Hi all! I have recently come across this sentence in an exercise:
They have ordered us to wait in the harbor all day.
I am wondering how to structure this correctly in terms of syntax? Ι have it structured like this right now but I am sure this is not correct.
ἔτασσον ἡμῖν ἐν τῷ λιμένι μενειν ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν.
They have ordered - ἔταξαν aorist
ἔταξαν ἡμῖν ἐν τῷ λιμένι μενειν ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν.
or better:
ἔταξαν ἡμῖν μενειν ἐν τῷ λιμένι ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν.
Or maybe in another way. You can rearrange the words depending on what you want to emphasize. My mother tongue is similar to Greek in this respect - we also rearrange words as we like
