We will no longer be reviewing the “Noun System” including adjectives, pronouns, articles, etc. so be sure you know the Master Noun Chart backwards and forwards… (i.e. Chapter 10)

At this point you should know 180 vocabulary words (each of which I have pronounced in these videos on this web-site).

As we move into verbs, we will be building the Master Verb Chart (see page 354 in your Grammar BBG).

Chapter 16 is the first line of the chart, how the Present Active Indicative verb is formed.

Present Tense Stem + Connecting vowel (ο/ε) + Primary Active Endings (-ω -εις -ει -ομεν -ετε -ουσι)

There are 4 different endings: Primary and Secondary, Active and Passive, we’ve learned the Primary Active.

19 more lines to go in building out the Master Verb Chart (p. 354) – this is basically next semester.

The Relative Pronoun

“Who” “Which” “That”

(If you know the Noun/Adj. endings, you know the relative pronoun)

Demonstratives “This” & “That”

Chapter 11 is all about 1st and 2nd Person Personal pronouns

Chapter 12 is the 3rd Person Personal pronoun

Can recognize patterns (especially in the 3rd Person ἀυτός)

You need to know the charts including translations for these, they are very very common.

This is now all the Noun endings!

(Now you can go back and better understand the “Noun Ending Song” on my Chapter 9 Blog Post)

As always, vocabulary! I cannot stress enough the importance of knowing the vocabulary…

Also, take note that Adjectives always agree with the Noun they modify.

Adjectives follow different Declension patterns in the Mas. – Fem. – Neut. (2-1-2, 3-1-3, 2-2, 1-1)

A good example of a 3-1-3 pattern Adjective is πᾶς (see BBG Chapter 10)

This makes the Article (ὁ ἡ τό) all the more helpful. The Article, Adjective, and Noun will always agree.
