Greek in a Nutshell

Chapter 2

Chapter 23,298 wordsPublic domain

§ 72. "Apposition" occurs as in English.

§ 73. Adjectives agree with their nouns in gender, number, and case.

§ 74. The noun is often understood, especially if neut., ("things.")

§ 75. Sometimes a relative is "attracted" into the case of the omitted antecedent.

§ 76. A verb agrees with its subject nominative in number and person.

§ 77. The case of the subject of the Infin. depends upon other relations.

§ 78. Neuters plur. generally have a sing. verb.

GOVERNMENT.

§ 79. Any word may govern another (or others) which in sense is _dependent_ upon it in the case appropriate for expressing such relation either with or without a preposition.

| >>>---|-----> | Genitive. Dative. Accusative.

§ 80. GENITIVE, denoting _origin_, answering to _Whence?_ and expressed by _from_.

§ 81. "_Local_," involving _external_ relations of space, either in a literal or a figurative sense. This includes actual _motion_ from an object, generally with a preposition, (ἀπό ἐκ παρά;) _separation_ from it, usually with verbs compounded with a preposition; and _commencement_.

§ 82. "_Causal_," denoting a more _internal_ relation, as if the outgoing of some agency or property, as follows:--

§ 83. _Active_, either direct, inferential, or metaphysical. This includes relations of source, (e.g., derivation, [commonly with ἐκ, sometimes ἀπό, direct authorship with ὐπό,] possession, property, [often with an Infin.]) _partitive_ use, (e.g., a class, material, partial relations,) and the Gen. of time, (in the _course_ of which,) especially the "Gen. absolute," with a Participle, as affording occasion.

§ 84. _Passive_, that is, indirect, the act being for the sake of the Gen. This includes verbs implying a _mental operation_, adjectives, and other words denoting _skill_, and the Gen. of _crime_ or _purpose_, (the last mostly an Infin. with the article.)

§ 85. _Mutual_, e.g., _comparison_ and _price_ or _penalty_.

§ 86. The "attributive Gen." is a comprehensive relation, arising under several of the above heads, between two nouns designating _different_ objects, which may be thus expressed: _When two nouns are connected with each other, that one which completes the idea of the other and defines it more fully is put in the Gen._

§ 87. DATIVE, denoting _position_, answering to _Where?_ and expressed by _at_.

§ 88. "_Local_," involving the more palpable relations of position. This includes the place, (at, by, near, in the midst of; generally with ἐν, ἐπί, παρά, etc.,) _association, accompaniment,_ (frequently with σύν,) and the _time_ (as a date) or _circumstances_ of a transaction.

§ 89. "_Causal_," denoting the object _upon which_ the act or state appears, thus conceived as sharing in producing it, as follows:--

§ 90. _Personal_, either actually or so imagined. This includes words expressing a _correlative_ idea, as community, (in varied relations,) likeness, possession, agency, reference, etc.

§ 91. _Instrumental_, as the mediate cause, e.g., the ground or reason, the means, the instrument, manner, and the measure of excess or deficiency.

§ 92. In comprehensive phrase the "attributive Dat." expresses many indirect relations of an object _to_ or _for_ which an act is performed or a condition sustained.

§ 93. ACCUSATIVE, denoting _direction_, answering to _Whither?_ and expressed by _toward_.

§ 94. "_Local_" involving the boundary, place, or object of motion, especially with εἰς.

§ 95. "_Causal_," involving an influence, change, or result, as impressed upon the object, as follows:--

§ 96. The _effect_, either the thing effected, an attribute of the effect, or the effect intended.

§ 97. The _object acted upon_, e.g., with directly transitive verbs, those expressing a good or bad influence, patience, swearing, sometimes a mental affection, etc.; also the _space_ or _way_ after a verb of motion; the time, (_throughout_ which,) measure, and weight; and finally ("Attributive Accusative") with any verb or adj. (sometimes other words) to define its application more closely, especially if of kindred signification.

ORDER OF WORDS IN A SENTENCE.

§ 98. This is usually not, as in English, that of _grammatical_ dependence, but rather the order of _thought_; important or emphatic words come first, after the connecting particles; prepositions and the article precede their nouns; and qualifying terms are grouped in a harmonious balance around the principal ones.

φως25 ἐν1 τῇ28 σκοτίᾳ29 φαίνει,30 καὶ6 ἡ23 σκοτία31 light in the darkness shines, and the darkness

αὐτὸ32 οὐ33 κατέλαβεν.34 it not admitted.

DIRECTIONS.--Spell the Greek, giving the _English_ equivalents of the consonants, (as in § 1,) and the exact _phonetic_ value or sound of the vowels. Call the rough breathing _h_. Be careful to put the spoken _accent_ where it is written. Continue this practice through all the passages given in the following lessons, until the words can be pronounced readily and accurately. Familiarize yourself with the forms of the letters by _writing_ them. Let the pupil do this while learning the foregoing grammatical lessons, and after the recitation of each of them let the teacher direct attention, while the passage at the head of the reading lessons is pronounced, to the examples illustrating each point, as they occur--by way of paradigm.
