Polybius, Histories, book 10, excerpt from chapter 12: “τῆς δὲ διὰ τῶν βοηθούντων ἐπικουρίας οὐχ ὁμοίας ὑπαρχούσης διὰ τὸ τοῖς μὲν Καρχηδονίοις διὰ μιᾶς πύλης καὶ σχεδὸν ἀπὸ δυεῖν σταδίοιν γίνεσθαι τὴν παρουσίαν, τοῖς δὲ Ῥωμαίοις ἐκ χειρὸς καὶ κατὰ πολὺν τόπον, ἄνισος ἦν ἡ μάχη παρὰ ταύτην τὴν αἰτίαν.”
“But as the assistance sent to either side was not equal, the Carthaginians arriving through a single gate and from a distance of nearly two stades and the Romans from close by and from several points, the battle for this reason was an unequal one.”
I quote the above text in some material which I am writing. If I want to highlight the English words “the Carthaginians” in the English translation and the corresponding Greek words in the Greek text, should I include both “τὸ” and “τοῖς” or only “τοῖς” in the highlighted Greek segment paralleled with the English segment?
Is the word Καρχηδονίοις modified by the two articles or only by one?
