What are the voices of Greek verbs? | Greek verbs may be in any of three voices: active, middle and passive. |
How is the active voice used? | The active voice is used to indicate the subject is performing the action. |
How is the passive voice used? | The passive voice is used to indicate the subject is receiving the action. |
What endings are used in the present tense? | The present tense uses primary endings, either active or middle/passive. |
How is the middle voice used? | The middle voice represents the subject as acting in some way that concerns itself or as acting upon something that belongs to itself. |
How are the present middle and passive indicative distinguished? | The present middle and passive indicative are identical in formation. Context will show whether the author intends the verb to be middle or passive. |
What is a deponent verb? | A deponent verb appears only in the middle or passive voice but has essentially active meaning. |
How is ὑπό used with the genitive case? | The preposition ὑπό with the genitive expresses the agent, principally with a passive voice verb. |
What is a dative of means? | The dative without any preposition sometimes expresses means or instrument. |
What is a compound verb? | In Greek a compound verb is a verb with a prefixed preposition. The compound verb is frequently accompanied by a prepositional phrase using the same preposition found in the compound verb. |
Do all verbs take direct objects in the accusative case? | In Greek many verbs take the genitive case or the dative case to complete their meaning. Not all direct obects are accusative. |
