1 Which of these Luso middles belong to the mixed class (Aorist stem + σ + middle endings)? Select all that apply λήμψομαι φάγομαι ἐλεύσομαι πορεύσομαι γενήσομαι
λήμψομαι (ἔλαβον) , ἐλεύσομαι (ἦλθον) , and γενήσομαι (ἐγενόμην) combine an Aorist stem with σ . φάγομαι has no σ , and πορεύσομαι uses the present stem.
2 What does the deontic use of Luso express, as in οὐκ ἔσεσθε ὡς οἱ ὑποκριταί (Matt 6:5)? A logical consequence of a hypothetical An obligation at a future time A state with no endpoint An event in progress in the future
The deontic Luso refers to a future time when someone is obligated to act: ‘You should not be like the hypocrites.’
3 Why does κεκράτηκα have η where the stem κρατε- has ε ? The ending begins with a consonant, so ε lengthens to η ε + ε contracts to η The reduplication lengthens the stem vowel The augment is absorbed into the stem
When the ending begins with a consonant, the ε of an ε- contract stem lengthens to η .
4 Which form shows an ε- contract stem that does not lengthen before a consonant? ἐκράτησα ἐκρατήθην ἐκάλεσα κεκράτηκα
Some stems, like καλε- , do not always lengthen before a consonant (ἐκάλεσα) , though they do in some forms (κέκληκα) .
5 Which statements about 3rd declension -ις nouns like πόλις are correct? Select all that apply The accusative singular ends in -ν rather than -α The stem ends in ι in every form The genitive singular ending lengthens to -ως The nominative plural stays uncontracted as -εες The dative singular contracts to -ει
The acc sg is πόλιν , the gen sg is πόλεως , and ε contracts in the dat sg (πόλει) and in the nom/acc pl (πόλεις) . The ι stem appears only in the nom/acc sg.
6 The -σις noun ἀποκάλυψις ‘revelation’ is derived from which verb? ἀφίημι δέομαι γινώσκω ἀποκαλύπτω
The suffix -σις often makes a noun out of a verb stem: ἀποκαλύπτω ‘to reveal’ gives ἀποκάλυψις .
7 The neuter ἕν is the default counting form of ‘one.’ True or false True False
The neuter ἕν is the default counting form; the masculine εἷς and the neuter share the stem ἑν- .
8 In καὶ ἔσονται οἱ δύο εἰς σάρκα μίαν (Mark 10:8), how is οἱ δύο used? Without a noun, referring to an implied one As a predicate adjective As an adverb meaning ‘twice’ As the object of εἰς
Like adjectives, numbers can stand alone when the context makes the referent clear: οἱ δύο means ‘the two (people).’
9 According to the lesson, the performative εὐδόκησα in Mark 1:11 proves that the augment does not mark past tense. True or false True False
The lesson notes that this use is not necessarily an argument against the Aorist being a past tense; it only observes that the Aorist can be used this way.
