Copyright , Scott Gray12 Demonstrative Pronoun Usage Usually in predicate position when modifying noun; article is always present with noun ou[toj o9 dou=loj agaqo/j e0stin. This slave is good. Attributive demonstrative indicates contempt
Copyright , Scott Gray13 More on Attributive Position The good word o9 a0gaqo\j lo/goj o9 a0gaqo\j o9 lo/goj The key to recognizing the attributive position: the adjective immediately follows the definite article
Copyright , Scott Gray14 More on Predicate Position In Greek the linking verb is often omitted when the adjective is nominative and is in the predicate position (not immediately following the definite article) The word is good o9 lo/goj a0gaqo\j a0gaqo\j o9 lo/goj
Copyright , Scott Gray15 Demonstrative Pronoun Usage cont. When used alone, the demonstrative pronoun implies a noun of the appropriate gender ou[toj h0ga/rase ploi=on. This man bought a boat.
Copyright , Scott Gray16 Prepositions with two cases Important: prepositions are governed by the cases, not (as your text has) vice versa: The noun controls the preposition The 8 case system handles prepositions quite nicely; the text is wrong when saying basic case meaning isn’t adhered to
Copyright , Scott Gray17 Making Adverbs We do this in English: swift becomes swiftly To do the same in Greek, change the genitive masculine plural form’s final n to a j Example: tuflwn becomes tuflwj
Copyright , Scott Gray18 Neuter Plural Subjects Occasionally, a singular verb will take a neuter plural subject ta\ ploi=a e0n ta=| kw/mh| e0sti/n. The boats are in the village.
Copyright , Scott Gray19 Article Use with Abstractions Greek will often include the article with concepts or abstractions – in English we leave the article out h9 a0ga/ph sw/|zei h9ma=j. Love saves us.
