus, dri&sov^ contr. iii&ow^ iu&ss^
itl&sig^ hi&ie hi&Bi ' ididoov ididovv idsixwov (JI^j 50-52).
Remark. In like manner, the regular affixes sometimes take the place of
the nude, in other forms, particolariy in verbs in -vfn^ which may be regarded
as having a second but less Attic theme in -vm (§ 1 85. «) ; thus, hixtu/Ai and
iti»9Vt0f itixvS^t and ttiJtvvu, ihtixvvtrmv and ihtixfveVf tttxyv§ and iuxfvtuu
§ 296. m. Subjunctive and Optative. 1. In the
Subj., verbs in -/it differ from other verbs only in the mode of
contracting -ari and -otj (§§ 33, 37. 3) ; thus, faia-ai tatuj
iata-jjg Un^g ' latd-tofiai iatcafiai^ iatd^ii latfj ' ri^i-m Tt^w,
dido-ijg did^g ' dido-ta^ai diddi/iaiy dido-tf didat * detxvv-(a^ dsixvv^
ttuai ' i-a (tf 56). If, however, q precede -«iy, the contraction
is into a ; as, anodgag (fl 57).
2. Verbs in -Wjui have a second form of the Opt. act. in
-^97v, H hich is most frequent in late writers, but is not confined
to them , as, aAwij I 183 {dXolrjv X. 253), /Jt^'ijy Ar. Ran. 177
(the other form is not used in this word, perhaps to avoid con-
fusion with the Att. Pres. opt, § 205. 2), /Ji^ij PL Gorg. 512 e.
3. In the Opt. mid., «*, if not in the initial syllable^ is often
changed before the flexible ending into oi^ in imitation of verbs
in -0) ; thus, n^olfitiv^ Xolfitiv (^^ 50, 54), and the compound
forms, ini&olfAfjv^ aw&olfifjPy i. 9. 7, Jigoolfitjv^ lb. 10. So even
xgifioiade for xQifiaia^s^ Ar. Vesp. 298 ; fnxgvolfn&a for fiag^
vaifif&a^ I. 513 ; and a<ploiT8 for aq>Unt^ PI. Apol. 29 d.
4. In a few instances, verbs in -vfu^ instead of inserting a connecting vowel
in the Subj. and Opt., simply lengthen the y (cf.,^ 177) ; as, ^mtxiiitw^t,
tix^xiirnvturat for iteta-xi^ectvui^, iiet^xiietvvvn'reiti Pl< Phaedo, 77 b, d; vny^Br^
for irti'yvu»$T«, lb. 118a. Add the poet. Ixiufin* II. 99, (pun Theoc. 1 5. 94,
taivOrt fl. 665, ^«iirtf«r« (for -Sfri) #. 248 ; and the similarly formed ^ifftn*
«. 51, ^^T0 X. S30.
§ 227. IV. Second Aorist. The 2 Aor. from a pure
root retains the primitive nude form^ whatever may be» the
form of the theme (§ 185. y) ; as, Iffiyy, am'dguv^ syviav^ sdCr

h, ^r% or rather ^-r-n. The Old-AU. f&rm of the 1st Pers. ^ {Ai, Av. 1 363),
and the Sd Pers. jr»» appear to have been contracted from ^m, and Hit (cf. $ 1 79,

tenses, by a natural transition (see S3mtax), passes into that of
other tenses ; and the Perfect becomes, in signification, a
Present ; the Pluperfect, an Imperfect^ or Aorist ; and the
Future Perfect, a common Future. Thus, loirifii (51 48), to

Remark. In a few of these verbs, ihe Pres. is not nsed, and the Pbrf. is
regarded as the theme. Such verbs, as having a preterite tense for the theme,
are termed PBETBRmvB. See ^^ 58, 59.

the Second Perfect and Pluperfect are annexed with the
following changes in the preceding syllable.
1.) e becomes o, and n becomes ot ; as, fisva, to remain^
2 Pf. fiifiora * diyxofiai^ to 566, poet, dsdoQxa ' X$inoty IsXoma
(fl 37) ; n$l&a, ninoida (U 39).
Notes, (a) The same changes take place in the Ist Perf. and Flap,
of a few verbs ; as, «Xi«'r«», to steai^ »i»Xo^a • rfivfj to *«m, rir^o^a • vifA*
«r«, to send, vmfi^m • 'hiluxct (^ 58). (6) Analogous to the change of i
into «, is that of n into •$ in fytyvvfju, to break, 2 Pf. iffttyet. (c) In the fol-
lowing Perfects, there appears to be an inseition of # or •» (§ *22i>. fi) : &yat,
to lead, ayn»x» (^ 191. 2), Dem. 239. 1. Uft»t, to eat, iUlojKt, iv. 8. 20 (Ep.
Pf. P. iJ«3«^«i, X' 56), «W« (r. U'\tobewont, preteritive, o'!x»'*» (§ 22i :J).
{d) In the following dialectic forms, the change or insertion of vowels has
extended to the patthe : it^ittvrttt (§ 229. e) ; it^v y. 272, Theoc. 24. 43,

PI. 3 of Uix" ' i^^'>/*»t (N. c).
2.) Short o, I, or u, before a single consonant^ is lengthened
(a, not preceded by e or ^, § 29, becoming jj) ; as, (puiro)^ ns-
<pi?i'« (H 42 ; r. (pav-) ; ^dUo), <o bloom^ Tt^i^ka • ayvifii (r. «/-),
to breaky %uya * x^a^ai, nixqaya (^ 238. /?) ; xcx^(/nr (r. x^(/ ),
to creaky pret. ; fivxtiofiai (r. ^vx-), to bellow^ fiifivxa.
Exceptions. After the Attic rednplication, the short vowel remains ; as,
KiiXvlai (§ 191. S). In xirjKw (r. Xcx-), to Mmiu^, « is not changed into ir
in the Att ; thos, 2 Pf. x.ix£»a, Ar. Ach. 410 (XtXuxo, X. 141).
§98 7. IV. Nude Forms. In the Second Perfect and
Pluperfect, the connecting vowel is sometimes omitted in the
Indicative plural and dual (^ 186). When this omission takes
place, (a) the Ind. sing, is commonly supplied by forms from
a longer base (cf. § 201. N.); which forms likewise occur in
the plural and diudy but less frequently ; (b) the Subj., Opt.,
Imp., and Inf. are formed after the analogy of verbs in -/i* ;
(c) the Part, is contracted, if the characteristic is a or o.

§ 940. VI. The student will observe, in respect to the
complete tenses, the following particulars, which are far more
striking in the Act. than in the Pass, voice (§ 256) ; 1. their
defective formation ; 2. the entire want of these tenses in many
verbs ; 3. the comparative infrequency of their use ; and 4. their
more frequent occurrence in the later than in the earlier
writers.

208 AFFIXES OF CONJUGATION. [bOOK U.
DLAXECTIC FORMS.
A, Contraction.
§ S 411 • Forms which are contracted in the Att. (and which are alat
commonly contracted in the Dor., but often with a different vowel of contrac-
tion) mure frequently remain uncontracted in Ion. prose, while the Ep. has
great freedom in the employment of either uncoiitractedy contracted^ or variously
protracted forms. Here belong, Ontract Verbs in .«*>, -lar, and-«M (^ 216)^
the Uquid, Att., and Dor. Fut. (§ '200), the Aor. Pass. Sabj. (§ 199), the
Subj. of Verbs m -fii (§ 226), and the 2d Pers. Sing, in -tu and -« (§ 210
S). In these forms, the first vowel is either (I.) a, (II.) i or i}, or (UL) e^
Of these, i or fi is far the most frequently uncontracted.
§ 343* I. TTte first vowd a. (a.) In the Ion., the « is commonly
contracted or changed into i (§ 44. 2) ; and when » with an O vowel is con-
tracted into «, i is often inserted (§48. 1, cf. § 35). Thus we find, as va-
rious readings, i^mtTu^ i^iovrtf^ and a^Lvtrif, Hdt. i. 82, 99. So IttfSfAiw

Note. In the 2 Pers., the termination -m* commonly remains ; as, 1;^^*
r«« Hdt. i. 117, Wlfrmt viL 209.
(b.) In the Ep., protracted fbrms are ipade by doubling the vowel of con*
traction, either in whole, or in part (i. e. by inserting one of its elements, or
its corresponding short vowel, commonly « with *», and £ with «, § 48) ; and
sometimes by prolonging a short vowel, particularly i used for « to n ; as,

(b.) The Ep. conmionly omits contraction if the last vowel is *», ^, m, or tv
(^except in the Aor. pass, snbj., and in the Perf. subj. tii£) ; but otherwise
employs or omits it according to the metre (i«, when contracted, becoming tv ;
yet tvo^avf A. 308, etn^ fibroin v. 78). Synizesis is frequent when i pre-
cedes a long O vowel, and sometimes occurs in 101*, and even in tat. The Ep.,
also, often protracts t to li, and sometimes doubles the vowel of contraction 4.

^ 94:4B« 1. In verbs in .^«r, the Dor. commonly employs | for 0-, in
the Put and Aor. ; as, xaftlat Theoc. I. 12, for xai'tcatt from xet^i^m, x'^i'^
5. 71, ixafn^ttv Find. N. 2. 31. This change appears also in a few o^er
verbs in which short « precedes; as, y%Xa^as Theoc. 7. 42, l^^a^a 2. 115,
from ytkeiv (§ 219. «), pieipw (§ 278). Similar forms sometimes occur in
other poets besides the Dor., for the sake of the metre ; as, ^^tn^tldfttv*
Mach, Sup. 39, iXj^tt Ar. Lys. 380, U^Xi^cj (^Xvm) Ap. Rh. I. 275.
2. In the Put act and mid., the Dor. commonly adds to the tense^sign 1,
which is then contracted with the connecting vowel ; as, (f 0-i*») f^Z Theoc
1. 145, {ftritfuu, § 45. 3) f^tvfuu 3. 38, wtmtrtTt .3. 9, &lp I. 11, «r4^^/^l7 6.

3. The Ep. employs the Att Fat (§ 200. 2), both uneoniracted, contracted,
and protracted; and has also other examples of the Fut with «* dropped (or
df the Pres. used as Fut) ; as, ifou A. 365, l^vov^s 454, ;^ii;a» /3. 2-22. Sd
i»yiym»9rtu (from Pf. base ytym», see §§ 238. «, 239. c) Horn. Yen. 198.
4. The formation of the I Aor. withont r is extended, (a) in th6 Ion. and
poet language, to a very fow liquids, in which the characteristic is preceded
by a diphthong (cf. § 222. 2), or by another consonant; thus, itvrw^f A*

CHAPTER X.
ROOT OF THE VERB.
^ 3ff 4. The root of the Greek verb, although
not properly varied by inflection, yet received many
changes in the progress of the language. These
changes affected the different tenses unequally, so
that there are but few primitive verbs in which the
root appears in only a single form.
Note. The earlier, intermediate, and later forms of the root .
may be termed, for the sake of brevity, old^ middle^ and new
roots. The final syllable of the earliest form of the root is
commonly short ; and the oldest roots of the language are mon-
osyllabic.
§ 988* The tenses may be arranged, with respect to the
degree in which they exhibit the departure of the root from it9
original form^ in the following order.

in precisely the same way as IXM«'«y and iXu^rifinv from the new root Xuif,
jS. The 2d Aor. and Fat. pass, are chiefly found in impure verbs which wani
the 2d Aor. act, and tnicL They affix -«» and -n^sfMu (§ 180) to the slm*
plest form of the root.
y. These tenses (except the nude 2 Aor. act, § 224. 2) have commonly a
short syllable before the affix (§ 254. N.).
^. In a few verbs, tiie original root appears to have received some change
even in the 2 Aor. ; chiefly, in accordance with the prevailing analogy of the
tense, to render the root tnonost/Uainc, or its last syllabU short (§ 254. N.), or
to enable it to receive the nude form (§ 227. ^).
^ 3tS6* II. The Perfect and Pluperfect Passive.
These tenses have not only a more complete, uniform, and
simple formation than the Perf. and Plup. act, (§§ 179, 186
235), but are likewise more common, and are formed in some
verbs (see tQiqiia^ § 263, qt^Bi^m^ § 268, &c.) from an earlier
root.
m. The Perfect and Pluperfect Active. For the van .
0U3 formations of these tenses, see §§ 179, 186, 234 - 238
IV. The First Aorist and Future.
V. The Present and Imperfect. These tenses, with
very few exceptions, exhibit the root in its latest and most pro-
tracted form.
§ 8t57« Remarks. 1. The 2 Aor. and 2 Put are widely distin-
goi^ed from the other tenses by their attachment to the original farm of the
root ; while the Pres. and Impf. are distinguished no less widely by their t»-
clination to depart from this form. The other tenses differ comparatively but
little from each other in the form of .the root. If the verb has three roots,
they are conmionly formed from the middle root See, for example, XafiCavm
(§ 290).
2. Many verbs are DSFEcnvE, either from the want of a complete forma-
tion, or from the disuse of some of their frrms. In both cases, the defect is
often supplied by other verbs having the same signification (§301). .In the
poets, especially the older, we find many fragments of verbs belonging to the '
earlier language. These occur often in but a single tense, and sometimes in
only a single form of that tense ; as, 2 A. S^. 3 lff^«;^«, rang^ A. 420, J«a«
(r. ^f«.), appeared^ ^. 242, 1 A. XxMuvvtit, hreaihed^ X. 467, X/y^i, twanged,
A. 1 25, Pf. Ft, Kixa^noret^ gasping^ E. 698.
3. On the other hand, many verbs are redundant, either through a douhU
formaiion from the same root, or tiie use of forms frt)m different roots. It
should be observed, however, that two or more forms of the same tense, with
few exceptions, either,
(«.) Belong to different periods^ dialects, or styles of composition; thus,

NoTK. From the varbos changes whieh take place in the root; many
v«cba» together with their common themes, have others, either derived or ool>
lateral. In r^ard to some forms, it seems doubtful whether they ahookl be
rather viewed as redundant forms of the same verb, Qr as the fbrms of disUnct
but kindred verbs.
^ ^8S. The changes in the root of the Greek
verb are o( three kinds ; euphonic, emphatic, and
ANOMALOUS.
Note. The lists which fbUow ate designed both to exsmpISfy the vaiioHi
changes of the root, and likewise to present, in a olassified anrangement, all
those verbs upon whose inflection farther remark seemed to be required. It
wiU be observed, that some of the words ndght have been arranged with equal
propriety under other heads, from their eidiibitlag more than one speciss of

§ 373* 2. ADDITION OF r.
This letter is sometimes simply prefixed or ^!a^ to the
characteristic^ but commonly unites with it, if a palatal^ to form
aa (tt, <J 70. 1), or less frequently f, and, if a lingwd^ to form
f (§ 51. N.), or less frequently oa (rr).
Notes. (I.) Palatals in .^» are mostly onomatopes. (2.) lingaals in
-Zm are mostly derivatiyes, wanting the second tenses, and, by reason of eu-
phonic changes, nowhere exhibiting the root in its simple form. The charac-
teristic may, however, be often determined from another word. It is most
frequently ^, and may be assumed to be this letter, if not known to be another.
(3.) In a few instances, r unites with yy to form ^, and even with a labial to
form ^ or rr.

CHAPTER XI.
FORMATION OF WORDS.
§ S09* The Greek, like all other original languages, is
the development, according to certain natural laws, of a smaU
number of germs^ or primary roots. These primary roots
(which may be termed r(idicais^ to distinguish them from the
mere roots of inflection) have a significance which is not ar-
bitrary, but founded upon instinctive principles of the human
constitution.
NoTB. The moch agitated question, whether the radicals of language are
mntnt or verb§, has no propriety, inasmudi as the origin of these radicals waa
prior to grammatical distinctions, and the same radical was used as noun^
adjecthef verb, &c, as the case might require.
§ SOS* Those words in which the radicals appear in
their simplest forms are termed primitwe ; and all others are
termed derivative ; while, at the same vjme, a distinction must
be made between simple derivatives, and those words which
are formed by the union of other words, and which are termed
compound.
Notes. «. Of those words which are commonly diBtinguished as primt-
Ore and denvatire, some are directly related to each other as parent and child*
^n^He othen are merely formations from the same radical, which, however.

Qommonlj appMrs in a simpler form, in the one ilian in tbe other. It U bnr
portant to observe this distinction, tiiough the saxBA language is commonly
for the sake of convenience, employed in both cases.
j3. In tracing derivations, it is sometimes convenient to assume a theme,
either as a primitive, or as a link of connection. We must, however, b«
cautious in pronouncing that to have been essential in the actual formatiin
4ii the language, which we find convenient in explaining that formation.
I. Formation of. Simple Words.
§ 304. Simple Words are divided in respect to their
Ibrmation into three classes.
(I.) Those which consist of the mere radical, without
change, except for euphony or emphasis.
(II.) Those which have, in addition, merely the affixes of
.inflection. *
(in.) Those which receive farther modifications.
Hie Rules and Remarks which follow have respect chiefly t& the third dasi.
A. Nouns.
§ 309* I. From Verbs. Nouns formed from verbs (or
from commoL radicals, § 303. a) denote,
1.) The action of the verb. These are formed by adding
to the root of the verb,
a. -ets (Gon. -rftt, ftm.), or ^/£ (G. -r/ag, f.) ; as, fufti-s/umtt to tmUate,
fJfAn-rtt, imitatwn ; nr^kerm (r. ft^Ay-^ to cut, {vr^iy-vtf) r^oiii, actifm ; S^
to Bocrificet ^vr/m, tacr\fice ; ^•«i/M»t'v, to try, ^iitfAtgimt trioL
b. -«, -« (G 'fit, 'St, f.) ; as, ^i$7« (r. ^»y-), to JUe, fyy-n, j^t
fitifVf to corrupt, f^^ corrvpium. Some verbs in .smt have abstraoto in
'tid (§ 9S. ^. a) ; as, m'athim, to Uutructt m'mthid, imtruction.
c. -«t (G. -•«, m.); as, Xiy-v, to tpeak, Xiy-sf, speech; #irt/(^«, to tow,
0^o^»s, $ounng,
d. -rtf (G. -^w, m.) ; as, Mwrv^, to wail, kwcS-tU, waStimg*
6. '$t (G. 'ft, n.) ; as, »ni'»fMii, to care, »tii-ot, care,
f. -ftit (G. -^w, in.), or .^ff (G. -mw, f.); ««> i^^-^f^tt^ to lament, Qv^-fdt,
kKmenUatioH ; fii-ftm-fuu, to remanber, fifn-fin, remembroMce.
Bemabk. From the tendency of abstracts to pass into concretes, verbals
of Class 1 often express not so much the action itself, as the effect or obfeti
of the aotion, and thus blend with Qaes 2 ; as, y^aftf^, Hne*
§ 306. 2.) The effect, or object of the action. These
are formed by adding to the root of the verb,
"fm (G. -fsmrtt, n.) ; as, ^»si-t0, to make, compose, ^sin-ftm, <&% 4Wl%

cmi IL] ifcmNS. 9tt5
po$m ; €W*i^ k> jow, ^iri^fut, tkhg mmm, §eed$ y^dpif, to wriit, (jy^-fjM^
y^fi/ut, letter. See also § 305. B.
3.) The DOER. These are formed by adding to the root of
the verb,
a. -T«f (6. -r^v^ m.) ; as, ^%m-»fMit, to bdiold, S^td-rng, hdwider; ir»tim, to
vompote, wtfii^tt poet ; »v/^m, to founds urifrtift founder,
b. -rt^ (G. -'ni^tt nu), or .t«^ (Cr. 'r»fa(j m.) ; as, ^i^MfM (r. ^f.), to give^
h-rn(t gioer; r«^«, to tcaoey fairn^, saviour; r. /•-, to speak, fn-rtt^j speaker
yrator.
Note. The feminines corresponding xa the above (a. and b.) end in -r^
or -rii^i (proparoxytone, G. -£;), or in -t^k or -rts (G. -Hof) ; as, ff'^nr^ios,
^0etoi5, nvrf^«, fmak deHeerer ; «^X«nif and -nt^, ftute-pUyer, ttvknr^is and
-r^Mi flute-^irl ; ^^^^rm, prophet, x^t^T^, prophetess,
c ^tff (G. -i«f, m.) ; as, ><^i^^.», to jiom^, 7^«f-tvf, painter; ^tti^tt, to
corrupt, ^•^%vt, corrupter; »ti^t*, to shcme, mv^ivs, barber,
d. -«f (G. -#v, m. £); r^(^«> ft> noum^ r^»^U, nurse; ittlim, to smg,
mniiti mhutrd,
Rkmark. Some verbals of Class 3 are appHed to things; as, /«/«, to
heat, f»tvrn^, beater, hammer, Zm^rn^, girdle, itnrnit unnd (blower), I^CfXtvr,
^ S97* 4.) The FLAGS, uiSTBUMSMT, cft Other means of
the action. These are formed by adding to the root of the
verb,
a. -nifMf (G. '4V, n.), more frequently expressing place ; as, ^m(-4^mm, to
hear, «»^Mi-r«^i«y, place of hearing, auditory ; it»mrrn(t49 (^ma^m), court of
Justice; 9r»ri^ (Wvw), dHnktrng^cup, Of. §§ 314. b, 315. m,
b. -r^«» (G. -•», n.), or -r^ (G. -«#, f.), more frequently expressing
means; as^ |uw, to citrry, |M^r^«» and l^rr^a, currycomb, Xut^m (Xv«), ran-
som (means of releasing), i^x*^''*'i'^ (}iX^»l^*)t orchestra.
Remark. TerminatioDs of verbals are affixed, in general, with the same
euphonic diangee as the similar affixes of inflection ; i. e. those beginning
with r follow the analogy of -«■« of the Put. or -tm of the Petf. pass. ; those
beginning with ^ and r, of -^eu and -rat of the Peril pass. ; and those be-
ginning with a vowel, of the '2d Perf. It is convenient to remember, thai
verbal nouns following the 1st Pers. of the Perf. pass, more frequently denote
the thing done ; the 2d, the doing; and the 3d, the doer. Thus,
wtrinlfffuih wtrifivfrmt, ^%'W0tifrm,
w^ifi'fub, poem^ iraiffrtf, poesy, ^tn^rmt poet,
% SOS* II. From Adjectives. Nouns formed from
adjectives (or from common radicals, § 303. «) usually ex-
press the ABSTSACT of the adjective, and are formed in,
a. -/# (G. 'i&t, f>)j o^i i^ the root ends in t or •, -m farming, with the
final vowel oi the root, -ui or -atai ; as, vo^-is, wise, 99(P'li, wisdom ; tifitci/Mif,

noting choice among a nitmher of objects.

Ms. Of these, the most important are^
a.) JU, commonly denoting privathn or negatidnf and then called A" pfha
the, as, i'lraig, without ckUdrem, 2-#«^, unwiee; but sometimes denoting
MnioHj collection, or intensiiy, as, a-ltX^^f (hx^vt), brother, m-rivng (rtivw),
atrcdmed. *A- privutive (commonly «v- before a vowd) is akin to &nu, without,
to the Lat. m-, and to the Eng. and Germ, un- ; «- ccpuiadve i^ipears to be
akin to af/Mt, together. Akin to H priv. is vti- (Lat ne) ; thus, vn^ans (tkta),
metdkae,
b.) ^vr-, iU, mu-, mi-; as, ^U-^nfMt, Hl-omemd, >vr-rv;^«K, nde-fmrtuHe^

the part of speech to which the compound belongs.

takes the most obvious form which is appropriate to the daas

of words to which it belongs. Often, the last word, if itself a
noun or adjective^ undergoes no change ; as, ofio-dovlog^ feU
low-sUmey a-natg^ ehUdleu. If the last element is a verhy
the compound adjective <Nr masculine substantive ends com
monly in,
a. -H* This encUiig (whidi is fiff the most oonmon) has both an actum
and a passioe seose^ distingniwhwl, fiv the most part, by the accent, which, if
the pennh is short, the aetwe com^wand commonly takes upon the pemmU, but
the paubee upon tiie imtepenmlt; as, kJt-CiXH (xUt, fidXX^), throwing atoim^
kJi-CsXttt throttm at wUk ttmuu
b. -ns (-if} O. -ui) ; as, ti-^f^ir^y becoming, aurn^nnt, tdf-Bt^jScing.
c -Iff or -at (G. '•»), and -n^ or -«^, denoting the agent (§ S06. a, b) ; aa^
9«f*$'fimf^ UgUiatar, fitu^0-iriiXnf (§ 92. 2), i^tit-in^s, Urdrcatcher^ /miX«-
C«nf^ Aepherd, 2. 529, irm^sXittf^, diM-wuttrderer,
Rkkark. In compounds of this class, if the last w(»d begms "with &, t^ot
«, fbHowed by a single consonant, this vowel is commonly lengthened to « or
«» ; as, ^T^mrnyit (fr(ar»t, &yi , general^ )vnix«r«f ()»r-, iXmyfJ), hard to
drive over^ avrnvfui («-, •••ftm, § 44. 5), namelen.
% 337. 2. If the compound is a verb, it is important to
observe that verbs are compounded directly and without change
with prepositions only ; and that, in other cases, compound
verbs are derivatives from compound nouns or adjectives ex-
isting or assumed.
Uma, XMftCdtaty to take, unites directly with the prep, iv^ tqa, to ibrm
mfM>MftiCm9»0j to take iqi ; bnt it cannot so unite with the noon t^yew, work, and
hence the idea to take work, to contract, is expressed by i^ykaCim, derived
from the compound verbal l^7«-x«C«f, contractor. So the verb compounded
of TflTflrff , horee, and T(i^v, to feed, is !9rwT^0(piv from l^vr^ipuf, horee-keeper.
Sometimes the form of the verb happens not to be changed in passing through
the compound verbal ; thus, from 9-tT»t and vatit, is formed ftrt-wMf, bread'
maker, and from this again nrf^ratut, to make bread,
Rekakks. 1 . The union of the preposition with the verb, as not afiecting
the form of the verb, and admitting of separation by totem (§ S28. N.), is
termed hou or improper conqMrntion^ in distinction from that cloee or prcper
compotition which forms one inseparable word.
§ 33 8* 2. In PBONOUNS and pabticles there Lb a still looser form
ol composition, consisting in the aggregation of words, sometimes really and
sometimes only apparently combined in sense. In these aggregates, the or-
thograpby varies, the words being sometimes written together, chiefly when
the last is an enditic, and sometimes separately. Among the chief words
that are thus affixed to others axe,
a. The niDEFZinTB fbonouii rU • as, Img, whoever, aSnst 'X' o**^ *^*^'»

§ 3S0* Among the especial causes of varibtt in the
syntax of the Greek are,
1.) Its freedom in the me of either genene or qfecifie forms of expres^n
In the development of a language^ new forms arise to express more specifically
what has been generically expressed by some older form. This dder fonx
thus becomes narrowed in its appropriate q>here^ and itself more spedfic in its
expression. But habit, whidi is mi^ty everTwhere, is peculiarly the arbiiei

mid, whererer the new distinction is unimportant, there is a tendency to em
ploy the <dd and fiwniliJM- form in its originid extent of meaning. The result
is, that an idea may be often expressed by two or more forms, which difibr
from each other in being more or less specific ; and the same foim may have
dliftrant OSes, according as it is employed more generically, or more specifically,
lliese remarks apply both to the words of a language, to the fbrms of those
words, and to the methods of oonstmction. They apply with peculiar force
to the Greek, fttoi the freedom and originality of its devek^anent, the oopi-
of its Toeabolary, the ftdness of its fonn% and the variety of its

each other by commerce, by alliances, and by national festivals ; and also in
different departments of literature, without respect to local distinctions (§ 6).
It cannot be thought strange, that forms of expression appropriate to the
different dialects should have been sometimes interchanged or commingled ;
or that the laws of syntax should have acquired less rigidity in the Greek,
fiian in languages which have but a single cultivated dialect.
3.) The vimdnett of eonceptkm and emotSoH, the ipirit of freedomf the versa
Ulihf, the hve of variety, and the pcudon for beauty , whidi so preeminently

§ 333* 5. Attraction. A sabstantive intimately related to anoth-
er is sometimes put in apposition with it by attraction. In this construction,
the appositive usually denotes a part^ or a circumstance, and is often joined
with a participle, taking the pla^ of the Genitive absolute. Thus, ES^ktuv*

two pairs or sets are spoken of.
III. Use of the Cases,
§ 888. Cases serve to distinguish the relations
of substantives. These relations are regarded, in
Greek, L as either direct or indirect, and, II. as
either subjective^ objectivey or residual.
I. Of these distinctions, the first is chiefly founded upon the
directness with which the substantive is related to the verb of
the sentence. The principal dirbct relations are those of
the suiject and direct object of the verb, and that of direct ad-
dress. Other relations are, for the most part, regarded as
INDIRECT.
n. The second distmction is founded upon the kind or char^
acter of the relation. The relation is,

na. 1.] vsB or the cases. 961
1. SimrBOTi'VK, whetk the siifoetsuitiTe denotes the souses, or
SUBJECT, of motion^ action^ or it^tuenee ; or, in other words
THAT FROM WHICH ANY THING COMES.
2. Objective, when the substantive denotes the end, or ob-
ject, of motion^ action^ or influence ; or, in other words, that
TO which ant thing goes.
3. Residual (residuus, remaining)^ when it is not referred
to either of the two preceding classes.
. ^339* The latter of the two distinctions appears to have
had its origin in the relations of place^ which relations are both
the earliest understood, and, through life, the most familiar to
the mind. These relations are of two kinds ; those of motion,
and those of rest. Motion may be considered with respect either
to its SOURCE or its end ; and both of these may be regarded
either as direct or indirect. We may regard as the direct
source of motion, that which products the motion, or, in other
words, that which moves ; as the indirect source, that from
which the motion proceeds ; as the direct end, that which rc-
ceives the motion, or that to or upon which the motion irnmedi'
ately goes ; and as the indirect end, that towards which the
motion tends. By a natural analogy, the relations of action
and influence in general^ whether subjective or objective, may
be referred to the relations of motion ; while the relations
which remain without being thus referred may be classed to
gether as relations of rest. These residual relations, or rela-
tions of rest, may likewise be divided, according to their office
in the sentence (% 338), into the direct and the indirect. We
have, thus, six kinds of relation, which may be characterized
in general as follows, and each of which, with a single excep«
tion, is represented in Greek by an appropriate case. .
A. Direct Relatiomb.
1. Subjective. That which acts. Thb Nohinativk
2. Objective. That which it acted upon. Thb Acx^usattve.
S. Reeidual. TTiat which i$ addretted. The Yogattve.
B. Indirbct Belations.
1 SabjectiYe. That from which any thing proceedt. The GENrnvE.
S. Objectiye. That towards which nny thing tends. The Dative.
S. fieddual. TViat with which any thing is associated. The Dative.
^ S40« Remarks, m. For tbe historical development of the Greek
ctsee, see §§ 83-88. From the primitive indirect case (which remained aa
the Dat), a special form was separated to express the subjective relations, but
none to express the obj^tive. The primitive form, therefore, oootinnsd to ex-
press the objective rJations, as well as all those relations which, from any

eanae, were mat rtferrBd to either of tbese two daseee ; and hflnoe the Dat u
both an oltjeetwe and a rendual case.
/3. In the LAtin case-system, which has a dose correspondence with the
Greek, there is a partial separation of the indirect objective and residual, or, as
they are termed in Lat., Dative and Ablativb cases. This separation,
however, does not appear at all in the Plural, or in Dec II., and, wherever it
occurs, may be explained by the mere precession or contraction of final vowels.
A more important difierence between the two langaages appears in the exten-
sive use of the Lat. Ablativb. The Romans were more controlled than the
Gre^s by the power of habit, idiile they were leas observant of the minater
shades of thought, and niceties of relation. Hence, even after the Aill de-
velopment of the Lat case-system, the primxtive indirect case continued to re-
tain, as it were by the mere force of possession, many of the subjective rela-
tions. It is interesting to observe how the old Ablative, the once undisputed
lord of the whole domain of indirect relations, appears to have contested every
inch of ground with the new claimant that presented himself in the younger
Genitive. But we n\,ust leave the particulars of the contest to the Latin
grammarian, and content ourselves with merely referring to two or three fa-
miliar illustrations. Thus, in Lat, the Gen. (as well as the Dat) was ex-
cluded from all exponential adjunet$ (§ 3*J9), because in these the relation was
sufficiently defined by the preposition. The Gen, of place obtained admission
into the Sing, of Dec I. and II., but not into Dec. III. (the primitive deden-
mon, cf. § 86) or into the Plur. The Gen, of price secured four words {tunUt
guantif plurisy and mtitorts), but was obliged to leave all others to the AbL
After words of j)lenty and wanty the use of the two cases was more neariy
«qual. In the construction of one ntbttnntioe as the complement of another^ the
Gen. prevailed, yet even here the Abl. not unfrequently maintained its ground,
>if an adjective was joined with it as an ally. In some constructions, the use
of the Gen. was only a poetic license, in imitation of the Greek.
y» The Nominativb, from its high office as denoting the subject of dis-
course, became the lending caecy and was regarded as the representative of the
\vord in an its forms (its theme). Hence it was employed when the word was
spoken o( as a word, or was used without grammatical conetruction ^ § 34:i),
^ 34 1 • There are no dividing lines either between dirbct and indi-
rect, or between tubjedive, objective^ and rendual relations. Some relations
seem to faU with equal propriety under two, or even three heads, according to
the view which the mind taked of them. Hence the use of the cases not only
varies in difierent languages, and in different dialects of the same language,
but even in the same dialect, and in the compositions of the same author.
A, The Nominative,
^343. Rule II. The Subject of a finite

3.) In address.
The appropriate case of address is the Voc. (^ 85). But there is often no
distinct form for this case^ and even when there is, the Nom. is sometimes
employed in its stead (§ 8l). (a) The Nom. is particularly used, when the
address is exchtmitory or deacriptive^ or when the compeilative is the same with
ttie iutject of the sentence ; as, *Cl ^iXtty Z ^«X«^, my beloved I my beloved I

which any thing proceeds, as its point of depart
URE ; and, ii. That from which any thing pro-*

either, (i.) the Genitive of Departure, or, (u.)
the Genitive of Cause ; and we have the follow-
ing general rule for subjective adjuncts (§|^329,

ARE put in the GeNITIVE. .

Hence,
Rule IV, Words of separation and distinc-
tion govern the Genitive.
Note. There is no line of division between the two classes of words
which are mentioned in this role. Many words which are oommonly used to
denote distinction of character referred originally to separation of place (cf
i SB9), And, on the other hand, words which nsoally denote separation of
place, are often employed, by a metaphorical or transitive ose, to express d»
partore or difference in other respects.

tahe the lead. But, in early warfare, the same individual led the march, ruled
tiie host, and began the onset. Hence this verb came to signify to rule, and
to begin ; and, in both these senses, it retained the Gen. which belonged to it
as a verb of precedence. Thus, *A.¥6^ti<rmv &^x^n, to rule men, Cyr. i. 1.3.

(it.) Genitive of Cause.
^3S3. To the head of cause may be reter-
red, I. That from which any thing is derived,
FORMED, SUPPLIED, Of TAKEN ; II. That which
exerts an influence, as an excitement, occasion,
or condition ; III. That which produces any
thing, as its active or efficient cause ; and
IV. That which constitutes any thing what
it is.
In the first of these divisions, the prevailing idea is that of
source ; in the second, that of infu&nee ; in the third, that of
tuition ; and in the fourth, tnat of property. Or we may say,
in general, that the first division presents the material cause :
the second, the motive cause ; the third, the efficient cause ; and
the fourth, the constituent cause. It scarcely needs to be re*
narked, that the four divisions are continually blending with
each other in their branches and analogies.
^ 3«S4. I. That from which any thing is de-
rived, FORMED, supplied, Or TAKEN. To this
division belong, 1. the Genitive of Origin^ 2. the
Genitive of Materialy 3. the Genitive of Supply^
and 4. the Genitive of the Whole^ or the Gemtive
Partitive.
1 and 2. Crenitive of Origin and of Material.

{i» The Gen., in all cases in which it is strictly partitive, may be regarded
as properly depending upon a substantive denoting the part ; and therefore
the use of this G«n. in connection with adjectives, verbs, and adverbs may
be referred to eUipeis. Thus, TSv &x.Xmv 'ExXifvwv rms [sc. A^^tg"]. *E^i»v.

Remarks. «. This use of the Gen., to denote the place where, occurs very
rarely in prose, except in those adverbs of place which are properly genitives
(§ 320. I ) ; as, 0? [sc riv-av], in which place, where, ahrw, there, if^w, in the
same place, ovhetfAtv, nowhere, &c Cf. ^ 421. /3.
/3. In Epic poetry, this Gen. is sometimes employed to denote the place np/m
or over which any thing moves ; as, "^x^'*'** *tli»f, they advance upon th^

Note. In particular, a4iective8 in which a substaottve is compounded with
ii'pnoative (§ 825), hare often It Gen. defining the substantive. See § 395.
§ 384* /?. A genitive defining a substantive is sometimes
connected with it by an intervening word, which is usually a
substantive verb. See, for examples, §§ 387, 390 ; cf. § 365. —
This fonn of construction may be referred to ellipsis ; thus,
Hv [av^Qunoq] ixoiv wf tgiaxovxa, he was [a man] of aboui

by the poets, with )i/cM(f, form, body, »d(»i head, ntfut, nnme, and similar

§ 388* An adjunct defining a thing either expresses a
property of that thing, or points out another thing related^ to
It. An adjunct defining a property points out a thing rekUed
to that property. Hence the constituent genitive is either,
1. the Genitive of Property^ or 2. the Genitive of Relation. *

perftnns the office of an adjectioe. Its use to express quaUty, in the strict
sense of the tenn, is chiefly poetic
2. Genitive of Relaiion.
§ 3 8 8* The Genitive of relation, in its full extent, in-
cludes much which has been already adduced, under other and
more specific heads. The relations which remain to be con-
sidered are, (a.) those of domestic^ social^ and civil life ,
(b.) those of possession and ownership ; (c.) that of the object
of an action to the action or agent ; (d.) those of time and
phice ; (e.) those of simple reference^ of explanation^ &c.
The Genitives esqpressmg these relati<ni8 may be termed, (a.) the Gen* of

iises, of which the principal are those of simple reference^ of
explanation^ and of emphatic repetition.
Note. In some of these nses, the Gen. rather denotes a relatioii between
two expressions for the same thing, than between two different Udngs, In such
cases, an apposUxoe might be snbstitated for it (§ 333. 6) ; and, indeed, in
some of the examples which follow (particularly with the compounds of A-
privaHve, § 383. N.), we might regard the Gen. as in apposition with a sub-
stantive implied.

§ 396. General Remark. Great care is requisite in
distinguishing the various uses of the Genitivo, inasmuch as,
1 .) The Gen. may have different uses in oonnec^on with the same word ;
•8, with linsim and «Xva* (§§ 356, 375, 380), with hpfutt (v^ 357. N, 380),
with «'XMfi»ri« (5§ 351, 367), with ^tftTrif (§§ 349, 362. Z), with ^if^
and vfUet (§$ 347, 363). — The ose of the Gen. with substantives is ea*
pedaCy various.
2.) A word may have two or more adjuncts in the Gen. expressing differ-
ent relations ; as, ^AsAtm^tt (§381. y\ V^m (§ 391. t), rvyx»*»t and ^iumt
(§ 380. «). See § 393. ). , •

cowards which any thing tends, as^ an object of
approach; and ii. That towards which any thing
lends, as an object of influence. Hence the
Dative objective is either, (i.) the Dative of Ap-
puoACH, or (ii.) the Dative of Influence; and

(ii.) Dative of Inflitbmce.
^ 401. The Dative of influence expresses a
person or thing which is affected by an action,
property, &c,, without being directly acted upon.
Influence has every variety and degree. On the one hand,
it may be so immediate^ that it can scarcely be distinguished
from direct action, and the Dat expressing it is used inter-
changeably with the Ace. ; and, on the other hand, it may be
so remote^ that it can scarcely be appreciated, and the DaU
expressing it might have been omitted without impairing' tha
lense.

§ 413* 4. Sometimes two datiyes following the same
word, especially in Epic poetry, appear to be most naturally,
though not unavoidably, referred to the 2^fjfici xa&* oXov xal
fidQog (§ 334. 9) ; as, 2&ivoq sfiSaX* ixaa?^ xa^^/^, imparted

D. The Dative Residual.
^414. The Dative residual is used in ex-
pressing adjuncts, which are not viewed as either
sulgective or objective (^^ 338, 340. a). It simply
denotes indirect relation, without specifying the
character of that relation; or, in other words, it
denotes mere association or connection. Hence we
have the general rule : An Attendant Thing or
Circumstance, simply viewed as such, is put
IN the Dative.
Notes. «. In aooordanoe with this rule, the Dat. is sometimes nsed in
expressing an a4jimct, which, upon a more exact discrimination of its char-
acter, would be expressed by dther the Gen, or Ace, See §§ 340. «, 341.
fi. The Dattvb residual is expressed in Eng. most frequently by the
prepositioa with, bat likewise by the prepositions 6y, in, ut, &c. C£ §§ S45. N.,
S97. «.
^ 41tl. ThB Dative residual may be resolved
into, (i.) the Instrumental and Modal Dative,
and (ii.) the Temporal and Local Dative.
(i.) Instrumental and Modal Dative.
Rule XIX. The means and mode are put in
the Dative.
§ 4 1 H. Instrumentality and mode may be either ex*
ternal or internal^ and mode may apply either to action or con*
dition. Hence, to these heads may be referred,

E. The Accusative,
^499. The office of the Accusative is to ex-
press DIRECT TERMINATION OF LIMIT (^ 339) ; and
the general rule for its use is the follovnng : An
Adjunct expressing Direct Limit is put in
THE Accusative.
RKMARg. In a genera] sense, all the obliqub oases may be said to ex-
press limit ; bnt the Gen. and Dot, express it less simply and less directly
than the Aee* In some connections, however, these itutirect caeee are used
interchangeably with the Ace. See §§ 341, 401, 414. «, 424. 2.
The Accusative, as the case of direct limits is
employed, —
(i.) To limit an action, by expressing its direct
object or its effect. — 'Ace, of Direct Object and
Effect.
(lu) To limit a word or expression, by applying
't to a particular part, property, thing, or person. — -
Ace. OF Specification.
(hi.) To express limits of time, space, and quan-
tity. — Acc. OF Extent.

(iv,) To limit a woid or expression, by denoting

irith each other. (6.) For the tue of the Acc to denote the tubject of the Iff

Note. The distinction between the direct object and the effect of an actioil
Is not always obvious, and i^ sometimes appears doubtful to which head aa
adjunct is best referred.
^ 434* Resiabks. 1. The term actum is employed in this rule to
denote whatever is eigni/ied by a verb ; and the rule properly applies only to
the adjuncts of verbe (§ B92). Adjectivei and noums^ however, sometimet
take the Acc. after the analogy of kindred verbs ; thus, 21 . . ^v|<^«f , abk

2. Many verbs, which according to the preceding rules govern the Oen, or
the Dat; are likewise construed with the Accusative (see §§ 341, 401,
42!2. R.); as, *il^tXtif f/u* t«cv ^tXavt, . . /SA^rriiv ^\ rtiiit Ix^fvs PL

^ 43tS* 3. Attraction. A word which is properly construed other-
wise sometimes becomes the direct object of a verb by attraction (§ 329. N.),
especially in the poets. This sometimes results in hypaUage, or an interchange
of construction {tnraXX»y4i, exchange). Thus, E/ 3f fA £^* mt) Xiyn V^n^x**

By this eUipsis may be explained the use of the Ace with the particles vW,
»«/, and ftei (of which the two first are affirmative, and the last, unless pre-
ceded by mt, commonly negative), acc(mling to the foUowing
Special Rule. Adverbs of swearino are followed by the Accusative ;

ST19TAX OF THE ADJECnVE.
- 1 Agreement of the Adjective,
^444. Rule XXVI. An Adjective agrees
mth its subject in gender j number^ and case.
Hie word adjeetive is here used in its largest sense (§ 7S). Thus, n«^.

Notes. «. An a^ective either assists in describing the thing which is
■pdien of, or forms a part of that which b said a^ it. In the former case,
the adjective is said to be used as an ^pith^ (i«'iVir0v, from \w$Tl§nfAt, to add) \
in the latter, as an attribute (attributus, ascribeS). In the sentence, " A good
man is merdfol,'* " good " is an epithet, and " merciful " an attribute. The
l^greement of the attribuf with its subject is fiir less strict than that of die
tpithet ; while the agreement of the pronoim (§ 495) is still less strict than
that of the attribute,
fi. An exception to this rule, which is merely apparent, consists in the ose
«f the maeculim form for the femtnime in a^jectiyes of three terininationB
(S 133. y, ^).
^ 44tS« Remarks. 1. Infinitives, clauses used substan-
tively, and words or phrases sp<^en of as such, are regarded
as neuter ; thus,

when things are spoken of, it is commonly neuter ; as,

•O T Ixtivav Ttxeiv, * his father,' Eur. El. 3S5. (b.) The substantive omitted

and if iif/UTi^f »f»^
§44 8. 4. Many words which are commonly employed
as substantives are properly adjectives, or may be used as
such. Thus,

§ 449. 5. Use of the Neuter. The substantive use
of the neuter adjective (§ 447. a) exhibits itself in a variety of
forms. Thus,

prepositions to form many adverbial phrases ; as, 'Avi rov mtrofieircvt of their

Note. This use of tiie Plur. for tiie Sing, appears to have arisen from
the want of a noun, or definite object of sense, to give strict unity to the con*
option. It is very frequent in demonstrative pronouns, «Qd in verbals in ^«i
and -r'ff-
§ 493* 6. An adjective often takes a substantive in the
Genitive partitive^ instead of agreeing with it. In this con-
struction, the adjective is either in the same gender with the
substantive, or in the neuter (commonly the neut, sing.).

tracted by a substantive either, (a,) governing^ or (/J.) in ap*
'position with^ its real subject ; as,

stantive instead of governing it in the Gen. partitive (§§ 358-
360) ; as,

§ 458* Notes. 1. In cases like the above, the adjective form ap-
pears to be assumed through the attraction of the substantive, or in other words,
for the sake of binding tc^ther more closely the different parts of the sen-
tence, and giving greater unity to the expression. It will be observed that,
m some of the examples, the adjective simply forms an emphatic pleonasm.
"?. In some instances, a Genitive unth its adjective appear to have been chang-
ed into two adjectives agreeing with the governing stUtstantive ; as, Uivrtif r*
Aiymitn [for «'«vr«» r AiyttUu] Iv* a»r«v «X<^iy«v, and upon the harbourless
coast of the jEgean Sea, Eur. Ale 595. ll§rxfAi^ ^^f^Hf *"• ^^^^ irtrxfuS
N^ri^«tf] xm^f, unth the oar of the nether stream, lb. 459.
3. Derivative and compound adjectives are formed in Greek with great free-
dom, and the latter, especially among the poets, often appear to have taken
the place of a simple adjective or noun, by a species of emphatic or graphic
pleonasm; as, 'iitvtifiiruxMt [s^ /juvavfl irtiXtvf, singly-bridled [=s single]
horses, Eur. Ale 428# *Ay'%Xate fiovfUatf [= ^«5»] Soph. (Ed. T. 26. —
The poets often repeat a noun in composition with i- privative or a similar
word, to express emphatically the idea of negation or of evil; as, "M-nrn^ Afin'
Ttt^, our [unmotherly mother] mother, yet no mother, Soph. El. 1 154. Tafi»f
AyMfM9 Eur. HeL 690 (cf. Innvptis . . nuptiis Cic de Or. iii. 58). *Cl wmrt^

^ 4«59« 12. Anacoltjthon. An adjective sometimes
differs in case from its subject, through a change of construc-
tion (cf. § 333. 7) ; as,
Bifif . . fifxiiv iret^xyyiXXu XaCirrH r«wf iv^fxt, he commands Xenias tit

used without an express object of comparison. In this case,
the siTFERLATiVE increases tfie force of the positive, while the
COMPARATIVE may either increase or diminish it, according to
the object of comparison which is implied. Thus,

CHAPTER III.
STKTAX OF THE ABTICLE.
§ 467. The article (o, ^, to) appears, in the Epic lan-
guage, as a GENERAL DEFINITIVE, performing the office not only
of an article as usually understood^ but still more frequently
of a demonstrative^ personal^ or relative pronoun (see §§ 147,
148) ; as, ^ ^
•O yi(m, Oie old man, A. 33. T« r Utrx, ra r Irrifitm A. 7a T£ ^

Rekahks. 1. These uses are intimately allied, inasmuch as, — (a)*Th«
art, as usually understood, is amply a less emphatic form of the detmmstr*
pron. Compare, in Eng., " That man whom you see,** and '*The man whom
you see." — (6) Tho personal pron. of the •'d Pers. is a substantive demonstr, proiu

•onal pron., like the art, is oommonly ten wn^fhaHe fban the demeintnitiTt
osually 80 named.) — (c) The demonstr. pron. used conmctively becomes a
relative ; as, in Eng., " Blessed are they that mourn." — Observe the resem-
blance in form between the English article the, and the pronouns thaty thisj he,
they, &c. ; the derivation of the definite art in the French, Italian, &e^ from
the Lat demonstr. Ule; and the extensire use of the German articla (kr
die, doB,
§ 4:S 8« 2. Ib Epic poetry, — (a) The article, in its proper nae aa
Boch, b commonly not expressed. The same omission prevails to a great ex-
tent in other kinds of elevated poetry. — (b) When used aa a personal pro-
noun, it is most frequently connected with the same particles as in Attic Greek
(§§ 490, 491) ; and is not unfrequently followed in the same sentence by the
substantive to which it refers ; as, 'H 2* 2r«'ir# n.»XX»s 'Ainvn, and $he,
PaUas Minerva, followed, «. 1 25. AJ V iitifiolimv *Ainvmm r% nmi "Yi^n ^
SO. Cf. § 499. — (c) As a demonstrative, it sometimes follows its substan-
tive before a relative ; as, 'Aittmi/AWM itifm r«v, «« »• ^iMnv i^ix^fi^mt n,
73. Sw/iricw* TMiv, Ai WinXXi E. 319. — {d) The article when used as a
perseoal or demonstrative pronoun has sometimes, from its position (see
$ 491. B.), or for the sake (xP the metre, the same form in the Kom. with tha
oommon rehitive ; as, *0t yk^ huraurn Miv^ for he returned last, «. 286.
Mff^ Is ^»yu Z. 59. *0 y«^ yi^s Uri ^pifrm*, ' for this,' Y. 9.
3. In the later Ion. and in the Dor. writers, this extended use of the articU
was, in great measure, retained. £. g. in Hdt, the relative has in iha Norn,
aing. and pi. the forms it, iu ^'t »^f »h v*^ * f>^^ ^^ elsewhere the r* forma
of the article, except after prepositions which suffer elision, and in the phrases,
4. Traces of the earlier and freer use of the article likewise remained la
the Attic and common Greek ; so that we shall treat of the Att use of the
article under two heads, (i.) its use as an article, and, (n.) its use as a pro'
noun, combining with the latter the use of the relative forms (§ 1 48. 2) aa
demonstrative or personal. We ou0it, perhaps, te premise, what might ba
inferred from ^ 467. 1, that no predse line of division can be drawn betwee*.
the use of the article as sud^ and its use as a proaoun.
I. The Article as an Article.
^469. Rule XXVII. The Article is pre-
fixed to substantives, to mark them as definite.
NoT^i^ 1^ The Greek article is commonly translated into English by the
dejinite article the ; but often when used substantively, and sometimes when
used adjectively, by a demonstrative pronoun ((§ 476, 479, 486. l). With a
participle following, it is most frequently tran&'ated by a relative and verh^
preceded, if no antecedent is expressed, by a personal or demonstrative pro-
noi^ (§ 476). It is often omitted in translation, especially with proper nameSf
abstract nouns, nouns used genericalbf, vmdi pronouns (§§ 470, 471, 473); and
must be often supplied in translation when not expressed (§§ 485, 486).
2. A substantive used ind^itdy wants the article ; as, E«X^ yk^ Sv-
0avf^, ^mfl itv'h^t ffWMtiai^ ^^f i(pu\»fAini, a favor due from a ^ood mum k

Note. Hi proee, when the article is omitted with a demonstrative pronoun
and a common noun, the pronoun is usually employed as a mbject, and the

§ 47ff« 3. An adverb preceded by an article has often
the force of an adjective. This construction may be explained

§ 4 8 9* 8. The Insertion or omission of the article often depends, both
in poetry and prose, upon euphony and rhythm, and upon those nice distinctumM
in the expression of our ideas, which, though they may he readily fdt, are often
transferred with difficulty from one language to another. In general, the inser-
tion of the ardde promotes the perspicuity, and its omission, the vivacity of dis-
joaana. It is, oonseqaently, more employed in philoeophiad than in rhetoriccu
compoation, and far more m. prose than tn poetry. It should be remarked,
however, that, even in prose, tiiere is none of the minutise of language in
rhich manuscripts differ more, than in respect to its insertion 'or oniisaiony

independent of a modifying word dr phrase (§ 476). This use is explained,
as in the case of otiier adjectives (§ 447), by the dlipsis ift a noun. As a
pronoun, the article in Attic writen is either demonstratioe or personal, the
cases in § 493 excepted.

with its mbject in gender ^ number^ and person.

The role, therdbre, has respect either to ttibttantive pronowuy or to adjeetiee
pronoun* tued 9ub$tantivefy. The constmcticni of adjective pronouns regarded
a$ $uch belongB to Rulb XXYL, and even their substantive use is explained
by ellipsis (§ 447. a). Thus,

II. Special Observations on the Pronouns.
^ ffOl* Of the observations which follow, many apply
equally to pronouns and adverbs of the same classes,
A. Personal, Possessive, and Reflexive.
§ ff03» In the use of the pronouns, especially those of
the classes named above, it is important to distinguish between
the stronger and the weaker forms of expression ; that is, be-
tween those forms which are more distinctwe^ emphatic^ or
promincTU^ and those which are less so.
I. In the weaker form, the first and second personal pro-
nouns are omitted in the Nom,<t and are enclitic in the oblique
cases sing. ; but in the stronger form, they are expressed in the
iVbm., and are orthotone throughout. In the weaker form, the
THIRD personal PRONOUN is omitted in the Nom.^ and is com-

form, it is supplied by o and og, whicii are simply distinctive
and are limited in their use (§§ 490-492), and by oviog, ode
and ixBivog, which are both distinctive and demonstrative. Thus,

the same with that of the common personal pronoun ; the
stronger form is the so-called reflexive (§ 144). The weaker
form belongs chiefly to those cases in which the reflex refer*
ence is indirect and unemphatic ; the stronger, to those in
which this reference is either direct, or, if indirect, is specially
emphatic or distinctive. Thus,

§ tSOtS* Rebcabks. 1. As prononns are used mainly for distinction^
the ehoioe or rejection of a pronotm in a particular instance depends greatlj
upon the use of other pronouns in the connection. The use of the pronouns
is likewise mnch influenced in poetry by the metre, and even in prose^ to some
extent, by euphony and rhythm.
2. "With respect to posmoir, the weaker form of the Genitive^ fh>m its want
of distinctive emphasis, commonly follows § 472. «, but the stronger form, and
the possessive adjective, § 472. I. Thus, 'EfriX«/uC(ivt7ai tthrtlv rnt Jruas rv*

S. The place of the Oen. possessive of the reflexive pron. is commonly sop*
pBed in the phir. by the possessive pron. with «vr«w. In the sing, this fbna
of ezpressioii is poetic ^ See § 454.
§ oOo« 4. The Aird person being expressed demonstraiivdy in other
ways, the pronoun sS became simply a retrospective pronoun, L e. a pronoun
xefening to a perstm or thing previously mentioned. As such, it p^ormed
the office both of an unemphtUic reflexive (§ 504), and of a simpie personal
pronoun, and was sometimes used as a general reflexive, without respect to per-
■on. ^Q this last use, it was sometimes imitated by its derivatives (even in
the Attic, by lavraS and e^pirt^ag). Thus, BaoXtuatn fAirk v^ivn [rss tz/ttTv],

ImvTdv, and as a simple personal pron., by mvrit. The plund occurs f^

The disuse of the Nom. sing, of this proh. (§.143. 4) is explained by its re-
flexive character (cf. § 144).

§t5©8« The pronoun alxoq marks a return of the mind
to thp same person or thing (§ 149). This return takes place,
I.) In speaking of reflex action or relation. Hence
avioq is used with the personal pronouns in toiming the re*
FLEXivES. See §§ 144, 504.
II.) In designating a person or thing as the same which
has been previously mentioned or observed. When thus em-
ployed, amog (like the corresponding same in English), being
used for distinction^ is preceded by the article (§ 472). Thus,
T^ tX ahriji *>/^i^j ond ujton Me same day, i. 5. 1 2. %U ri mM •';^i^iMi

familiar modes of expressing which is repetition. When cRiog
is thus employed in connection with the article, its position con-
forms to § 472. a. Thus,

^ St 0» Remarks. 1. Hie emphatic mirof is joined with pronouna

Notes. «. From the gradual extension of this use to cases in which there
was no special emphasis, appears to hare arisen the familiar employment of
mirii in the obUque cases^ as the common pronoun of the third person. Sea
§ 502. In this unemphatic use, mvrit must not be^ a clause.
/3. SoraetiiQes (chiefly in the Epic), mMt occurs in the oblique cases, with
the ellipsis of a pron. of the Ist or 2d Pers. ; as, AirSv yk^ mwvXofMfi* «^(««

§ S 1 1 • 3. The emphatic miris often precedes a re/lexioe, agreeing
with the subject, of the latter. Hyperbaton (§ 329. N.) is sometimes employed
to bring the two pronouns into immediate connection. Thus, 'AirsxriTmi Xi*

oirog^ as formed by composition with avro^, is properly a pro-
noun of identificalum or emphatic designation (it may be re-
garded as a weaker form of o auro^, the same^ ^ 502) ; while
odty arising from composition with dt^ is strictly a deicHc pro-
noun {dtixuxog^ from dtUrvut^ to point out)^ pointing to an
object as before us (see § 150). Hence,
1.) If reference is made to that which precedes^ or which
is contained in a subordinate clause^ ovtoc is commonly used ;
but if reference is made to that which follows and is not con-
tained in a subordinate clause, ode. Thus,

Note. To the dmc^ power of 0^1 (§ 51 3), may be referred the very fre-
quent use of this pronoun by the Epic and Dramatic poets for an adverb of
place (§ 4.57.*^) ; and perhaps, in no small degree, the general fact, that it is
£» more extensively employed in poetry than in prose* '
^ S 1 S* 3.) In the emphatic designation of the firsi and

* frst person, as the nearer object ; and ovrog^ the second. In
denoting the frst person, the demonstrative may be regarded
as simply deictic {§ 513) ; in denoting the second^ as expres-
sive of impatience^ authority^ contempt^ familiarity ^ &;c. For

§fflT. Of the indefinite pronouns^ the most extenshro
in its use is ti^, which is the simplest expression of indefi-
nileness or general reference. As such, it is not only joined
directly with substantives^ or used by itself substantively or
adverbially, but it is also joined with other pronouns^ with nw-
merals and other adjectives, and with adverbs. It more fre-
quently follows the word with which it is thus joined, and is
never placed at the beginning of a sentence, unless perhaps
when it is emphatic. It is variously translated into English,
and is sometimes best omitted in translation. Thus,

CH. 4.] RELATIVE. 3W "
E. Relative.
§ ff 1 0, I. Relatives refer to an antecedent either as <i^
nite or as indefinite ; and are, hence, divided into the definitb
and the indefinite relatives*
Remarks. 1. In the logical order of discourse, the antecedent, according
to its name, prteedet the relative, but this order may be wverted, whenever
the perapicmty, energy^ or beauty of the sentence is promoted by the change.
2. Indefinite BELAnvES are formed, either from the defiaite rdatioet by
adding vU or a particle (commcmly «»), or from the ftmple indefinitee by pre-
fixing h (in the shortened form'«.) ; tiins, tgrtt or U ttv, whoever ^ ««*•?«;, cf
what kind woever, i9rirHt f*ow much §oever, iirort, wheruoever. See §§ 153,
SI 7, 328.
§ S30. II. The definite relative is often used for
t le indefinite^ as a simpler and shorter form ; and the indef^
NiTE sometimes takes the place of the definite^ giving, however,
a somewhat different turn to the expression. Thus,
$aic ufiUing to incur danger ^ these he both made rulers^ i. 9. 1 4. '^x«i«y irMtrm

(6) The use of on indejiniie relative referring to a definite antecedent belongs
particularly to those cases in which the relative danse is added, not to diMtin'
guiihf but to characterize, thus representing the antecedent 9& one of a dose*
§ S31. III. The relative should correspond with its an-
tecedent in specific meanings as well as in grammatical form.
Thus, the definite relative with ovio^ should be og ' with lo*-
ovre^, olo^ ' with joaoviog^ oaog ' &c. The exceptions to this
rule arise mostly from the use of a simpler^ more familiar^
or more emphatic pronoun^ in the place of that which is
strictly appropriate. Some apparent exceptions arise from
ellipsis. Thus,

§ S93« IV. The relative pronouns belong to the class
of adjectives (§ 73), and, as such, agree with a substantive
expressed or understood. This substantive, or one correspond-
ing to it, is also the antecedent of the relative. It is commonly
expressed in hut one of the two clauses, more frequently the
former^ but often the latter ; and may be omitted in hoth^ if it
18 a word which will be readily supplied (^ 447). Thus,

2. It win be observed, that when the antecedent is expressed in the samt
danse with the relative, it is commonly pat at the end, as though the rest of
the danse were regarded as modifying it like an adjective. See § 526.
^ o33« 3. The ELUPSis of a demonstrative pronoun beibre the rela-
tive is veiy freqnent ; as, indeed, of the whole antecedent^ when it can be sup-
plied from the relative. When this ellipsis of the antecedent takes place, trr
often unites with the relative to form a spedes of compound pronoun or advert
remaining itself unchanged, whatever may be the appropriate number, tenae^
or mode. Hius, Tl^tfCaXXttrt m-^UCue w^Sr** fth 'Siu^lrt^v, Srt i^X"^

Notes, (a) FVom a similar union of in [p-» in^rt] with the relative^ have
arisen the compounds f mm, some, and ImWi, «(Miie<»m«. (6) The ellipsis some-

§ ff34. V. The intimate relation of clauses connected
by a relative pronoun^ or a kindred particle^ often produces
an ATTRACTION, sometimes simply affecting the position or
form of particular words^ and sometimes even uniting the
two clauses in one. Not unfrequently a combination results,
which may be regarded as a species of compound or complea
pronoun. Thus,
^SftS. A.) A word or phrase is often made a part of
the relative^ instead of the antecedent^ clause ; and sometimes
the two clauses are blended in their arrangement. Thus,

indeclinable^ and may be often regarded as a mere adverb (§ 450. }, 6) ; thus,

relative ; as, TvfiC»9 , . liriuxia r^tot [==s r»T»9, Mt Irn Wtitxnt] It, 246.
§930. E.) A eelative pronoitn takes the place of a
demonstrative pronoun and a connective particle.
The term demonstrative pronoun, as here used, includes the personal oromatm
and the article. See § 467. 1. Of this form of attraction there are tw«
kinds, according as the demonstrative bdongs to the first or the secotd of tbt
two dauses which are united.
a.) When the demonstrative belongs to the first clause. In this kind of
attraction the pronoun is commonly either governed by a preposition or adverb^
or is itself used adverbially. Thus, '£^' f [= i^ri tovt^ iirrt] fih xuiuf rat

(§ 329. N.), their proper forms are those of the indefinite rel-
tUives, (^ 519. 2). But, when there wiH be no danger of mis-
take, there is often employed, for the greater brevity and vi-
vacity, in place of the full compound form, one or the other
element, either the relative or the indefinite. Of these, the
latter is far the more frequently used, but 'with this distinction
from the indefinite in its proper sense^ that the accentuation of
the compound form is retained, as far as possible. Thus,

§ ff 38* Remarks. 1. The mdefinites thus employed
and accented are termed in Etymology, from the most promi-
nent of their offices, interrogatives (§§ 152. 2, 317). As
complementary words, they were employed in indirect ques-
tion ; and hence appears to have arisen theur use as direct
interrogatices^ through an ellipsis. Thus, from the indirect
question, Einiy ilva ypwfitjp (jc^ig nfQi j^g nogtlag^ say^ what
opinion you have respecting the march (ii. 2. 10), by the omis-
sion of finiy comes the direct question, Tipa yywfttiP exfig nfQl
j^g nodtUb; ; WhU opinion have you respecting the march 7
So, from M^cnt ovy nqog ftt, il iv v^ tx*it^ tell me, therefore^
what you have in mind (iii. 3. 2), comes, Tl iv v^ l^crc y What
have you in mind 1
Notes. «. In other languages, as the Lat., with those derived from it,
and the Eng., the oomplementaiy use of the nmple relatives has prevailed ;
and hence, in these languages, the general identity of the relatives and the tn-
terrvgaiives, Thns, who, which, when, &c, are both relative and interrogative.
$. In direct qaeetion, the Greek employs only one of the two shorter ibrms
above mentioned, bat in exclawuUum it employs both ; thus, 07/iam, m-mrtfj rt

^ «S38. 4. Condensation. The antecedent and com-
plementary clauses are sometimes brought into one by the el-
lipsis of a substantive verb (cf. § 528). The verb is omitted
either (a.) in the antecedent^ or (/J.) in the complementary
clause.
«. In the AMTECBDENT CLAUSB. This occuiB with adjectives of admiration,
which unite with the complementary word (commonly S^ts or ig) to form a
complex adjective or adverb (cf. §§ 528. 2, 529) ; thus, 0««^MtrrJiy «r«y

§ tl4LO. The pronoun aXXog is not only used retrospect^
weiy^ but also pros^pectively and distributively ; that is, it may
denote, not only a different person or thing from one which
has been mentioned, but also, from one which is to he men-
tioned ; or it may, in general, denote a difference among the
several individuals or parties which compose the whole num-
ber spoken of.
When &Xk0$ is proepeetive, and is followed by another 4ixx«f or an equiva-
lent pronoun used retroepeetively, it is commonly translated by one. When it
is dtetributive, it is combined with another 4txx«f , or with one of its derivatives^
and is commonly translated by two pronouns, as one . . another^ titie • • that,

Konoi. «. When die pronoon is wboOj indefinite in its reference, or, in
other words, when the verb simply expresses an action or state wUboat predi-
cating it of anj person or thing, the verb is termed imperwonal (in, not^ persdna,

kmdred nomn with a $mb$tamthe (or oAer appropriate) verb; thns. It raime

in the Sdpere, ting,; and an od/eefme joined with it is in the fteat. $i»g*^ or sk
the nemt. pbtr.for the §ing. (§ 451).
A. A Terb is often imtrodtued as impereonal, of which the subject is after-
wards expressed in an Inf, or dittinet damm ; as, 'Erti V i^»u mirS On «v

y. Personal and impersonal oonstnieti<His are so blended and interchanged,
that it is often difficult to determine, whether a verb is to be regarded in a par-
ticular instance as pereomal or impermmal^ and whether a neuter pronoun or
adjective connected with it is to be regarded as Nom. or Aec,; as, T/ iu «»r*v
miruf t [What needs him, or. What does it need him, § 432] What need i$
there that he ehould aekf ii. 1. 10. For the change of impersonal to personal
constructions by attraction, see § 551.
I, For the construction of verbs with the Gm. pabthive, see §§ 361. /i,
364.
§ 547. 3. The SUBSTANTIVE VERB is very often omitted^
especially if it is merely a copula. Its omission is particularly
frequent with verbals in -tiogy in general remarks and relative
clauses^ and with such words as avayxti^ Xff^^'^t <<x<Ki ^<f<^t
xaiQOQ, (upa, dijlog^ hoifiogy ipifovdog, dvvntog^ olog le, ^^diog, z^"

§ 940. II.) A singtdar verb may be joined with a pZu-
ral Nom, regarded acs but a single object of thought This
occurs chiefly in two cases : — (a) When the nominative is
neuter, according to the following
Special Rule. The Neuter Plural has its
VERB in the singular.
That the want of agreement has in this case become the nile, seems to haTO
arisen from the fact, that the- neater plural commonly denotes a mass of lifeless
things, and likewise to be connected with the usage in §§ 336, 451. Excep-
tions are, however, frequent ; chiefly, when things that have life are denoted,
or when the idea of plurality is prominent, or in the non-Attic poets for the
sake of the metre. Thus, T« ivirn^um ifriXivi, provisions failed, iv. 7. 1.

series of feminine plurals denoting natural phenomena is followed after an in-

^iuHf PI. Conv. 188 b. Cf. b.
(b) When the verb precedes^ and is hence introduced as
though its subject were, as yet, undetermined (cf. § 546. fi).
This construction is almost confined in prose to tan and ijy
(compare, in French, the use of il est^ and il y a). Thus,
'E#ri yk^ Xfjt9ty% *a) fim/t0) »a) U(k, for [there is to me] I have both aUar$

TfA9$t , . rtXXir«i Pind. 01. 11. 4. This construction was termed by the
eld grammarians "Sxnfut Il$9^ei^i»if or B«Mwri«f.
^ SSOm 5. Attraction. The verb is sometimes attract-
ed by a word in apposition with the subject ; usually an attri'
hue coming between the subject and the verb ; as,

and immediate. See § 555. — {b) From the formation of v
new theme^ with a strengthened meaning. See ^^ 265, 319. 2
— (c) From the variety and extent of the refiexive uses of thf

§ tlff4« As m most of the tenses the same form is bo^
tnid. and pass.^ it is but natural that the distinction should ht
sometimes neglected in the Put, and Aor. (§ 166). This oc
curs chiefly,

the ellipsis of a noun or reflexive pronoun (§ 427). Thus,

the reflexive pronoun is commonly employed ; more frequently with the actrra

2. The middle voice, by a transition of meaning, (a) often becomes hi iti

place of the passive (§ 656). Thus, — (a) Kfl<rr«, to stnite, niTTOfMu, to

U commonly determined which shall be the subject of the passive by one or

its subject, the name of a person to that of a thing, — If these preferences con
flict» sometimes the one prevails, and sometimes the other. The latter prefer^
ence often leads to construction by synecdoche (§ 438) ; thus, 'AirtTfin^itru

III. Use of the Tenses.
^ «S6S« A general view of the distinctive offices of the
Greek tenses, particularly as employed in the Indicative, has
already been presented (§§ 167, 168). In explanation and
completion of that view, it is essential to observe,
I. That, out of the Ind.^ the lenses, except the JW., have
no direct reference to a distinction of time, but simply to the
RELATION or STATE of the action as indefinite^ definite^ or
complete^ or, in other words, as doings done^ or having been
done (§ 168).
Hence^ if we omit the Fat., each of the three states or relations has bnt a
gingle tenee-form out of the Ind. This form, as it maito the distinction of
time only occasionally and indirectly, may be termed achronic («., not, x^^'
nit, relating to time) ; while the forms of the Ind,, as they properly and directly
mark this distinction (thongh sometimes used ackronicaUy), may be termed
chronic. The time of an action expressed by an achronic tense must be in-
ferred from the connection. Thus (the star denoting that a form is wanting)^
SuBj* Opt. Imp. Imp. Past.

BsicABKS. «. The Prbs^ in its widest generic sense, includes all the other
tmuea (see /3) ; as a definite tense nseii achr<micaUy (§ 565), it includes the
Imjpf, The Impf^ in its widest generic sense, includes all the past tenses
(§ 1 73) ; and the Aor., all the indefinite and complete tenses. The Pbbf., as a
generic tense, includes the Plup.
fi. The distinction of generic and specific belongs not merely to grammaticai
forms, but also to the ideas which these forms represent. Thus the idea of
PRESENT TIME, which applies specifically only to the passing moment, extends
in its generic application to any period including this moment ; and we speak
of the present months the present century ^ &c. In its widest extent, therefore,
it includes aU time. Hence general truths, existing states and habits, and oft-
recurring factSy belong appropriately to the present time.
§ t5C7. III. The relations of time have nothing sensible
to fix the conceptions of the mind. It ranges therefore with
freedom through all time, the past, the present, and the future ;
and, without difficulty, conceives of the past or future as
present, and even of the present or future as already past.
That the Greek language should have a peculiar freedom in
the interchange of tenses, is but the natural consequence of
the wonderful vivacity of the Greek mind. See §§ 330. 3,
576, 584, 585.
Rebcab's. «. The Pres. tense, when employed by the figure of owMm, in
speaking of past events, is termed the historic pbesemt. See § 576.
fi. Common facts, imagined scenes, and general assertions, not being oon-
fined to any particular time, may often be expressed in the present, past, or
ftiture, according to the view which the speaker chooses to take. £. g. we
may say, " The wisest often err," or " The wisest have often erred," or " The
wisest will oftm err." Thus, *H m^» ^«^ ivra^m viiZ*'* ^mu *i ^ itral^ia

§ «5C8. IV. The tense may vary according as an action
IS viewed in its relation to the present time^ or to the time of
another action^ either past or Juture, The tense of an Inf.
or Part, is commonly determined by its connection with anoth-
er verb, without regard to the present time. In the Jnd., the
tense is properly determined by the relation of the action to
the present time ; but in Greek, if the Ind. is dependent upon
another verb, its tense is often determined by the time of that
verb, particularly in indirect quotation. In the Sabj. and Opt,
modes, from their very nature, there is commonly a union of
the two considerations. Thus,

A. Definite and Indefinite.
^ «S69. The indefinite and the definite tenses are
thus distinguished. The former represent an action simply as
performed ; the latter represent it definitely as performing.
The former merely express that an action has been, is, or will
oe performed ; the latter present a picture of the action in the
course of its performance. The former take a single glance
at it, as one complete act conceived of as momentary ; the
latter observe its progress, as begun and going forward by con-
tinued or repeated effort, but not yet complete.
If action is conceived of as motion in a ttrdight lin&, the definite tensee vij

§ tS 7 O* 3. The Greek has the pewer of giving to narration a wonder*
lul variety, liib, and eneiigy, from iha freedom with which it can employ and
Intavdiange the Aor., Impf., and Histerioal Pres. Withooi drcumlocation, it
€an represent an action as oontinaed or momentary ; as attempted or accom-
plished ; as introductory or conclusive. It can at pleasure retard or quicken
the progress of the narrative, k can give to it -dramatic life and reality by
exhibiting an action as doing, or epic vivacity and eueigy by dismissing it aa
done. It can bring a scene ibrward into the strong light of the present, and
instantly send it back again into the ahade of the past. The variety, vivaci-
ty, and dramatic life of Greek narrative can be preserved but very imperfediy
in translation, from the fiict that the English has no definite tenses, except by
cjroomlecutwii, and has far len frteedom than the Greek in oniting.the past
and present tenses. Thus, *£«^ K nai ivmu^* \x»^»fn tl^^xxiint, Xiiw»¥9t

5. In verbs in which the Aor. was not fbrmed, or was formed with a differ
ent signification, the Impf. remained as both the definite and indefinite past
tense ; as iTv and i^n* (^^ 53, 55, § 301. 7), wliich are more frequently used

B. Indefinite and Complete.
§S77« I. The indefinite and the complete tenses are
thus distinguished. The former represent an action as per
formed in the time contemplated ; the latter represent it as, m
the time contemplated^ having already been performed. In the
former, the view is directed to the action simply ; in the latter,
it is specially directed to the completion of the action, and to
tlie state consequent upon its performance. Hence arise two
special uses of the complete tenses ; the one to mark emphat-
ically the entire completion or the termination of an action;
and the other, to express the continuance of the effects of ao
action. Thus,

^ O # 8« Remabks. «. The consequences of an action are nsnaSy
more obvious and niore permanent in that which is acted upon, than in that
which acts. The receiver feels the blow more deeply and longer than the giv-
er. We find here a reason why the complete tenses are used so much more in
the passive than in the active, and why, in the active, so many verba waot
them altogether (§§ 256, 580).
fi. As the object of the complete tenses is to ascribe the consequences of an
action, rather than to narrate the action, they naturally occur more fineqnenUy
in the Part, than in the other modes. Some modem languages, aa the £n^
lish, the French, the German, have no pass, form by inflection, except tha
Perf. Part
y. For the same reason, the transition in § 233 is natural and easy. Wa
iubjoin an example, which marks strikingly the distinction between the Pert
nsed as a Pres. and the Aor. ; Ti^tanp ai ^aififnt, those who ham died (leftr*
, ring to the past event) are dead (referring to the present state oonseqiMi

}. In the Epic, the use of the Flap, as Impf. or Aor. is more extended than
in the Attic, and has perhaps some connection with the usage in § 194. 3«
Thus, BiCifxM, went, A. 221. BiCXi{«fi £. 66.
^ S T 9* I. The Perf. is sometimes called a past, and sometimes a
present tense ; and neither without reason, since it marks the relation of a past
action to the present time. The action which it denotes is past ; bat the state
consequent^ to wliich it also refers, is present. The tense is therefore in its
time, as in many languages in its form, compound, having both a past and a
present element. The comparative prominence of these elements varies in dif-
ferent languages, in different words in the same language, and in different uses
of the same word. We remark, in general, that the present eiement has a far
greater prominence in the Greek tlian in the English Perf.
Z. An action is sometimes so regarded as continued in its effect, that the
Free, supplies the place of the Perf. This is the common use of the Pres. in
Hicv, to come, and »7x»fimt, to go (cf., in Eng., / am come, and / am gone) ; and
is not unfrequent in «»«i/« and »Xva0, to hear, ftttfiatt, to learn, nnmat, to con^
quer, and some other verbs. In these verbs, the Imp/, may supply the place
of the Fltq>. Thus, Eit »«X«v i|f««ri, you [come] have come opportunely, iv. 7.

^tS80« II. Unless the attention is specially directed to
the effect of an action, the generic Aor. more frequently sup-
plies the place of the specific Perf. and Plup. (§ 566. a), as a
more familiar, giore vivacious, and often a shorter or more
euphonic form. This use prevails especially in the active
voice (§ 578. a). The Aor. of)en occurs in immediate con*
nection with the Perf. or Plup. Thus,

^S89« II. The Future Perfect expresses the sense of
the Perf. with a change of the time ; that is, it repreeents the
state consequent upon the completion of an action as fiituro
As it carries the mind at once over the act itself to its com-
pletion €md results, it is sometimes used to express a future
action as immediate^ rapid^ or decisive^ and hence received its
old name of paulo-post-Juiure (pauk) post futurus, abotU to be
a little after). In verbs in which the Perf. becomes a new
Pres., the Fut Perf. becomes a new Fut. (§^233,239).

IV. Use of the Modes.
§ S 8 6« For a classification and designation of the modes
according to the character of the sentences which they form
(§ 329. N.), see H 27.
A. Intellective.
§987* Intellective sentences express the actual or the
CMiiingent (§ 929. N.). The idea of contingency is expressed
in two ways ; by the form of the verb, and by a particle, com-
monly aiv (Ep. xc or xfiV, Dor. x«). The two ways are often
united for the stronger expression ; and they may be both neg-
lected, if th6 idea is either not prominent, or is too obviotis to
require expression. The forms of the verb which in them-
selves express contingency are the Subjunctive and Optative
modes (§ 169). Intellective sentences not emplo3nng these
modes (either because they are actual, or because their con-
tingency is simply expressed by a particle or is not expressed
at all) employ the Indicative^ which is the generic mode
(§§ 177, 330. 1).
Rdcarks. 1. It may be said in general, that the Ind, expresses the actual;
He 8ubj, and Opt,, the eomtmgenL But it must be understood that this, lik*

all similar statements In grammar, has primary reference to the conoeptioiis of
the mind, rather than to the reality of things ; that is, to employ the techni-
cal language of philosophy, it most be taken mbjectiveUf, rather than objecticely
The contingent is often, from strong assurance or vivid fancy, spoken of at
actual ; while, on the other hand, the actual, from diffidence or courtesy a
some other cause, is not unfrequently spoken of as contingent. This state-
ment is also limited by the generic use of the Ind., as mentioned above.
2. An action which is now future has, from the very nature of things, somr
degree of contingency ; and therefore, in the Fut. tense, no distinction is made
between the Ind. and the Subj., but any rule requiring in other tenses th«
^ubj. in this requires the Ind. And even the use of tha Fut. opt. appears t«
be limited to the oratio obliquay in which it takes the place of the Fut. ind. in
the oratio recta (§§ 607, 608).
§ S 8 S« 3. The particle of oontingence, &9, may commonly be dis-
tinguished from the conjunction eiv for lav (§ 603) by its position, as it never
stands first in its clause, which is the usual place of the conjunction. It chief-
ly occurs with the past tenses of the Ind. and with the Opt., to mark tbem
as depending upon some condition expressed or implied ; with the Subj. after
various connectives ; and with the Inf. and Part, when the distinct modes
to which they are equivalent would have this particle. It is extensively used
with the Subj., in cases where it would have been omitted with the Opt., fat
the reason, as it would seem, that the separation, in form, of the Subj. from
the Ind. was later and less strongly marked than that of the Opt. (§ 177).
The insertion or omission of &* for the most part follows general rules, but in
some cases appears to depend upon nice distinctions of sense, which it is diffi-
cult* to convey in translation, or upon mere euphony or rhythm. Upon its
use in not a few cases, manuscripts differ, and critics contend. Verbs with
which &9 is connected are commonly translated into Eng. by the potential
mode.
§ 589. Contingency is viewed as either present or past;
that is, a contingent event is regarded either as one of which
there is some chance at the present time, or merely as one of
which there was some chance at some past time. Present
CONTINGENCY is expressed either by the Suhj.^ or by the pri'
mary tenses of the Ind. ; and past contingency, either by
the Opt.^ or by the secondary tenses of the Ind.
The tenses of the Subj. and Opt. are therefore reUted to each other as
nretent and past tenses, or, in sense as well as in form (§§ 168, \96),aB priauuy
and secondary tenses ; and the rule above may be thus given in a more ooa.'
densed form : —

Note. Future contingency is contamed in present ; for that which wiB A*
contingent, is of course contingent now,
§ tl90« Rebiarks. 1. It cannot be kept too carefully in mind, that
the distinction above has no reference to the time of the occurrence of an event,
but only to the time of its contingency. Thus, in the tv«> sentences, " I din
go if I wish," and " I could go, if I wished," the time of the goiny itscU is in

botb the Mine, i. e. future. Bat in the fbrmer sentence, the eontrnpency is
present, because it is left undecided what the person's wish is, and therefore
there is still some chance of iiis going ; while in the latter, the contingency \a
pnstf becaose it is implieil that the person does not wish to go, and therefore,
although there was some chance of his going before his decision, there is now
no chance. Hence, in the former sentence, present tenses are employed ; and
in the latter, past. ,
2. Tlie limits of past are far wider than those of present contingency ; for
there is nothing which it is proper for us to suppose at all, of which we may
not conceive that there was some chance at some distant period in past eternity.
The dividing line between present and past contingency may perhaps be thus
drawn; whatever is supposed wWi some degree of present expectation^ or in
present view of a decision yet to be had^ belongs to the head of present contin^
gency; but whatever is supposed without this present expectaHon or view of a
deeiaion, to the head of pagt contingency. Past contingency-, therefore, mdudes,
il.) all past supposition, whether with or without expectation at that time;
2.) all supposition, whether present or past, which does not imply expectation^
or eontempiate a decision^ that is, all mere opposition ; (3.) all suppositioii,
whether present or past, in despite of a prior decision. Thus : .
.A. PBESENT OOSmVOENCT.
JwiU go, if lean have leave (and I intend to ask for it).
/ t/UnA, that I may go, if I can have leave.
I wisht that you may go,
B. PAST ooimzroBHcnr.
(1.) Past supposition.
I thought, that I might go, if I eomUL have leave.
I wished^ that you might go,
(2.) Present suppositiim not implying expectation or oontemplatuig a de>
diion.
J would go, if I should have leave (but I have no thought of asking
for it).
I could go with perfect ease.
I should like to go,
(8.^ Present supposition in despite of a prior decision.
«. In regard to the present.
/ iM«/<f go, if I had leave (but I have none, and therefore I shall
not go).
i3. In regard to the past
I would have gone, if I had had leave (but I had none, and there-
fore did not go).
§ S9 1« 3. As the differe ice between the Subj. and Opt. is one of
time, rather than of essential offic*^ some have chosen to consider them as
imly different tenses of a general conjunctive or contingent mode. With this
diange, the number and offices of the Greek modes are the same with those
of, the Latin, and the correspondence between the Greek conjunctive and the
English potential modes becomes somewhat more obvious (see ^ 33). Ac-
ooniing to this classification, which deserves the attention of the student.

4. Contingent sentences, lilce actual (§§ 566 - 568, 576, 584, 585), are
liable to an interchange and blending of tenses. Past contingency is often
conceived of as present ; and present, as past Hence, primaiy tenses take
the place of secondary, and secondary of primary. This interchange may be
observed particularly between the Subj. and ()pt. modes.
§ 89ft» The Subj. and Opt occur, for the most part, in
dependent clauses ; and indeed some grammarians have re-
fused to regard them as being ever strictly independenU It
results from the principles alr^y laid down, that, in their usa
as dependent modes, the Suiij,^ fir the most part^ follows the
primary tenses; and the Opt.^ the secondary. To this gen-
eral rule, however, there are many exceptions.
KoTB. In the application of this rule, the tenses of the Imptrat., as firom
its very nature referring to present or ftiture time, are to be regarded as /Tn-
mary tenses ; those of the Inf. and Part., as primary or tecondary, according
to the finite verbs, whose places they occupy, or, in general, according to those
iqx>n which they themselves depend.
§ 598. In the expression of contingency, the Ind. is
properly distinguished from the Subj. and Opt by the greater
positiveness with which it implies or excludes present anticipa-
tion. Thus supposition with present anticipation is expressed
by the primary tenses ; but there is here this general distinc-
tion, that the Fut Ind. anticipates without expressing doubt,
while the Subj. expresses doubt. On the other hand, supposi-
tion without present anticipation is expressed by the secondary
tenses ; but with this general distinction, that the Opt. supposes,
either with some past anticipation, or without regard to any de-
cision, while the secondary tenses of the Ind. suppose in despite
of a prior decision.
Remarks. «. Tn the expression of contingency, the Imf^f. ind. has com-
monly the same dif erence from the Aor. and Plup,, as, in English, the Impf.
ind. and pot^tial from the PIup. In respect to the time of the ec^n,
therefore, tiie contingent Impf. ind. commonly refers to present time, and the
Aor. and Plup. to pa$t. See §§ 599, 601. ^j 603. h
fi. We may, say in general, that suppositum as fact is expressed by the ap-
propriate tense of the Ind. ()9 587, 603. «) ; suppontum that may beeom§
fact, by the Subj. ; supposition without regard to fact, by the Opt. ; and m^
position contrary to fact, by the past tenses of the Ind. ; whUe in these tenaot

of &9 with the past tenses of the Ind. to denote on action, not as occnrring at
a definite time, but fitmi time to time^ as the occasion might occur, or, ia
other words, to dmote a habitual action $ thus, n«XAi»«f y«^ i^n f*^9 &t nft

I S9S» The contingent modes are oflen used where the
might have been employed. The Opt. with av for the
(o.) Pres. or (/5.) Fut. ind. is particularly frequent ; and often
serves, by suggesting instead of asserting, to give to the dis-
course that tone of moderation and refined courtesy, which
was so much studied by the Greeks, especially the Athenians.
(See ^§ 604. b, 605. 5.) The use of the Subj. for the Ind. is
more limited, and occurs chiefly (for the Put.) in (/.) earnest
inquiry respecting one's self, and in (5.) strong denial. Thus, .

§ S96« We proceed to the application of the general
principles which govern the use of the distinct modes, to par-
ticular kinds of sentences, which may be termed, from their
offices or connectives, desiderative (expressing wish, from de-
sidero, to desire) y finals conditional^ relative^ and complement
tary (% 329. N.).
( I.) Desiderative.
^ S9V. A wish is expressed either with or without a
definite looking forward to its realization. In the former case,
it is expressed by the primary tenses ; in the latter case, by
the secondary. In the former case, (o.) if the wish is expressed
with an assurance that it will be realized, the Ind. Fut. is used -
but, {p.) otherwise, the Siibj. mode. In this use, both the Ind.
Fut. and the Subj. may be regarded as less direct modes of
expression instead of the Imperat. In the latter case, (/.) if
the time for realizing the wish Is already past^ the secondary
tenses of the Ind. are used with n yng and tti^s ' but, (5.) other-
wise, the Opt, mode. XSee §§ 590, 593.) Hence ^he Opt
becomes the simplest and most general form of expressing a
wish ; and from the frequency of this use, it has derived its
name (§ 169. 3). Thus,

to «e, PL Prot. 338 a. Un^h ri^V i^ttt i£sch. Sept 250.
Notes. (!•) A wish is often expressed in the form of a question. Hence
in Greek, as in other langoages, the interrogative Fut. often supplies the place
of the Imperat ; as, Ouk Sil^tfi* m rd^t^Tm i »») ■ . a<ptT% f*09n*t [Will you

Notes. (I.) The use dT the Sabj. as Imperat. occurs chiefly in the Isi
Per§, (where the Imperat. is wanting, § 170. N.)t and in the Aor witfi fin.
In the 2d Pers., the dbtinction is rarely neglected, that in prohibithna with fi4
and iti compounds^ the FreM. is put in the ImpercU.y but the Aor. in t/ie Suhj, ;
as, "bin l»2«iri fif,. ftnrt fr«Xf^i7ri vi. 6. 1 8. Mitr i^nTrt, f/tnr i^nr Wot
Soph. (Ed. C. 731. Mn)* i^-ixtv/i w. 168. UnV Wtxtv^^t ». 263. In the
3d Pers., the distinction is less observed. The foundation of the distinction
seems to have been this ; that the Pres. forbids an action more definitely than
the Aor. {< 569), and hence naturally adopts a more direct form of expresaion.
Thus, prohibition in the Pres. is often designed to arrest an action now doing,
while prohibition in the Aor. merely forbids, in general, that it should be done ;

but M»$) . . %ilfiri^ nor ehouid yon think, iii 2. 17. (2.) The use of the Subj.

(ill.) Conditional.
§ 603* In sentences connected by conditional conjunc-
tions, there is a great variety of conception, and consequently
of expression. The condition may be assumed, either (or.) as
a fact^ or (/9.) as that which may become a fact^ or (/.) as a
mere supposition toUhout regard to fact ^ or {d,) as contrary
to fact. In the first ccise (a.), it is expressed by the appro*
prtate tense of the Ind, ; in the second (/9.), by the Subj, ; in
the third (/.), by the Opt, ; and in the fourth (d.), by a past
tense of the Ind. (see §^ 590, 593). Of these modes, the
Ind. and Opt are usually connected by cl, and the Subj. by
idr (= (i and UP the contingent particle) or its shortened forms,
^r and atf' exceptions (?.), however, occur, though rare in the
Att. writers, and some of them doubtful. — The form of the
CONCLUSION is, for the most part, determined by thai of the
condition. In the first case (a.), the conclusion is regularly
made by the appropriate tense of the Ind, ; in the second (/9.),
by the Put. ind. ; in the third (/.), by the Opt. with av • and
in the fourth (^.), by a past tense of the Ind. with ay. The
form of the conclusion (f.), however, often depends upon other
causes, besides its relation to the condition, and cases of ana*
coluthon are very frequent. There is (i?.) sometimes even a
union of difierent forms in the same construction. If (^.) the
conclusion is itself a dependent clause, its form is commonly
determined by this dependence, and the condition usually con-
fcmns. Thus,

Notes, a. Among the conditions most naturally supplied, and therefore
most frequently omitted, are those of inclination with possibility and of possi-

^ 606* A sentence, which is introduced by a relative
(or by a similar particle of time or place) referring to thai
which is indefinite or general or not yet determined^ has a
species of contingency (§ 5M), and may hence employ the
Subj, or Opt, ; the Subj., when a future determination is now
contemplated, but otherwise, the Opt. (§ 590. 2). Which
mode should be employed will commonly depend upon the
preceding verb (^ 592). After these connectives av is regular-
ly used with the Subj. (sometimes compounded with the con-
nective) ; but not with the Opt., unless for some additional rea-
son. Thus,

here to notice occur in what is termed the arcOh obUqua, it wiB be Booeswrjr
to remark upon the character of this form of discoorae, and upon its distinc-
tion from the oraiio recta.
There are two ways of quoting the words of a person. In
tlie first, we simply repeat his words, without change or in-
corporation into our own discourse ; as, He said^ ** / will go^
This is termed direct quotation, or in Lat., oratio recta.
In the second, we make such changes and insert such connec-
tives as will render the quotation an integral part of our own
discourse ; thu8» He said^ thai he wovld go. This is termed
indirect quotation, or in Lat, oratio obliqua. This dis-
tinction likewise applies to the thoughts and feelings of persons,
and even to general truths and appearances.
NotB. Of these two methoda of quotation, the former is dramatic in its
character, presenting before ns the speaker in the utterance of his own words ;
but the latter is narrative^ simply relating wtiat the speaker has said. This
relation is made in Greek, by the use either of the distinct modes with their
connectives or of the incorporated modes. We have occasion at present to
treat only of the use of the distinct modes. For the use of tbe incorporated
e § 619.
§ 608* In the oratio ohliqua^ a thing is presented not as
actual, but as dependent upon the statement, thoughts, or feel*
ings of some person, and consequently as having some degree
of contingency. Hence it is properly expressed by a contin-
gent mode. This use, however, is confined to the Opt., which
limitation may be explained as follows. The oraiio obliqua^
from the very nature of quotation,.commonly respects the past,
and the cases in which it respects the actual present are too
few and unimportant to require special provision ; while in
those cases, so constantly recurring, in which the past is spoken
of as present, the very vivacity and dramatic character of this
form of narrative forbids the use of a contingent mode. Hence
the Subj. b used in the oratio ohliqua only in such cases as
would admit it in the oratio recta, while, on the other hand, of
the distinct modes.
The optative is the mode appropriate to the oratio obliqtta in
past' time.
With this Opt. Sp is not joined, unless for some additional
reason. Thus^

§ 609* Remarks. 1.- The Greek, from its peculiar spirit
of freedom, vivacity, variety, and dramatic life (^§ 330,576),
often mterchanges and blends the forms of indirect and direct
quotation, commonly passing from the former to the latter, but
sometimes the reverse. Thus,
A.) A sudden change is often made from indirect to direct quotation.
This change mav be made either («.) after the introductoiy particle ; or
(j3.) in the body of the quotation, commonly after a relative, a parenthetic
clause, or one of the larger pauses, and in the last case with the frequent
insertion of f^»j. Thus, -^ («.) Il^ol^ivs iTsrir, or* " Kvrii •//*<, U ^nrtTs^^

^ 6 1 3* The most direct expression of an act of the will
(§ 329. N.) is by the Imperative mode (% 169. 4). For other
less direct methods, see §§ 597-600, 602. 3, 604. b.
Remarks. 1. From the fondness of the Greeks for passing ftt>m indirect
to direct forms of expression (cf. §§ 576, 609, 670), the Imperat. is some-
times found in dependent sentences ; thus, &vnrif V 'O^ia^rtu • i9^ri fih Xiar

3. Such familiar imperatives as &yi, i/Vt, JUi, and ^i^i, may be used in the

4. An act of the will maj respect either the real or the ideal. Hence in
Greek, as in other languages, the Imperat. may be used to express supposition
or condition ; thus, ^'O/^tt ti tlfnrit f^t, but yet [let it have been aaid by me]

C. Incorporated.
§614. I. The Greek has great freedom in respect to
the employment of distinct or incorporated sentences, and in
respect to the mode of their incorporation. Thus (a.) a de-
pendent clause may be preserved entirely distinct ; or (/?.) its
9uhjtci or most prominent suhslantive may be incorporated in

tiie leading clause, leading k otherwise disdnct; or (/.) ill
verb may be also incorporated as an Infinitive; or (d.) its verb
may be incorporated yet more closely as a Participle. The
union oAen becomes still closer by an attraction, which renders
the subject of the Inf. or Part, the same with the subject or en
adjunct ofAe principal verb. This attraction has th^ forms ;
in the first (c), the principal verb adopts the suliject of the de-
pendent clause ; in the second (£.), the. Inf. or Part, referring
to the same person or thing with the principal verb, adopts the
same grammatical subject ; in the third (i^.), the Inf. or Part
adopts for its grammatical subject, an adjunct of die principal
verb. E. g.

press the subject^ the direct or indirect object^ the time^ cause^
purpose^ manner^ means^ condition^ restriction, preliminaries^
result, &c., of the verbs with which they are connected.
Rkmarkb. 1. The use of both the incorporated modes is far more <
sive in Greek than in English. Hence we often translate the GredL Inf. and
Part, by finite verbs with connectives (thaty when, while, aa, and, if, althomgh,
because, eince, in order that, &c). Sometimes, also, from a difference of idiom,
the Inf. and Part, are interchanged in transhition ; as, T« ^ r»n pixmv fiitn
tfirc ttiivai fSfi'Tdt Sv m^vkmrnrm Xm/itCmvutj but he thought that he alone knew U
to be moit easy to seize the unguarded property of friends, ii. 6. 24. n^Arq-sMi?

§019* 2. The nse of the 'incorporated modes, particularly the Inf.,
is very great in the oratio obliqua (§ 607), sometimes («.) extending even to
Bubsidiar}'^ danses (cf. «^ 611. 2); and being iiiterchanged and blended not
only (j3.) with other forms of the or€Uio obliqua, but also (y.) with those of
the oratio recta. Thus,

<3 630* I. The general rule for the construction of the
Infinitive is the following : —
Rule XXX. The Infinitive is construed as
a neuter noun (§ 445), Hence,
(a) The Inf. may be the subject of any word which would
agree with a noun ; whether appositive^ adjective^ article, pro-
noun, or verb, {b) The Inf. may depend upon any word
which would govern a noun ; whether substantive, adjective^
verb, adverb, or preposition, (c) The Inf. may be used, like
a noun, to express a circumstance ; particularly such as are
denoted by the instrumenkil and modal Dot, (§415), and by
the Ace. of specification (§ 437). Thus,

^ 03 3* Remarks. 1. The article is often prefixed to
the Inf. to gire promineDce to its substantive character, or to
define the relation which it sustains as a substantive, by mark*
ing the case. If the Inf. is governed by a preposition, the in
Sertion of the article is required. The article is oflen prefixed,
especially in the tragedians, where it would not hate been ex*
pected, and is oflen in the Ace. (of direct object^ effect^ or
mecification)^ where another case might have been expected.

used in a great variety of expressions which may be referred
to the Ace, of spedjkation^ and the adverbial Ace. When
thus employed, it may be termed the infinitive of specifica-
tion, and the adverbial infinitive. In these uses it is van*
ously translated, and in some of them it is often said, though
not in the strict sense of the term (§ 343. N.), to be absohde.

pronoun and finite verb, and is most frequently translated by

be translated by a noun. It occurs chiefly with the article, but
sometimes without it, if the class only is defined. Thus,

Notes, (a) The Per/. Part, irith fi>c/ b especially common, particularly
in the passive, either to supply the deficiencies in the inflection of the complete
tenses (§§ 168. m, 169. ^ 213. 2, 234), or to direct the attention more ex-
pressly to the state consequent upon an action, "^x" occurs most frequently
with the Aor, act, part, and in the dramatists, commonly conveying the ac-
cessory idea of pouession, continuance, or permtency (holding on upon an ac-
tion. Cf. § 632. N.). "Efx^f^* with the Fut, Fart,, forma a more immediate
Fut. The Part of a verb of motion with »7xofMu is a stronger form of expres-
sion for the simple verb, (b) The substantive verb is sometimes omitted
(§ 547); as, Ati»yftif [sc. Urit], it !•<»<, rnvii xetrimvuf Soph. Ant. 576.
§ 63 8* III. A Part with its subject, or an impersonal
Part. (§ 617), of^en forms so distinct a clause, that it is said
(though not in the strictest sense of the term, § 343. N.) to be
put ahsolvie. This occurs most frequently in the Gen.^ and,
after this, in the Ace, The far less frequent instances in
which the Nom. and Dot. aite used in the same way, may be
commonly referred at once to anacoiuthon, or other construc-
tions already mentioned (%% 344, 401, 410, 420). The Gen.
and Ace. absolute may also be referred, though often less di-
rectly, to the Gen. and Ace. of time (§§ 378, 439) ; and as, in
this use, a Part, and substantive commonly denote an evenly but
an impersonal Part' a continued state^ the following general
rule has arisen, which is not, however, without exception.

Part, are, in various ways, interchanged and mixed ; the former giving mors
prominence to the Part., and sometimes arising from a change of subject ; the
latter showing more clearly the relation of the Part, to the rest of the sen-
tence. Thus, AmCtuf09T»tf [sc avrUt] (aUtm, o VXtvs nlrc7t Xwi^fn [= )m»«

§ 643* From the verb is formed a passive adjective in
"tiogy expressing obligation or necessity (§ 314. f ). This verbal
is oflen used impersonally^ in the neut. sing, or plur., with ioxl
(§ 546. a). In this use, it is equivalent to the Inf* act. or mid,
with dtl or XQV ' thus, ^gnxiov ftoi doxn thai [= a*inttadai

to consider]^ i. 3. 11. *Ed6nu dmnxiov thai, it seemed that they
must pursue, iii. 3. 8. Hence it iniitates in two ways, as fol-
lows, the construction of this Inf., and is therefore treated of in
this connection.
^ 64S* Impersonal verbals in >Tioy, or -no, (a.) govern
the same cases as the verbs from which they are derived ; and

cludes the ADVERB, the preposition, the conjunc-

TiON, and the interjection. Of these, however,
the interjection is independent of grammatical con*
struction. The other particles are construed as
follows.
A. The Adverb.
(^646. Rule XXXIIL Adverbs modify sen-
tencesj phrases^ and words ; particularly verbsj ad-
jectiveSj and other adverbs. Thus,

Rbmabkh. 1. An adverb modifying a sentence or phrase is usoally parsed
as modifying the verb or leading word of the sentence or phrase. Such parti-
eles may also give a special emphasis, or bear a special relation to other words
fai the sentence or phrase ; thus, 'H^i 7f y% tsxHfiUf, we at leaet are metoru>u$

§ 847* S. Of the negative particles $h and ^4 the fbnner is nsed in
timple, absolute negaikm, and the latter in dependent or qualified negatUmf hence
in tuppositiont prohibUion, &e, ; or, in the language of metaphysicians, oi is
the obfeethsy and ftti the subfecthe negative (cf. § 587. 1). It follows that «&

same mode, olt is more decided and emphatic than ftn> Thus, Ov» «!)«, / do

Note. Interrogation is sometimes expressed by negative assertion, and
assertion by negative interrogation. Hence negative particles sometimes ap-
pear to pass into interrogative or affirmative ones ; as, Mi( ^m )««m>/m» » [We

Greek, when as yet the union of the preposition and verb had not become firm-

occurs most frequently in the lyric portions), it seldom inserts any thing mors
than a mere particle between the preposition and the verb. Thus, *A^o Xm^t^

Remarks. 1. By like parts cf a sentence are meant words and phrases of
like construction, or performing like offices in the sentence, and which united
by conjunctions form compound subjects^ predicates, adjuncts, &c. Some con*
nective adverbs also may sometimes be regarded as uniting like parts of a sen-
2. Like parts of a sentence are commonly, but not necessarily, of the same
part of speech and of sunilar form. In many cases, it seems to be indifi^rent

plying an ellipsia) as connecting whole sentences.

5. In many connections, two forms of construction are etjuaDy admissible^
the one with, and the other without, a connective. The two forms are some-
times blended. See §§ 461. 3, 609, 6i9. N., 628.
6. A conjunction is sometimes used in Greek, where none would be employed
ill English ; e. g., when vrcXvg is followed by another adjectiye ; as, n«xxa n
»mi im-trnhum ^nXiytvr^ ▼• 5. 25.
§ 999m 7. The GredLS, especially the earlier writers, often employ the
more generic for the more specific connectives (§ 330. 1), or instead of other
ibrms of expression ; as, 'Ei»^«y^avi • ^x*^^ ^^ *Xti»tv tS ^Xt* vi^ivri ^41,

D. Concluding Remarks. .
§ Off 7« I. In Greek, as in other languages, the different
classes of particles oflen blend with each other in their use.
Thus, (cr.) adverbs sometimes take a case, as prepositions ;
(/J.) prepositions are sometimes used without a case, as ad-
verbs ; (;'.) the same particle is used both as an adverb an i £is
a conjunction, or as a connective and a non-connective ad-

^ 660. IV. In the doctrine of .particles, especially con-
nectives, the figures of syntax hold an important place ; thus,
A. Ellipsib.
Ellipsis here consists either (««.) in the omission of the par-
ticles themselves, or (/I), far more frequently, in that of words,
and even whole sentences, connected or modified by them.
a. Among the particles most frequently omitted are copu*
lative and complementary conjunctions (§ 339. N.) ; as,

fWl <&» tibic, iM MoU dbiert, iv. 1 18.
§00 1* /5. Connected sentences especially ab6und in el-
lipsis, from the ease with which the omission can be supplied
from the connection. We notice, among the great variety of
oases that might be mentioned, the frequent ellipses,
1.) In replies; as, ^^ISt^rtt • r< n Wi»fifat\^ *0 %* i^ix^Uart, trt tS
^^ tlx frr<v] L 6. 7. 'Euwitrtt Tt rtiu *0^«»t««, irt «^i» altxnhlf lb. 8.
Nam. (a.) In a dialogue or address, % speaker often commences with a
connective (most frequently* an adversative or causal coogunction), from re£N>
coce to something which has been expressed or which is mutually understood ;
as, *AXX* i^MTi, hutyau»e$y iii. 2. 4. 'E/m) T th ^avX$9 hxu fT««i vi. 6. 12.
07m 7«f rM fftrnx^tat^ Z Eof^i, r«» «^tX^«v { i. 7. 9. (6.) In like manner the
Voc is often Mowed by a connective ; as, *n yvfau^ tpn, i^tfM V% r« ri Urn %
Mem. iL 1. 26. ^H Ki^»«, rU yk^ • • hytf^ni^u \ ». 501.
9.) Between two connectives ; as^ *Aaji^ [sc. «'«m«imm] yk^ »mi itt^ttint*
iUid^m UL 2. 82. Cf. y. 7. 11. *Axxk yi» Vthwa in, 2. 26. U^^m ^
^Xmrrmv fiu • mmi [sc rmunf fti] yk^ ifin Mi*u vi. 2. 18. 'Km) yk^ »m\
mm^m Ifminr* iL 2. 15. — And yet, perhaps, in such examples as these, »X.
Xk ytif or luii ym^ may be regarded as forming but a single compound con-
Bective^ or one of the particles may be regarded as a mere adverb (§ 657. y).
§ 669» 3.) With if^ especially in expressing compariaon, de$ign^
pretoKe, possUnKtjf, 6c. ; as, 0iTr§* 4 [sc 0utid ra^^ £f nt &9 ^ir«, quicker

. NoTBS. (a.) From the frequent use of «f with the aocosative after Terbt
of motion to express the porposed end of the motion (§ 429), it came at last
to be regarded as a mere preposition, suppljing the place of wfif or tU, bat
chiefly before names of persons ; as, ri«^Mr«4 J*f fimnkim, goes to the king, L
S. 4. (6.) *fLf is often used to render expressions of qoantitj less posittTd;
as, 'E;^*** [sc. «jlfr« 9vXkevt} if nfT»»»vUvs, having such a number as 500, L
«. about 500, i. 2. 8.

NoTB. When two similar danses are connected, a pronoun, preposition, or
tther word is sometimes (chiefly by the poets) omitted in the first clause, uid,
for the sake of emphasis or the metre, or by reason of other ellipses, inserted

Note. Ob is sometimes used in like manner, with a finite v^5 supplying
(with 7ti or ttf) the place of an Inf. ; as, *A^f u^0at g ., »rt «» vafiry, to denjf

§ 000* I.) In the use of /Ml «^ inth the Infinitive and Participle, as
A rimpte negative* This chiefly occurs (1.) after negative and interrogative sen-
tences, and (2.) after some expressions of ehame and fear. Here ftn §u takes
the place of nmple /mi, and (3.) may even be wholly redundant after words
where fin would be so (§ 665). Thus, (1.) Oihig yi ^* «y trt/ruty mvi^Mwiv

Notes. (I.) Two negatives in the same sentence have commonly their
distinct force, («.) when one applies to the whole sentence, and the other to a
part only ; and (fi,) when two sentences have been condensed into one. Thus, •

§ SO 9. Anacdutbon is frequent in the connection of sen
tences. The clause completing the construction is oflen either
omitted or changed in its form. Hence, also, the regular cor-
respondence of particles is sometimes neglected. Thus,

^6T1. V. The Greek especially abounds in combina-
tions of particleSf and in elliptical phrases having the power of
particles. The use of these sometimes extends farther than
their origin and structure would strictly warrant. A few ex-
amples of these combinations and phrases are given below,

PROSODY.
JEachjhaM,
^679. Prosed J treats of Quantity, of Ver-
8IF.ICATI0N, and of Accent.
CHAPTER I. .
QUANTmr.
^676. In Greek, all vowels and syllables are
divided, in respect to quantity (i. e, the time of
their utterance according to the ancient pronuncia-
tion), into the long and the short; and the long
are regarded as having double the time of the short.
Note. Hence the unit in measuring metrical quantity b the short syflsf-
ble, or the breve (brevis, short), and a long vowel or syllable is equal to tav
itreves. For the marks of quantity (— ^), see § 16. 4.
§ 077. Quantity is of two kinds, natural and local.
Natural quantity has respect to the length of the vowel in its
own nature ; but local quantity, to the effect which is produced
by the position of the vowel in connection with other letters
or syllables. With reference to the first distinction, vowels
and syllables are said to be long or short by nature ; with ref-
erence to the second, by position. Thus, in o^<jpa$, both sylla-
bles are short by nature, i. e. in the natural quantity of the
vowels ; but both become long by the position of these short
vowels before two consonants (|§ 51, 688).
Note. The quantity of a syllable is alwaj^ the natural quanti^ of
the vowel which it uontains, unless some change is [Hmlnoed by p«fi4tfiTy-

CH. 1.] NITURAL QUANTIFT. 411
Hence it is nnial, in proeody, to regard the vowel as the representative of the
■yllable ; and language is often applied to the vowel which in strict propriety
belongs only to the syllable. Thus, in Sft^m^ it is common to say that the
vowels are bng by position ; while, in strict accuracy, the quantity of the
voweb themselves is not changed, but the $^llabU» become long from the time
occupied in the otteranoe of the successive consonants.
I. Natural Quantity.
^ 6T8. Rule L The vowels iy and ci, all
diphthongs, all vowels resulting from contraction or
crasis, and all cu'cumflexed vowels, are long ; as
the vowels in ^/iSvj nksiovs^ yXtoaads (§ 34), 8vs
(§ 68), xav (§ 40), XdSi ^fJ^tv, nvg.
RmffARK. An vowds which result from the union of two vowels have^
from their very nature, a double time. See §§ 25, 29 - 31, 723.
^ C79. Rui^ IL The vowels « and o are
short ; as in fpigo(uv.
% 680. ' Rule III. The doubtfiil vowels
(^ 24. j3) are commonly short ; as in x^^iviii.
To this general rule for the doubtful vowels there are many
exceptions ; which renders it necessary to observe the accent,
the SPECUL LAWS OF INFLECTION AND DEBIVATION, the DIA-
LECT, and the usage of the poexs.
A. Accent.
^081. From the general rules of accent ($726), we
learn, that in natural quantity,
«.) Every drewmJUxed vowd is bng (§ 678).
fi,) In jMrojryftmet, If the vowel of the ulHma b Aori^ the vowel of the pa*
miU is also short ; and, on the other hand, if the vowel of the penuli is hng^
the vowel of the tMma is also long. Hence, in fimtmUt^ »«^»/Mf, and ;^x«-
ftpif^ the vowd of the penult is short ; and, in Aif)«, ^m^ and tutfuiu tha
Towel of the ultima is kog.
y^ In pnparoxytomtt and pniperi9pomes^ the vowel of the ultima is short ;
ti in it^M^«i IvM/Mf, wix$»¥$ * ^X»^ ^i't^Si )m7^i/^
B. Inflection.
^089* In the common affixes of declension and conju*
gation, the doubtful vowels are short, except cases of contrac*
tion, -a in the Sing, of Dec. I., and -^oX for vol in the nude
Present.

II. Local Quantity.
^688. Rule V. A vowel before two con-
sonants or a double consonant is long (^^ 51,
677. N.) ; as in ofi^a^j iXni^ovxss iidxp.
Kois. TUB mle ci poeition holds, when either one or both of the oooa^
Hants are in the same word with *the rowel ; and commonlj, also, when both
consonants or the doable consonant begin the next word.
$089. Exception. When the two consonants are a
nmte followed by a liquid in the same simple word^ the quan«
tity of the yowel is offen not affected, especially in Attic po
etry.
KoTSB. 1. TUB exception lesolts ftom the easy flowing together of the
mote and liqoid, so that thej produce the efiect of onlj a single consonant.
SL In the Att, the quantity of the vowel is commonly not affected, if the
mute is tmooth or rough, or, if micUUe, is foBowed by ^, A middle mute fd*
lowed by any liquid except ^ commonly renders the vowel long. Urns, the
penult is regnhuiy short in rirX*;, r(»Mi>, «:«r^f, %ii^mxi*»ty ytniXn, MtAMM
8. According to PorKm, the tragic poets sometimes leave a vowel short be>
ftte the two liquids fAu
§ 890. Reicabk. a short vowel is sometimes length'
ened before a single consonant or another votoel^ especially in
Epic poetry. This occurs chiefly m the following cases :
1.) When the consonant may be regarded as doubled m pnmuiuiaHon. lUs
applies especially to the liquids, and in the case of these (chiefly initial /,
cf. § 64. 1) sometimes extends even to Attic poetry ; as, AtoXdv [as if ^XX-]

847, ftiyA fdmtf .ffisch. Ft. 1023.
8.) When the digeanma ($ 22. I) has been dropped ; as, yiCs S^i* [Ftliv,
§§ 142. 4, 143. $] I. 419, »/v i x6nt X. 42, v'^i't ^i^f [FmmvJ L 147.-*
Epic usage ^>pears to have been variable in respect to the dlgamma. It some-
times appears to have had the force of a consonant, and sometimes only that
of a breathing.
3.) Before a tMuetdine eamtra (§ 699. 4), and sometfanee, without a <
by the mere force of <the arm (§ 695) ; as, SfftA • OSrtt «. 866, Aw^ Un Z.

NoTB. In Hexameter verse, one of three successive short syllables, a short
between two long syllables, and a short syllable at the beginnmg of a line^
must of necessity be made long. The second case sometimes occurs in the
Amk (§ 695). Thus, *A^»fUf4mt S, 46 ; 'ArsXif«r«« iy» B. 781 (e£ 'A#»A^

*A^f, 'A^if £.31. See other examples above.
^691. Rule VI. A long vowel or diphthong
at the end of a word may be shortened, if the next
word begins with a vowel.
Remarks. I. In the theds of Hexameter and Pentameter verae (§§ 704,
705), this shortening is the general rule ; as, *H/Mr{^ Iv) d»^ U 'A^yt7 TiiAi4i
m(r^. A. 30. T7i#, I ^b KrUr«P, i I* if Etf^^tH 'A»T»^UnH. B. 621.
2. This rule does not apply to the Iambic and Trochaic metres of the drama,
aa there the hiatos is not allowed.
8. A long yowd or diphthong is sometimes riiortened before another yoirel,
in the middle of a word; as, V«-«yM m. 379, •In («r) N. 275, ramtrn Soph.
Fh. 1049, %%iXm!t Ar. Pint 850. See also § 1 50. y.
4. Some explain this shortening by supposing the bng vowel («, «, «i ti, m,
{ 29. •) or diphthong to be half elided bdore the following vowd («7jc« U) ; or
the sat(iimcttve of the diphthong to be used with a consonant power (l^r^^ft).
^693. Rule VII. The last syllable of every
verse is common.
That is, the metrical panse at the end of the verse renders the quantity of
Om last qrOAble indiffinen( ; and it may be regarded aa either hmg or diort
aooording to the metre.
KoTB. In some kinds of verse, the scandon is oontinnoos ; i. e. the verses
are formed into systems (§ 700), at the end of which only a common final
pliable is allowed, the preceding syllables bdng all snbject to the roles of
pfosody, aathoogh in the middle of a verse.
§ 093* Bebiabkb. 1. In respect to qoantity, both natoral and lo-
cal, the different dialects and kinds of poetry vaiy greatly. The greatest li-
cense appears in Epic poetry, which arose before the laws and usage of the
language became fixed ; and the least in the dialogue of comedy, which con-
formed the most doeely to the language of common lift. Of elegiac, lyric,
and tragic poetry, the two former approached more nearly to the Epic, and tha
latter to the comic.
2. In giving the rules of quantity, never adduce position, unless some
diange has been made firom the natural length of the vowd. For convenient
distinction in metrical analysis, a vowel whose quantity is to be referred to
Rules I. and II. may be said to be long or short by nature; to Rule III.,
ly the jfeneral rule for the doubtful voweU ; to Rule IVtfiy derivation ; to Rule
v., by portion before two eon§oMant»f or a doiUtk eoneonant; to Rule VL, by po*
tiHon before a word begimming wi^ a vowdf to Rule VIL, by poeition at the end
of Cft« veree. When the quantity is not determined by general rules, dto spa-
dal rulea ; or if these do nM apply, adduce authoH^ (§ 687)» Mturo, mnk^

§ 999. The knag ^Uables are natoially pronounced with
a greater stress of tl^ yoioe than the short This stress is
termed arsis {uQaig^ eleoation)^ while the alternate weaker tone
is termed thesis (^iai^, depfission). Th^se terms are also
applied to the parts of the rh3rthm which are thus pronounced.

nity, and strength, the poet baa the power of greatly varying the exprea^ioa

fi. Iambic, Trochaic, and Anapsstic verses are common^ measmed, not faj
dngle feet, but by dipudies or pairs of feet (}t^0iim, double foot, from )«# and
irovs). When they are measured by single feet, a verse «f one foot is termed
a monopody ; of two, a dipody ; of three, a tripodfy ; of four, a tetnpod^, or
^uatemarius; of six, a hexapody, or seaorncs, &c.
§698. Verses are named, — (1.) From the prevailing
foot; as, lamhiCi Trochaic^ Dactylic^ AruxpiBStic. — (2.) Prom
some poet who invented or used them, or from the species of
composition in which they were employed ; as, il/catc, from Al
csBUs ; Sapphic^ from Sappho ; Heroic^ from its use in cele
brating'the deeds of heroes. — (3.) From the number of
measures (i. e. of feet, or dipodies^ § 697. /J) which they contain ;
as, monometer (fiovofingog^ of one measure) <^ dimeter (di/Mttgog^
of two measures), trimeter^ tetrameter, — (4.) From their degree
of completeness ; thus a verse is termed acatalectic (axaiolii-
xTOff, not leaving off^ sc. before its time, from «- priv. and xaTo-
iiJ/«), when its measure is complete ; catalectic (xorraJlijxfixo^),
when its last foot is incomplete ; brachycat^dectie (/5^«rvff,
9hort), when it wants a whole foot at the end ; hyperctUalectic
(vnsQy over), when it has one or two syllables over ; and ac^*

phalotu {ixitpaXog^ headless) when it wants a syllable at the
beginning.
RwMARKB. m, A catalectio verge is said to be eaialeetie on one BjfOaiik (in
fylUibam), on two tyUablu (in dissyllabum), &c^ according as the imperfect
foot lias one, two, or more syllables. Dactylic ver&es ending with a spondee
or trochee (§ 692) are by some regarded as acatalectic, and by others as cat-
alectic on two syllables ; e. g. the common Hexameter (§ 704).
/S. A lyric Terse sometimes begins with an introductory syllable, termed an
muMtnuU («M»^«vri«, ttrUdng vp) ; or with two such syllables, forming what
b termed a bam (fiti^is, foundation). In these introductory syllablei^ the
quantity is commonly indifferent. A base sometimes consists of more than
two syllables, and the term is sometimes applied to a monometer in any spe*
des of Terse.
y. In the dramatic poets, exdamations often occur extra metrum (L e. not
included hi the metre) ; as, ^ivl Eur. Alo. 536, 719, 1 102. Ti fS % Soph,
(Ed. C. 315. Tdkmifm I lb. 318.
^ 000« CiBSURA. Composition in verse consists of two
senes ; the metrical series^ divided into feet and verses ; and
the significant series^ divided into words and sentences. These
two series must, of course, correspond in their great divisions ;
but if this correspondence is carried too far, it gives to the
composition an unconnected, mechanical, and spiritless char-
acter. The life and beauty of poetry depend essentially upon
the skilful and varied interweaving of the two series. The
ciUUng of the metrical series by the divisions of the significant
series is termed ccMura (Lat from ctedoj to cut). It is of two
principal kinds ; the c<esura of the foot^ and the casura of the
verse. The former is the cutting of a foot by the ending of a
word ; the latter is the cutting of a verse by a pause permitted
by the sense (termed the caswrdl pause).
RBacABKS. I. (a) The csssura of the verse is more frequently, but not
Decessarily, a ccsura of the foot (6) When a foot-cssnra separates the arsis
from the thesis, it is likewise termed a aesitra of the rhythm, (c) A caesura is
. aometimes allowed between the parts of a compound word ; as, Kmj /* «ff|rr
^XJ^ykmrettf \ wtii»Df. JEach. Pr. 172. (d) A syllable immediately pre-
ceding a csBSura is termed a e*Bmral tyUabU.
2. The coincidence d the diyisions of the metrical series with those of the
significant series is termed dueresie Osmi^i^sf, dimeion). The most important
diiBToees are those at the end of verses, systems, or stansas. A foot-diaeresis
occurs whenever the division of words corresponds with the division ot feet.
Hence a verse-caBsnra may be a foot-diaeresis ; e. g. the pastoral (Rbk. 5).
8. The verse-caBsura (often called simply the caBsura) not only contributes
to the proper interweaving of the metrical and significant series, but affords ^
gratefbl rdief to both the voice and the ear. See Bsm. 6. j»
4. When the caesura follows a syllable pronounced with the arsis, it ii
ivmed wuuaJine; with the thesis, feminine. A caesura in the second foot ii

between two words, when the fint ia tit Ht )<ft f*^, i^ni, or a word ending in

*rCi#ryr«i^ P. 87.
(b.) In Attic poetry, synizesis occurs chiefly, — (a) In the endings .<««,
••Mv, .M of Dec in. (§ 116. «)• — (6) In a few nngle words and forms ; as,
Stit Ear. Or. 399. — (c) In the combinations H oh and ft,^ ov, which are
always pronoonoed as one syllable. — (<f) In some other combinations in
which the first word is 4> i* ftti, l^rti, orlyti • as, f^hit^iuu Eur. Hipp. 1335,
tytTtlf* Soph. Ph. 585.
8. Hiatus. Hiatus between words was admitted the most fi:eely in Epic
poetry, where however it may be <rften removed by the insertion of the di-
gamma (§ 22. )). It was the most studiously avoided in Attic poetry, es-
pecially in' the Tragic Trimeter (§ 712), where it was scarce allowed, except
after the interrogative r/, and some interjections, or words used in exclama-
tion; as,«7lyi;i lyii! .£sch. Ag. 1257.
§ 703« 4. In the following exhibition <^ metres, the division of feet
win be marked by a single bar ( i ) ; the division of dipodies by a double
bar ( II ) ; and the verse-caesura by an obelisk ( f )• sometimes doubled ( ^).
A base is denoted by B. In the examples which are given, the accents and
breathings are mostly omitted, that they may not interfere with the marks oi
quantity ; and these marks are employed alike to denote the metrical quan-
tity, whether natural or local. Hence the common syllable at the end of a
Hue (^ 692) is marked according to the rhythm in which it ooeurai. Some
examples are added of analogous metres in our own language.
A. Dactylic Verse.
§ 703. The place of the fundamental dactyl is often sup-
plied by a spondee (_ w w = ).
§ 704. I. The common Hexameter or Heroic Verse
consists of six feet, of which the first four are either dactyls or
spondees, the fifth commonly a dactyl, and the sixth always a
spondee.
Remabks. 1. When the fifth is a spondee, the verse is termed ijimdatc^
and has commonly an expression of greater weight or dignity. This occurs
most frequently when the verse ends with a word of four syllables;
2. The favorite caesura of the verse is the penthemim, which is almost
equally masculine and feminine (§ 699. 4). After this, the most frequent c»-
suras are the masculine hephthemim, and the pastoral (6 699. 5). — Even
when the penthemim is not the principal verse-cseeura, it is yet seldom wanting
as a ibot-CiBflura. It is stated, that in the first book of the Iliad, 290 lines
tigve the masc penthemim, 315 have the fun., and only 6 have neithv.

This cflBsora is sometiines deferred, so as to follow a short syllable at. the begin-

4. In respect to the feet, the following should be observed, (a) An ana-

oessive dipodies. (6) A dactyl rarely follows an anapant or spondee in th«

that the system may close with the cadence of the common Hexameter. A

§ 71 1. The place of the fundamental iambus may be
supplied by a tribrach (^ _ = w w w)» except at the end of a
line. To add dignity and variety to the verse, the first foot of
a dipody is very often lengthened to a spondee, and not unfre-
quently to a dactyl or an anapaest
Noras. The comie poets admit the am^mt in every place except the last
of a TerM or system. The same license exists in trage^ in proper names
eootaining two short between two long syllables.
§ 7 1 9. I. The Iambic Trimeter Acatalectic (oflen
called the Scnarius^ § 697. p) is the principal metre of dra-
matic dialogue (^ 708. 1).

CHAPTER III.
ACCENT.
^733. In ^ery Greek word, one of the three last syl-
lables was distinguished by a special tone of the voice.
Bemabks. I. This tone \a oommonfy' spoken of simi^y as Ae ta/M, or IhB
accent. Its precise nature we cannot now determine. It seems to have re-
sembled, in some degree, but with important difitsrences, that which we call
accent in English orthoepy. That it never fell upon any syllable before the
antepenult, shows that the Greeks fdt the same difficulty in the utterance of a
long train of syllables after their accent which we feel after oura. See also
§ 733. 2.
3. The Tersification of the andent Greeks was founded upon quantity with-
ont regard to accent ; that of the modem Greeks is founded upon accent with-
out regard to quantity. We cannot resist the conclusion from this, that in the
ancient language the distinction of quantity was the more prominent to the
ear ; while in the modem language the reverse is strikingly trae (§ 19). At
the same time, the distinction of accent was evidently the more intellectual in
Its character ($ 734) ; and, if less marised by the ear, was far more so by
the understanding.
3. To those who pronounce the Greek in the usual method, according to
quantity, the study of the accent is still highly useful, as serving, — (a) To
distingnlBh different worde, or different tense* <^ the same word ; as u/aI (en-
clitic, § 732), to be, tffu, to go; i, the (^ 731), I which; wirt t when? wM
(encL), once; iXXm, other things, «>.X«, but; XtMiXof, throwing stones, xJi»
C«X«(, thrown at with stones (§ 739. b). ~ (6) To distinguish different forms
of the same word; as the Opt fi0uXt6^»t, the Inf. fisuktug-at, and the Imp.
fi«»Xto0'tu (f f 84, 35). — (tf) To ascertain the quantitg of the doubted vow-
els (§§ 681, 726). — (d) To show the original form of words. Thus the cir-
cumflex over Ti/uiy pxS, ^n\S, marks them as contract forms of the pure
verbs rifUtt, f iXltv, IhXm^. — («) To show how words are employed in the
•entenoe ; as in cases of anastrophe, and whoe the accent is retained by pro*
clitics and enclitics (§§ 730-732).
4. Upon some of the minute points of accentuation, authorities and critics
differ. But this only ftimishes another point of analogy between the Greek
accent and our own. Indeed, there is no subject, either in grammar or in any
other science^ upon all the minutiie <^ which there is a perfect oneness of
opinion.
^733* In accentuation, a long vowel or diphthong in the
ultimoy and oflen in the penalty is regarded as forming two
syllables (§§ 29. ix, 676). — We may say, in such cases, that
the vowel or syllable forms two accentiial places.
Remark. In accentuation, the inflection-endings m and m
are not treated as long vowels, except in the Optatioe (cf.
Ml)
Digitized
by Google
4SIK^ ACCBKT. [book IT.
Note. This treatment of final «i and m as short vowels appears not to haw
prevailed in the earliest form of the langoagcf, nor in the Doric dialect, which
• was characterized by its closer adherence to old usage (§ 735. a). In the
Opt, it seems not to have prevailed from the natural dwelling of the voioa
upon the termination (§ 177). Traces of the old usage appear hi the i
nation of so many Inf. forms upon the penult (§ 746) ; although tbe <
flex accent is not here excluded (cf. 726. R.).
§ 734* I. Accentual places are counted according to the fbllowipg
method. The ultima is counted as the 1st place, if its voied is shortj but as
the 1st and 2d places, if its vowel ia long, U the ultima forms two places, the
pmuU forms, of course, the 3d place, and completes the number which is al-
lowed. If, on the other hand, the ultima forms only a single place, then the
penult forms the 2d place ; and, besides this, if its votod is long, it aboayn
forms in dissjfllablei, and aometimet forms in polysyUablet, the 3d place also. If
the ultima and the penult form but two places, then the antepenult is the 3d
place. In the following words, the numbos denote the accentual places ;
1 81 3 21 2 1 3 81 S2 I S8 I S SI
&ig, naig^ Xoyov, XoyoQ^ nXoviov, nXovrog^ nXovroi^ n^Qamnotq%

ngoaianoyy kKOvaatg^ kxovaa^ kxovaai^ JtoXtfiovg^ noXffiog, noXiftoi.
2. An ascending line ( ' ) was adopted by the Greek grammarians as the
mark of an accented place, and a descending line ( ' ) as the mark of an nn-
•ocented place. A syllable in which an accented was followed by an miao-
cented place received, of course,. a double mark ('^). The words above, in
which the accentual places are numbered, are all accented as far from the end
as possible. I^ therefore, all their accentual places were distinctly marked,
Ihey would be written thus ;
^sg^ ntug^ Xoyov^ Xoyog^ nXovtov^ nXoinog^ nXovtol^ JtQoacinoigy
ngoatanovy iKovaalgf ixoifoa, kxovaatj noXifiovg^ noXifiog^ noXi/ioh
3. But it is evidently needless, exc^t for grammatical illustration, to mark
miaccented syllables, and when the two marks (' ' ) fall upon the same sylla-
Ue, it is more convenient in writings to unite them into one (^, or, as rounded
for greater ease in writing, " or " ). Dropping, therefore, the marks over
the unaccented syllables, and uniting the double marks, we write thus ;
S^ig^ naig^ Xoyov^ Xoyog^ nXovtov^ nXovrog^ nXovtoi^ 9r^oae#3voi^,
TtQoaoinoy^ ixovaaig^ kxovaa^ kxovaai^ noXifiovg^ noXtfiog^ noXtfiot.

^ T26. To the principles of Greek accentuation which
have now been given, may be referred, almost throughout, the
following general laws of accent and accentual changes.
I. General Laws of Accent.
1. One accent, and only one^ belongs to each word.
Hence rv» and Siitt compomided, become ^vvtiot • rvv and ^i^m, ru/*^i^tt, -^
For apparent exceptions, see §§ 731, 732.
2. The accent never falls upon any syllable before the ante-
penult
Hence Jm^«, fiiyttt become, in the Gen., Mfietr^tt fttyiiit,
3. The antepenult can receive only the acute accent, and can
receive this only when the ultima is short.
Hence 0«X«rri^ M^ttirttj «'f«r«Mr«y, become, in the Gen., B^aXm^ftit, M^m*
«••«, ir^«r««'«v. — For ^«X«rr«<, «»/^««'m, see ^ 723. R.
NoTEa «. If the ultima is long merely by position, still the antepenult
recdves no accent ; hence i^tCHxal («), though l^iCttX^t,
fi. In accentuation, i before m in the terminations of the Gen. and of the
Attic Dec IL is not regarded as forming a distinct syllable (§§ 35, 95. 3. «,
98, 1 1 6. «, )) ; hence, *Ar^ii)i*r, «'«Xi*rr, viXiiv • ikvatyimt. So, also, with an
intervening liquid, m adjectives compounded of yiXit and »i^a,$ (§ 136. 1) ;
aa, piXiy%X»tt, &K%^»tt • and, according to the same analogy, the compound ad-
verbs tnwmXmiy v^iwmXtu*
4. The eircun^lex never falls upon any syllable that is no'i
long by nature.
Hence fim, fiZt, wmu become, in the Nom. pi., ^i%tt /im Q}\ irmvrtf («).
5. The penult can receive the circumflex only when the uZ-
iima is short by nature.
Hence /£mV«, *n^»<i 9u»69, become, in the Gen., /itums, yitr«v, ^ux»u, — For
fUvrmt, ySrM, see § 723. R.
Remark. In the old language and in the Por. (cf. § 723. N.), a final

the drciimfl«z upon the penult appears not to hare been deemed quite ac
great a remove from the end of the word liftthe acate upon the antepenult
.(cf. 723. N.). Even after the dropping of r m the 3d Pets. pi. of verba
§ 181. 2), Boma forms of the Doric retained the old accentuation; as, ly^

nature and accented^ it must be circumjlexed.

II. Accentual Changes.
§ T2T. The accent is subject to the following changes :
— (a) The acute may be changed to the circumflex; as, Otjg^
&^Qff, — (b) The circumflex may be changed to the acute ; as,
ftovaa^ fjiovafjg. — (c) The acute may be softened upon the uttt-
ma (& 729). — {d) The accent may be throvm hacky that is,
transferred to a preceding syllable ; as, ygaqxa, tyqatpov. —
{e) The accent may be brought forward^ that is, transferred
to a succeeding syllable; as, ^17^, ^i^^oV — {/) The accent
may be thrown upon the ^preceding word ; as, ow/ua nov (^ 732).
— {g) The accent may be omitted ; as, tatvio ' naq iftol '
0 rovs' (piXta as (§§ 728. b, c, 731, 732).
§ T28« Changes in the accent arise, principally, from,
I.) The ADDITION or loss of syllables ; as, Svofia^ ovoftarog
(^ 726. 2) ; ^/tttco, ^mxm (^ 288) ; novspog^ novq>6xtgog (^ 156) ;
nottegog, ncngog (§ 741). See III. c.
II.) Change in the quantity of vowels. See § 726. 3-6.
m.) Contraction, crasis, or apostrophe, as follows.
a. Contraction. An acute syllable, folUnoed by a grave,
is contracted with it into a circumflexed (§§ 724. 3, 725) ; other-
wise the accent is not affected by contraction, except as the
general laws may require ; as, voog vovg^ tifiam tijum * t/^o*
t/juix, TiftaolfiTiv jifnafifiv ' kataorog karmTog (§ 726. 6).
Remabk. Some contract forms are accented as though made by inflectioii
without contraction ; or fall into the analogy of other words. Thus,
1.) In contracts of Dec U., — (a) The accent remains throughout upon the
same syllable as in the theme ; as, w't^iVXMf , «'f^<«'XMv, contr. «'t^/«'X«vf, «^i.
irktv Gen. ay^^M (^ 17). — (b) The Nom. dual, if accented upon the ulti-
ma, is always oxytone ; as, »«, Urt^ (^ 9). — (c) Except in the Nom. dual,
all simple contracts in .avf or .«&» are perispome ; as, ;^^vri«f xt^^*^ (K 1S)»
xAntv Mavtvf, basket, — (d) In oxytones of the Attic Dec., die Gen. sing, hat
the acute ; which ma^' be explained by supposing one • to have been dropped
from the original form (cf. § 243. 2) ; thus, Htit (% 9), G. nm« (§ 86), nU;
bjr contraction n^, vui (§ 98. fi).

§744.
3.) The oontcaot Gen. pL of r^tn^ns (i 14), avra^Kns, and compounds in
^ns is paroxytone ; as, r^tv^utt r(/«^*>».
4.) The 8ubj, pat$. of verbs in -/m, and of Perfects used in the sense of the
Pres., is often accented as though uncontracted ; thus,- ri/Ar/Mu, r/Vji, rihrai •
^ii»0fuu • M»r»ttuu, ia.%fi,ttftuM (§ 234). And, on the other hand, the Opt,
pa$$. of these verbs is accented by many as though etmtnuted ; thi^S ritfiT*^
Kora. In diarem, or the resolntioa of « diphthong, a oucomflexed ^jU*-
"bU is resolved into an aeute and a grave ; as 90$$ w»tt.
b. Crasis. In crasis, the accent of the first word is omitted*
The accent of the second remains wi^ut change, except as
required by ^ 726. 6 ; as, tamo, for to avro * TaiUa, for xa SiUM
(yet some write raUa).
c. Apostrophe. When an accented syllable is elided^ the
accent is thrown back upon the penult, as acute ; thus, d$lv*
BJifji for dsiva BTtij • iro'iU* ma&ov {noXla). — Except in preposi-
tions, and ^6 particles aUd, fifidiy ovdi, and the poeUc lidi and
ids ' as, na^* ifiol, all' fym,
§ 799* IV*) Tbe connbgtion of words in discourse, as
follows.
A. Grave AccENt. Oiytones, followed by other wordtf in
closely connected discourse, soften their tone, hnd are thefl
it\arked with the grave accent (§ 14) ; as, 4nl tit nala xul ajra^d,
ExcsFTiON. The interrogative rigj and words followed hy enditics (§ 732),
never take the grave ; as, Tit (t » Who art thou f
Notes. «. In the application of this rule editors vary. The best nsag^
liowever, retains the acute accent only in the case of unconnected words or
phrases, and before the period, colon, and snch Otho* pauses as require to be
distinctly maiioed in reading.
fi. The syllable over which the grave accent is written is still rogaided as
meute, although its tone is softened, and the word to which it belongs is still
tenned an oxytone. Syllables strictfy grave are never marked, except for
grammatical illustration, as in § 724.
^ TSO. B. Anastrophe. In prepositions of two short
syllables, the accent is usually thrown hack ui>on the penult,
when they follow the words which they would regularly pre-
eede, or lake the placof of compound verhs^ or a^ used adner'
bially ; as, doinov vnsQ^ for vnig dofifov ' oliamf Siro t, 5W, for
inoli^ag (§ 653) ; niigrif for na^t^ti * mvOf for ard^tri^t

following word, and lose^ in consequence, their proper accent
They are hence called atonies {aiova^ tonel^s)^ or, with more
precision, proclitics {nQo»livt>, to lean forward). They are,
(1.) the aspirated forms of the article, o, ^, ot, orl* (2.) the
adverb ov, not ; (3.) the prepositions u$, into, ir^ in, H^outof;
(4.) the conjunctions el, tf a>(, as.
Nans. The proclitics retain thdr accent when they close a sentence^ or
fbOow the word which they would regnlariy precede. Hence, »i %ivw • but^
wSf yk^ §S' m Stif, but| Bt$t tit * •» nauSvf bat, tuttcSv f^.
^733* D. Enclitics. Some words are attached^ it
accentuation, to the preceding word, and are hence called en-
clitics {fyxXmxog^ from iyxUvfo^ to lean upon). They are, —
(i.) The following oblique cases of the personal pronouns;
1st Pers. (Aov^ (aoI^ /ue * 2d P. aov, aol, ai * 3d P. ov, ol, c * r*r,
oq>lai, aifd. For odier enclitic forms of the personal pronouns,

d. («.) An enclitic is often joined in writing to the preceding word, as if
forming with it but one compound word ; thus, finrtu eviivtTi^ £rT%, (/3.)
This is always the case with the preposition -^i, to ; as, "Oxvfivefh, to Olym-
pus, 'EXivrrMB^i. (y.) In pronouns and adverbs compounded with -M (§ 1 50,
^ 63. IX.), the syllable precedmg -ti always takes the accent, which is acute
or circumflex according to the rule in § 744. (i.) In iy^iy ifi»i, and i^i,
the accent is thrown back when yi w affixed (§ 328. b) ; thus, iyt^yt, tfioty*^
ifny%, (i.) Yah and vrn'tx^ are accented as if formed by the attachment of
enclitics. •
§ 733« Notes. 1. A word, which neither leans upon the foUowL^f
por upon the preceding word, but stands, as it were, erect, is called, in distil «-
tion fVom the proclitics and enclitics, an orthatone {i^timt^ erect in tone),
2. Both proclitics and enclitics are more abundant in English than in Greek,
and these classes of words furnish another strong antilogy between the Greek
and the English accent (§ 722. 1). The words in English which are used
iu translating the Gredc procHtics and enclitics are themselyes, for the most
part, either proclitic or enclitic. Thus, in the sentence, Give me the book (pro-
nounced Girnne thdkkik), the pronoun me is encUtic, and the article the^ pro-
clitic In the sentence, If John *s in the house, donU tell him a word of this,
the words If in, the, a, and of are proclitics, and the words w, not, and him,
enclitics.
III. Determination of Accented Syllable.
^ y84« General Principle. In eXch word, the accent
belongs to that syllable upon tokieh the attention is most strong*
ly Jwtd.
NoTB. I^ Arom the general laws of aooentuation> this tyU. cannot receiTfe
the accent, it draws it as near to itself as possible.
RmfARKii. 1. In the origin of hmguage, the attention is absorbed by the
greater distinctlona of thought ; but, as these become familiar to the mind, it
passes to the lees, and then to those that are still subordinate. Hence, in the
progress of a language, its accent is subject to change, as well as the forms oi
its words, its vocabulary, and its constructions. In the Greek, as in other
langnagea, the accent was originally confined to the syllables containing the
essential ideas of words, i. e. to their radical syUables (see §§ 83, 171). But,
in proportion as these became familiar, there was a tendency to throw the
accent upon those syllables by which these ideas were modified, either through
inflection, derivation, or composition. Thb tendency would of course vary
greatly in diflerent classes and forms of words. It would naturally be the
strongest where the root was the most familiar ; or where the formative part
was the most significant or characteristic. On the other hand, any strength-
ening of the radical, or weakening of the formative part, would have a ten-
dency to produce a contrary effect. In illustration of these tendencies (which
of course are subject to the general laws of accent), it will be observed, that,
— (a) In neuter nouns, the affix, from its inferior importance, almost never
attracU the accent (§§ 737. t, 738. d). — [b) In demonstrative pronouns, the
deictic -^i always draws the accent to the preceding syllable (§ 732. y), and
the still stronger -< always Ukes it upon itself (§ 150. y), — (c) In verba,
the aooeat is always attracted by the augment, while it can never pass beyond
K (S 748. 4).— (<i) The okl weak root of the 2d Aor. (§ 257. 1) yields the ao-

eent to the affix in sereral cases irbere the strengtheAed root of Uie Vna re-
tains it (§ 746 - 748). — («) In derivative adjectives, those endhigs whi<^ ex
press most strongly character or relation attract the accent (§§ 737 — 739).-^
(/) In composition, the accent is usually attracted by that word which definef
the other, and thus gives its special character to the compound (§§ 323, 739\
In the active compound verbals, the idea of th^ action is more prominent th^oi
in the pusnve ; and hence appears to have arisen the distinction in § 739. 6.
^ § 73«i* 2. That the different dialects should have often varied ia
accent will occasion no surprise in those who have compared the prononciatioo
of our own language in different parts of its native isk. That these differaioes
are often neglected in our copies of the classics has arisen from the late period
at which the marks of accent were introduced (§ 22. »), and the tendency at
that time to conform every thing to the Attic standard (§ 4). From the
testimony of the old grammarians we learn, that, — (a) The Doric was char-
acterized by its adherence to geno^ rules and dd usage (§ § 723. N., 726.
R.). — (6) The Lesbian JEolic was characterized by its tendency to throw
the accent as far back as possible. In words of more than one syllable, it is
said to have admitted the accent upon the ultima in prepositions and oonjuuo-
tions only. — (c) The Attic (to which the Ionic appears to have more neariy
approached) was characterized by an expressive variety of accent, and a
greater incUnation to mark the minuter shades of thought and species of re-
lation.

-^<, -^t (§§ 89-91, 320), follow the general rule, unless a short vowel pre-

C. Accent in Conjugation.
^ 746* Verbs are accented as far back as the general
laws permit, with the following exceptions (see §§ 723. N^
734. c, d),
1. These forms are aeoented upon the penuit; — (a) AH InJhUihm fit
••«4 ; as, fiiCtvXivmUtu, ^vkiviiifmif W«mi, i#r«v«< (^ 48). Except dialectio
'orms in -^smm (§ 250). — (b) The Inf, of the 1<< Aor. act, and 2d Aor,
mid, ; as, ^«vXivr«i, Xtm-i^mi (^ 37). — (e) The Perf. pass. In/, and Part.%
as, fiiCttfkiMmtf fitC»»Xi»fii90t' — Except a few preteritwe partieiple» ; as, Kfi*'
9f (^ 59). So MtifU9»Sf from xir^Mu (§ 232 ), which otherwise is accented as
an uncontracted Perf. ; thns, $tarm»itftMt, xmrtiMl^Uu In a few Epic forms,
the retraction of the accent extends even to the Inf. ; as, Jkfuixn^mt T. 33.5,
inutxfifiU9f £. 24 (§ 286). — (d) All dialectic uifinitives in -/«» (§ 250).
§747* 2. These forms are oxttokb ; — (a) Partidpiu in -t, G, -rt,
except in the Iff Aor. act. ; as, /3iC«tfXivjMir, fi«vXtu4tifi Urmt, 0^df • but,
/3«vXitfr«r. — (b) The 2d Aor, act. part,; as, Xtvtiv, ^if. — (e) The 2a
Aor, imperat, formtf f/«^ say, ixii, come, tvfij Jbid, and, in strict Attic, «)•»

V 7 4 8* 3. Tliese forms are pertsfomb ; — (a) The 2d Aor, inf. m
M ; as, Xtmisf. — (b) The 2d Per». tmg. of the 2d Aor, mid, imp, ; as, Xi»
wwy )«v (^ 51 ). Except in eompomuU of more than two syllables from verbs
in •^; as, kTS^»v bat vr^tiw. Some exceptions also occnr in compound
and even in simple verbs in .*r.
4. The accent of a verb hi ooBrposmoN can never be thrown farther back
than the augment (§ 734. c), or farther than the tone syllable of the word
prefixed; thus, «'«f/^M (wat^i, Ix^t h 300), «'«(i/;^«y, «'a(ir;^«y, va^A^x***
§ T49« Remarks. «. In those forms in which the accent of tho
Perf. and 2 Aor. difiers from that of the Pres., a want of uniformity has some-
times arisen from different views m regard to their etymology. Thus, 2 Aor.
fbrms are sometimes accented as Pros. ; as, Inf. a/*v»ei^uv, r;^i^ii», Pt, r;^i/*rv
(§ 299) \ w(m0%y v^m, vr^U^iat (^ 49).
/S. MomrnfttabUi long by nature, except ParHeipiUe, are generally
/ItfMf ; thus, iT, h^ i, £f (^ 55) ; r^«, r^iTv, r;^»» (§ 300).

[The works of Xenophon ars commonly cited without naming the author, wmi tfat
Anabasis without even naming the work (by simply ftving the book, chapter, and aso-
tion ; thus, W. 3. 17). The Iliad and Odyssey are commonly cited by givmg simply the

233 ; i6. 305, for Od. ii. 305). In Homer, the references are made to the verses of Woif;
in Heslod, to those of Gaisford ; in Pindar, to those of Heyne ; in the Dramatic Poets, to
those of Dindorf; and in the Pastoral Poets, to those of Kiessling. In HerodMus, Uni-
cydides, X«iophon, Diodorus Siculus, Dio Caasiua, and Pausanias, they are made to
hooks and chapters ; and also, in Xenopbon, to the sections of the usual nM>re minute
division as given by Schneider. Dindorf, Sec fn Demosthenes, theyare made to the pases
and lines oTBeiske ; in the other Orators and in Plato (including Timtfus Loerus) to the
pages and lines or division-letters of Stephens ; In Strabo to the pages, sad in Atheoarai
to the pages and division-letters, of CasauboQ. The fragments of Alccus, Sappho, Co*
rihna, Epicharmus, and SophrOn are numbered according to Ahrens, with the numbttt

QRAMBIAS OP THE GREEK LANQVkGE, BT A. CROSBY, *a*»
'* AccompUsbed Zbitophom I thy truth hath aboim
A brother's glory sacred as thy own.
O rich in all the blended gifts that grace
MInenra's darling sons of Attic race I
The Sage's olire, the Historian's palm,
The Victor's laurel, all thy name embalm I
Thy simile diction, free from glaring art.
With sweet allurement steals upon the heart ;
Pure as the rill, Chat Nature's hand r^nes,
A cloudless mirror of thy soul it shines.
Thine was the praise, bright models to aflbid
To CiBSAR's riral pen, and riral sword :
Blest, had Ambition not destroyed his c
Tb Uw mild lustre of thy purer ftmel"
