Lesson XII - Lets review what weve learnt
robertus omnibus salutem dicit (what is the greek for this?)
and so he ordered to review the forms...
1 Are the three verb forms a safeguide to all other forms? or shall i truly have to master those rules, those long rules full of exceptions?
2 of the verb ?νδάνω the form ἔαδον (page 61 of the pdf) is for the imperfect given, however in lesson 10 (page 58 of the pdf) the form ἥνδανε, which one is the true?
3 why is ου behaving as a diphtong in the declensions, ie, forbidin' the ^ to appear as in νο?σους, if it sounds as a vowel.
4 as the dative masculine of ἑκεῖνος ?κεῖνῳ is given, whereas it should be ?κείνῳ by the rules, is this a ortographical mistake or it falls into the exceptions (page 307 of the pdf)
5 the prepostions ἀνά ?ς ?ν have, like others, alternate forms ἀν εἰς ?νί, but unlike others, it is not told how they are to occur -.- when then?
***
6 how do i travel through the pdf without having to scroll for minutes (ya, there are the booknmarks, but they dont link to all the sections in the book, how can i do my own bookmarks)
vale! (what is the greek for this?)

A number of verbs have something called a second aorist, which uses the imperfect (secondary) endings instead of the characteristic alpha. I don't know that it's entirely predictable when this is happens -- often I think it's when the aorist uses a stem which is shorter than the present (as some verbs in nu, for example).
IPHIGENIE: Kann uns zum Vaterland die Fremde werden?
ARKAS: Und dir ist fremd das Vaterland geworden.
IPHIGENIE: Das ist's, warum mein blutend Herz nicht heilt.
(Goethe, Iphigenie auf Tauris)

D'oh! Yes, both of them.modus.irrealis wrote:Not always true for ου either, right? In fact, I'm thinking the ου in the accusative ending -ους here was never a diphthong.
