The ν drops before σ in -ον stems (τέκτοσι) , ντ drops and ο lengthens in -οντ stems (ἄρχουσι) , and χιτών gives χιτῶσι .
2 Which form of χιτών has an acute accent over the ω ? χιτῶνος χιτῶνι χιτώνων χιτῶνας
In this class the ω has a circumflex in every form except the nom sg and the gen pl (χιτώνων) .
3 How do Efagon active participles such as λαβών differ from Luo active participles? They use different endings They add σα before the ending Only in their stem, which is the Aorist stem They have regressive accent

4 Why is the periphrastic ἔσονται … πίπτοντες (Mark 13:25) needed for ‘will be falling’? Luso cannot refer to states Periphrastics are required with plural subjects πίπτω has no Luso formLuso on its own is not used for events in progress
Luso can refer to the middle of states, but not on its own to events in progress; for that the periphrastic participle is used.
5 In οὐ γάρ ἐσμεν ὡς οἱ πολλοὶ καπηλεύοντες τὸν λόγον τοῦ θεοῦ (2 Cor 2:17), the lesson considers taking καπηλεύοντες as a noun (‘traders’) probably the better analysis. True or false True False
εἰμί can take a predicate noun naming a group, so ‘we are not traders’ is probably better than reading a periphrastic ‘we are not trading.’

7 What does the subjunctive in δῶμεν ἢ μὴ δῶμεν ; (Mark 12:14) mean? Let us give and not refuse! We must not give. Are we obligated to give or not? So that we may give or not give
In questions, the subjunctive can reference an obligation that is being questioned, as in the question about paying taxes to Caesar.
