Digitized by Microsoft® PREFACE. This Short Grammar of Classical Greek is an adaptation of the Kurzgefasste Griechische Schulgrammatik of Dr. Adolf Kaegi, Professor in Zurich University, Switzerland. It will be accompanied by an English edition of the Exercise Books of the same author. The reasons that seem to justify an attempt at making Prof. Kaegi's books accessible to English-speaking students of Greek are of a threefold nature: (1) The peculiar character of Kaegi's Grammar and Exercise Books, (2) the fact that both are based upon the same method of strict criticism, and (3) their favor- able reception throughout Europe. 1. It was in the year 1884 that Prof. Kaegi published his Griech. Schulgram- matik. Some forty Greek grammars were then in use at the Gymnasia of German speaking countries, and the author could scarcely venture to add a new one, unless he was convinced that the characteristic features of his own book would justify its appearance and win for it a prominent place among the books that served a similar purpose. What then are the merits of Kaegi's School Grammar ? Of late years, but especially since the issue of the Lehrplane filr die hoheren Schulen Preussens, it was deemed necessary by men of authority on school matters to reduce the amount of grammar that had to be mastered during the college course by the students of Greek. Accordingly, there soon appeared in Germany a num- ber of grammars which, especially in their etymological parts, discarded much of what was formerly required. The authors of these new text-books were guided by the correct principle that " it is useless and a loss of time to burden the mind of the young student with material he never or seldom meets with in the authors read at college." Thus a considerable advance was made in the line of short school grammars. In many cases, however, the intended reduction was not methodical. It was not always based on an accurate knowledge of what frequently occurred in school authors and thus became necessary, or what but rarely occurred and was in conse- quence dispensable, in a school grammar. On the contrary, a thorough examina- tion convinced Prof. Kaegi that much had been dropped in a merely eclectic manner, because it seemed superfluous to the authors of these books. Against such eclecticism Prof. Kaegi made a resolute stand. In order to find a reliable basis for his own School Grammar, in which he in- tended to omit all the useless ballast of rare forms, exceptions, finesses, etc., the author went over the whole range of classical literature as far as it came within the reading-scope of German Gymnasia, with the avowed purpose of preparing upon the above principle a school grammar and sifting the matter to be incor- porated into it. Digitized by l^icrosoft® iv PREFACE. This long protracted labor put a vast amount of grammatical matter at the disposal of the author, and as he correctly thought that the teaching of grammar must be subservient to, and determined by, the reading-matter, he either omitted all the peculiarities and irregularities which are seldom met with in classical authors, or marked them by small print, or put them in special notes or chapters for reference. Thus it is that Kaegi's Schulgrammatik shared on the one hand from its very first appearance the advantage of brevity with other grammars, and on the other far surpassed them, because his system of reducing the grammar was not at all eclectic, but strictly methodical. Such is a brief sketch of the history of the Schulgrammatik. ■ In the first edition of this book the author said : " I wish to lay particular stress on this point, that the reduction of the matter might be carried much further, if the circle of classical school authors were drawn still closer than I have purposely done. It would be most useful, especially for a concentration of the teaching of Greek, in our schools, if a list of the Standard School Authors (em Canon der Schulautoren) were fixed upon by competent men." The wished-for list appeared in the Lehrplcine for the Secondary Schools of Prussia in January, 1892. These new regulations prescribe as obligatory the reading of : — Xenophon's Anabasis, Hellenica, Memorabilia. Plato and Thucydides. Demosthenes' Olynthiacs and Philippics. Herodotus, Homer, and Sophocles. To these is usually added Lysias. The time had therefore come for Prof. Kaegi to take a step further, and as the result of his studies he offered in October, 1892, the first edition of the Kurzge- fasste Griech. Schulgrammatik. In this Short Grammar of Classical Greek the author remained faithful to his principle that the study of grammar is but to aid the reading of Greek. Accordingly, all the peculiarities and irregularities that are only occasionally met with in the prescribed authors were either dropped or placed for reference in special chapters (60 and 113). 2. Those who appreciate Prof. Kaegi's grammatical methods will readily admit that an English edition of his Exercise Books was equally advisable. Authors of grammars sometimes fail to publish corresponding readers. Teachers must consequently use grammars and exercise books of different authors. The disadvantages of such an expedient stand to reason : grammars and readers, not written to aid each other, will in many particulars pursue different ends. For instance, the exercise book will contain words, forms, and rules which are not learned in the grammar, or the latter will insist upon rules for the practice of which the former fails to furnish suitable reading-matter. We are spared all these inconveniences in the present case; for besides his Grammar, we are indebted to Prof. Kaegi for two Exercise Books, which have been carefully worked out upon the same method of criticism that characterizes his Gram- mar. Indeed, they are so perfectly based upon the latter, that they furnish abun- dant material, both in unconnected sentences and in narratives, for the practice of such words only as are current in the same School Authors from which the mate- rial was taken for his Grammar, as well as of such rules only as must be perfectly Digitized by Microsoft® PKKFACE. V familiar to the student who wishes to read with ease the classical authors specified in the list of the Standard School Authors. In view of these characteristic features of Kaegi's Grammar and Readers, it is hoped that they will prove a help for many a beginner in the study of Greek at the High Schools, Academies, and the High School (or Academical) Departments of Colleges in this country. 3. A word remains to be said on the extraordinary success of the books of Prof. Kaegi. The Griechische Schulgrammatik made its first appearance in 1884. It has since passed through the second, third, fourth, and fifth editions in the years 1889, 1892, 1896, and 1900 respectively. Soon after the publication there appeared a Bohemian, a Russian, a French, and a Polish edition. The Short Grammar was received still more favorably. It first appeared in October, 1892, then in March, 1894, next in April of the same year, again in January and April, 1895, the sixth edition came out in January, 1896, the seventh in January, 1897, the eighth in January, 1898, the ninth in January, 1899, the tenth in January, 1900, the eleventh in January, 1901, the tweKth in January, 1902 ; in a word, within only ten years it has gone through twelve editions, the last of which comprised eight thousand copies. Nor should it be overlooked that Kaegi's Grammar appeared at a time when, to a superficial observer, there seemed little call for a new Greek grammar in Germany. The Exercise Books have met with a similar success : within ten years Exer- cise Book I has been published six times. Exercise Book II has, within seven years, passed through five editions. 4. The present Short Grammar is not a mere translation, but to some extent an adaptation of Kaegi's Grammar, inasmuch as the translator has been forced in more than one chapter to depart from the German original, in order to answer the requirements of idiomatic English. Besides several minor changes, some paragraphs were dropped, as they seemed superfluous in an English edition, others were inserted where idiomatic considerations seemed to call for an addition to the German text. These changes are nearly all confined to the Syntactical Part of the work. In order to conform to the present usage of this country, all Latin expressions, such as genetivus qualitatis, accusativus cum infinitivo, etc., have been superseded by their English equivalents. In accordance with the latest researches, the translator has followed the author in adopting the spellings avvrto, aTroOvyaKio, /u/xygcrKu), olKTipio, /ieiywyut, //.ei^oi, TetVco (of TtVo)), etc., although they have not as yet found their way into all text- editions. The same applies to Bet, Tret, ei, x^h '/'"• In the present work, the name of Jlrst perfect is extended only to those active perfects that end in the formative syllable -/ca; all others, including aspirated forms, are designated as second perfects. The Tables for Repetition, containing a list of verbs and a summary of the chief rules of Syntax, have been added as an appendix to the Grammar. In the List of Verbs those which are of comparatively rare occurrence are marked by smaller print. They may be omitted when the verbs are learned for the first time, but should not be passed over in the repetition. On the other hand, the regular forms of certain verbs that do not occur in the Standard School Authors have been added from purely practical considerations. The Tables contain, moreover, a column of Syntactical Remarks. They are Digitized by Microsoft® yi PREFACE. arranged alphabetically alongside of, and for the most part in connection with, the list of verbs. They may be used exclusively for reference, or for repetition after the study of Syntax, or they may be studied with the respective verbs. In the latter case, the study of Syntax would be prepared and facilitated. The Chief Rules of Syntax are intended to furnish a brief a,nd concise sketch of the main features of Greek Syntax. They contain those syntactical peculiarities with which a student should be familiar after a few years' study of Greek. Teachers who have little time at their disposal, and indeed all who want to gainj time for reading after the study of etymology, will do well to proceed at once to| the Chief Rules and leave the Syntax of the Grammar (114-207) to those whoj wish to pursue it at greater length. ! The translator has availed himself of such works as he found of assistance in \ his task, notably the Greek-English Lexicon of Liddell and Scott, the Dictionary ' to Xenophon's Anabasis by Professors John W. White and Morris H. Morgan, as well as the grammars of Professors Basil L. Gildersleeve and William W. Goodwin. The treatise on the Ethical Dative was enlarged according to K. W. Krueger's Sprachlehre. All who have kindly assisted the translator in preparing the Grammar are asked to accept this public expression of his gratitude. A fair criticism and the suggestions of those who are engaged in teaching will enable him to make this Short Grammar of Classical Greek as perfect as a text-book for students should be, for whom only the best is good enough, and to make it worthy of its author, Dr. Adolf Kaegi, who has done so much for the advancement of the study of Greek.

Changes of Vowels. — A certain regularity in the change of vowels often appears in words which belong to the same stem, both in regard to the quantity and the quality of the vowel. 1. Change of Quantity {"Weakening or Shortening of Vowels"). — The following examples show a substitution of weaker (short) for stronger (long) sounds, or the reverse : d and a : edo-o), iato. a and t : XetVo), XXireiv. rj and a: rifi'^cro}, rt/tao). i and t: t/jE/?*), rpX^-^. Tj and £ : ttoiiJo-w, Troiioi. ev and i! : tj>€vyv^, d mostly to d: more rarely tO r) ; e always to et : always to ov -. 1 always to I : V always to v : ejjbLav-' iyd) for tj/j,1 iyco. c) in all barytones it remains imchanged : ovre aol ovt ifiol tuvt eXeyov. 18. 1. Crasis (mixture'} is the contraction of the final vowel or diphthong with the initial vowel of the following word.^ Its sign is the coronis ('). The contracted vowel receives an iota subscript, if the last of the vowels to be contracted was an i; thus iy^fiat iov'iyca olfiai, but Kav for Kal dv. 1 Elision, therefore, serves to avoid an hiatus whioli occurs when the final and the initial vowel of two successive words collide. Crasis serves the same purpose, 18. See also 24. Digitized by Microsoft® 10 ON THE SOUNDS. [§§ 19-21 2. Crasis is most frequent with the article, the relative and with Kai and irpo. 6 avijp, ra aWa, a iyd), koI iv, koL av, TrpoeXeyov, becomes dvtjp, raXXa, dyeo, icav, Kav, irpovXeyov. 3. The accent of the first word is generally lost, that of the second determines which syllable is to have the accent after the contraction. 19. Concurrence of Consonants. — Two or more adjoining conso- nants never remain unchanged, but are subject to certain modifica- tions which are made according to definite principles. The second consonant is generally left unaltered and a change is produced only in the first of the two sounds. This euphonic change is especially brought about by assimilation (^change to a like sound), dissimi- lation (^change to a different sound), and elision (^suppression of a sound). Special attention is due to the euphonic changes : a) in the nom. sg. and dat. pi. of the 3d decl., 38 seqq. b) in the third class of verbs (with -Ja in the present), 77, 3. c) in the formation of tenses of mute verbs, 82 ; 83. d) in the final consonants of prepositions in compounds, as in 20. 20. Before the rough breathing a smooth mute is changed to the corresponding rough: thus ovK ovTO<;, k-Tr ov, avr (5y, ett' and 686';, becomes ou^jj; oBto?, a^' ov, av0' av, e97iv, rjuewOr^v, ideX^Ovv, e^dvO-qv, 7redv0ai, eKaOdperfv, KiKaOapdai, (j)d6i, i'xyOrjV, etc. 2. Whenever in several monosyllabic stems the final rough mute is dropped, the initial consonant is changed to the corresponding rough; thus in the stems ra^-.

There are initial and final rough mutes in Tedpd^6ai(ixom. Tpe(pQ}, but •nrpd^Oai from T/oeTro)), Te0d0at and idd(j>6r]v (from Od-Kra)). 22. Initial p is doubled when a short vowel precedes it whether as augment or as reduplication: eppiTTTov, eppi'^a, — eppi^a, eppco/j,ai. Thus also in composition: eiripphrTco, Siappijyvv/M, dppaxTTO's, airopprjTO'!. 23. Rule for Consonantal Termination. — No Greek word can end in any other consonant than v, p, or a (^, i^). Conse- quently, other consonants which by rights should stand at the end of a word must be dropped. Thus iral is for iratS, aSsfia for a-(op,ar. Note. — The two particles ek and ovk are only apparent exceptions; for these proclitics (8) attach themselves so closely to the following word as to coalesce into one ; consequently, k must be considered as being in the middle of the word thus formed. Compare ovKen, and 24, 2. 3. MOVABLE FINAL CONSONANTS. 24. 1. N movable (v i^eXicvaTiKov drawn after') is added ^ a) to third persons in -e(i') and -criQv) : eiralheveQii), eiraihev- (Te(y), irai,8evovai(^v^, BiBcocn(^v), 8iSo'acrt(i'), eia'i(y). b) to datives and locatives in -(Ti(y) : 7rdai(^v')^ 'K6rivr]ai,(y). c) to some other words with similar endings : dKoai(y), — i is used in all numbers. A-DECLENSION. 27. It includes all words with stems in -a, which in certain cases of the singular is changed to t}. The A-declension corresponds in general to the first declension in Latin ; it contains masculines and feminines. 28. FEMININES IN -o, -q, AND a.

THE CONSONANTAL DECLENSION. INTRODUCTORY NOTES. 36. 1. This declension includes all the stems that end in a con- sonant, or in -I, -u, and diphthongs, with a few in -a> and -o. It corresponds, therefore, in general to the third and fourth declensions in Latin. 2. For the regular case-endings see the declension of aX?, 37. Note. — a and -as, -t and -o-i are short. As not all successive consonants can remain unchanged (19), and no other consonant except v, p and ? can end a Greek word (23), certain changes must take place in the nom. sing, and Digitized by Microsoft® 37] CONSONANTAL DECLENSION. 19 in the dat. plur. before the endings -o- and -o-t, as well as in the final consonants of the pure stem. 3.

Neuters show their pure stems in the nom., ace. and voc. sing, as far as the rule for final consonants will allow (23). 4. In the ace. sing, and plur. masc. and fem., consonant stems have, as a rule, -a and -w added to them, vowel stems -v and -j'(9).

(omnis'), hence •jravro^, -rravTi, but ttolvtcov, 7rao-t(i/) (41, 3). c) in the gen. plur. of the words 6 iraK TraiSd<; hoy, to ois toTo? ear ; hence -n-aiSog, vraiSi, iraiaKy), but TraiScnv, wTof, wTi, and a>a((y), but mtco'p. 37.

Irregularities in the declension of nouns arise chiefly from the fact that the cases of a word are formed from two different stems. The following are the most common irregular nouns : 1. f) r^vvri woman derives all its other forms from the stem ^vvaiK-. The accentuation is that of monosyllabic consonant stems (36, 6) : rj r^vvri, yvvaiKO';, yvvatKi, 'yvvaiKa, yvvai, jwaiKev, jwatKoiv, jvvai^i^v'), yvvatKa';, 'yvvaiice?. 2. Zeu? the god Zeus (stems Zev- and At-) : Zeu9, AtoV, All, Aia, Zev. 3. o ^ Kvcov dog (stems kvov- and kvv-') : 6 7] KVCOV, KVVOi, KVVl, KVVU, Kvvepa}v, aSi^pov prudent, dpprjv, dppev male.

INFLECTION OF THE VERB (CONJUGATION). INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. 72. 1. The Greek verb appears to some advantage when con- trasted with the Latin verb, because it has an additional number: the dual, see 96; an additional voice : the middle, an additional tense : the aorist, an additional mood: the optative, and two verbal adjectives. 2. The middle voice has indeed an active meaning, but involves a reference of the action to the agent ; TraiSevo), for instance, means I educate, TraiSevo /jlm I educate for my own sake or benefit (mihi, dative), or, I educate myself (me ipsum, accusative). See 165. 3. The middle and the passive voices are the same in form, except in the future and aorist. Note. — Deponents -with the aorist in the middle form are called middle deponents (D.M.) ; deponents with the aorist in "the passive form are called passive deponents (D.P.). 4. The indicative of the aorist has its proper place in narra- tive. It corresponds to the historical perfect in Latin. 5. The optative is used in wishes : -TraiSevoifu may I educate, I zvish I were educating. However, this is not the only purpose it ^ serves ; see 174, 2 ; 176, 4. 6. There are six tenses in Greek, which are divided into principal 1 , [present, future, perfect, and historical J i imperfect, aorist (ind.), pluperfect. The historical tenses are also called preterit or augmented tenses. Digitized by Microsoft® §721 CONJUGATION. * 43 7. The Verb Stem and the Present Stem. All forms of the verb grow out of the verb stem, which almost always appears enlarged or strengthened in the present tense. For the manner of enlarging the verb stem, see 77 and 107-111. 8. There are two forms of conjugation in Greek, that of verbs in -ft), with a thematic vowel ; e.g. Titid-o-fjiev, rt/ia-e-re. in -/L«, without a thematic vowel ; e.g. Hara-fiev, lara-re. 9. The mood suffixes are not the same for all the moods : a) the subjunctive lengthens the thematic vowels -o- and -e- ; for example : indie. TraiSev-o-ixev, -TraiSev-e-re, subj. TraiBev-co-fiev, TraiBev-'ri-Te. b) the optative adds a suffix of its own: -t- or -irj- (te-) ; for example : indie. 7raiSev-o-fj,ev, "ara-re, opt. TraiBev-oi-jjiev, itTTa-iTj-re. 10. The personal endings are of two kinds: principal and historical; j)rincipal for the indicative of the princ. tenses, and the subjunctive, historical for the indicative of the historical tenses, and the optative ; in other words : for all augmented forms and optatives. 11. Rule of Accent for the inflection of verbs : In all forms of the verb, the accent is thrown back as far as possible (the verb has recessive accent). Still it can never recede beyond the augment, -at and -ot are counted as short, except in the optative. 12. Special points to be noticed : a) Contracted forms retain the accent on the contracted syllable, if either of the contracted vowels was accented : iTTOiovfieda (from i-Troie-ofMeda), fiaXov (from ^aXe-o), TraihevdSs (from TraiSev6e-co~), SiSo) (from StSo-m'). b) Optatives of passive aorists and of verbs in -fu have the accent, if possible, on that syllable which contains the mood suffix -t- : iraihevOelixev, 7raiSev6eiev — Tidel/Ji,ev, lelre, BtBolev, laraivTO. c) Infinitives, participles and verbal adjectives, which are in reality verbal nouns or adjectives, do not fall under the above rule ; participles retain the accent, if possible, upon the syllable which is accented in the nom. sing. masc. (25, 5). Digitized by Microsoft® 44 ♦ INFLECTION. [§§ 73, 74 d) Exceptions to the above rule for the verbal accent are conse- quently only such forms of second aorists act. and mid. as have the thematic vowel accented (see 86, 1 with note) ; hence the 2 ps. sg. of the aor. imp. mid. : y3aA.oS (from jiaXi-o, see a*), and a few active imperatives, as : ivwi (but airaire, t^uwe). AUGMENT. 73. 1. The augment (^augmentum, increase') is the sign of the past (historical, 72, 6) tenses. It is only used in the indicative of these tenses (imperfect, aorist, pluperfect), and never in any other moods or forms of the verb. Tliere is a syllabic and a temporal augment. 2. Verbs beginning with a consonant take the syllabic aug- ment. It consists of the prefix e ; thus TraiSevft) : i-7rai8euov, eTraiBevg-dfiriv. Initial p is doubled after e: epplinov I threw (22). 3. Verbs beginning with a vowel take the temporal augment. It consists in the lengthening of the initial voweL The breath- ing, however, is not changed. Thus • lead, impf. fj'yov. a is lengthened to Tj . dya e " " V ■ iXTTl^O) " "• (O orrXi^co I " " I . iSpVQ) V " " V v^pi^o) ot " " V ■■ alayyvc a " " V •■ aSco av " " riv: av^dvca 01 " " (0 : oIktCoq} hope, arm, erect, am insolent. rfX'wil^ov, anrXi^ov, VBpvov, v/3pi^ov, rj(r')(yvov, ySov, rjV^avov, (pKTipov. sing, increase, pity, 4. Verbs beginning with a long vowel or ov, and sometimes those beginning with et or ev, are not augmented; e.g. ovrd^QJ wound, impf. ovra^ov, elKa^co conjecture, " r/Ka^ov (^eiKa^ov'), evxofJ^ai pray, vow-_ " rjixoM^ (.evxofirjv). REDUPLICATION. 74. The reduplication enters into the perfect stem, and conse- quently appears in the perfect, pluperfect and future perfect. Reduplication takes place as follows : 1. Verbs beginning with one simple consonant (except p) repeat the same with e, a rough mute being replaced by its corre- sponding smooth ; Digitized by Microsoft® §75] AUGMENT. REDUPLICATION. 45 TraiBevco educate, perf. ire-TraiheVKa, Xopevco dance, " Ke-')(opevKa, (fyvTevm plant. 7re-(}3VTevKa, ffrjpevQ) hunt. " Te-6ripevKa. e.g. 2. Verbs beginning ' with a njute followed by a liquid (X, p., V, p) repeat only the mute with e; e.ff. K\el(o shut, perf. Ke-KKeiKa, Bpdo) do, " Be-BpaKu. 3. In all other cases the reduplication is the same as the augment ; e.g. ajQ) lead, impf. ■^701', ottXiXo) arm, " SyirXi^ov, KTl^CO found, " €KTl^O^, (TTpaTevm take the field, " ia-Tpdrevov, ^r]Tea) look for, aor. e^rjTrja-a, ■KJravco touch,' ■ " eyjrava-a\ jOtTTTft) throw, " epplyjra, only KTUofiaL acquire, has usually perf. ^x'^, " anrXiKa, " eKTlKU, " ia-TpdrevKa, " ei^rjT7)Ka, " eijriiVKa, " epplcf^a, " Ke-KTTjfiai. AUGMENT AND REDUPLICATION IN COMPOUNDS. 75< 1. In prepositional compounds, the simple form is augmented and reduplicated ; e.g. ek-dyo), el<;-r}yov, ek-rj^o- m-arpaTevay, i^-earpdrevov, i^-earpdrevKa. 2. Before the augment (or augment-like reduplication) : prepositions ending in a consonant resume their original form, if it has been changed in the present tense ; prepositions ending in a vowel (except irepL and irpo) drop it; throw into, impf. iv-e^aWov, gather, " crvv-eXeyov, draw together, " avv-ea-reWov, throw away, " d-rr-e^aXXov, throw upon, " eTr-e^aXXov, throw beside, " irap-e^aXXov, throw around, " irepi-e^aXXov, flow around, " Trepi-eppeov, throw before, " irpov^aXXov, (or irpo-e^aXXov, 18, 2). 3. Such denominative verbs as are derived from nounal com- pounds have the augment and the' reduplication at the beginning ; Digitized by Microsoft® e.g. ifi/3dXXa) a-vXXeyci) (TVcrreXXoa avo^dXXo) irapa^dXXco but Trepi-/3dXX(o irepippeo) Trpo^dXXm 46 INFLECTION.

Such II perfects and II plupf. active (without «!) are found only in mute verbs and in some few liquid verbs. 1 111 tlie present work, only such perfects as end in -Ka are called I perfects, all others, including aspirated forms, are designated as II perfects.

It may happen that the verb stem remains unchanged in the second perfect (3, a). But more frequently it is changed as follows : final gutturals and labials are altered to the corresponding rough mutes (3, b.) ; short vowels of the stem undergo certain changes (3, c.) ; or both aspiration and change of vowel take place (3, d.). Several II perfects have an intransitive meaning. 8. Of regular verbs the following II pf. are the most common : a) No change in the verb stem is made in: KVTJ-TQ) stoops St. Kwj}.- pcrf.

In this reduplication, the first two letters of the stem are repeated before the temporal augment. 6.

IRREGULAR CONJUGATION. Introductory Note. 107. Some of the irregular verbs have their presents enlarged or strengthened in a manner different from that described in 77, others form their tenses from several, mostly quite different, stems. Hence we obtain five other classes of verbs, 108-112. Fourth Class (Lengthening of Vowel in Present). 108. The verbs have in the present a lengthened vowel. In the II aorist, however, they take, as a rule, the corresponding short or weak vowel. In some of them there is a change of quality (ablaut) in the II perfect. A similar change from strong to weak vowel (11), and the ablaut is sometimes met with in word formation : E.g. vyov, rj (fivjij, 6 ^vyd<}. XetVa) leave, II perf. XeXoiva, XotTroV. Note. — Here belong four verbs in -cm : TrXeta sail (fut. itXeu-crofmi), y^iot pour (To.X'^v-fm gush), trvito breathe (to Trvev-jm breath), pem flow (to paj-fjia. stream). nXevu) became first ■TrXifu), then irXeio ; for the forms of pew, see 102, 4. b.
