When “tosoutos…wste” is used in a sentence, is “tosoutos” typically used predicately or attributively.
For example:
o( dh=mov a0pe/kteinen a0/ndra tosou=ton w9/ste kai/ oi9 qeoi/ qrhnou=si qa/naton au0tou=
In this sentence, would “tosouton” be predicative or attributive?

attributive: such a great man, or a man so great, or a man who was so great (translated with a relative clause, but still attributive).
So, in such a sentence, is the consecutive clause expressing the result of the attribute?

I would say so. The gods only care because he is ‘tosoutos’.
