Dentals drop before σ , shift to σ before passive θ (ἐβαπτίσθην) , and θ can displace κ in Leluka (ἐλήλυθα) ; ξ comes from γ /κ /χ + σ .
3 In the synoptic parallels Ἠλίας ἤδη ἦλθεν (Matt 17:12) and Ἠλίας ἐλήλυθεν (Mark 9:13), the Aorist and Leluka are near-identical in meaning, both implying a result. True or false True False
Coming implies a change of location, so both forms carry an implied result and both translations are acceptable.
4 What does ἀληθέσ-ες become in the masculine-feminine nominative plural? ἀληθῆ ἀληθεῖς ἀληθέσι ἀληθοῦς
The σ drops out and ε + ε contract: ἀληθέες → ἀληθεῖς .
5 What happens in the dative plural of ἀληθής when the stem’s σ drops out? The vowel lengthens, giving ἀληθῆσι ε contracts with ι , giving ἀληθεῖ The ending becomes -ῶν The vowel does not lengthen, giving ἀληθέσι
In the dat pl, ἀληθέσ-σι → ἀληθέσι with no lengthening, unlike the nom sg ἀληθής .
6 Which adjectives follow the same -ης , -ες pattern as ἀληθής ? Select all that apply πλήρης ἄρσην ἀσεβής ὅσος ὑγιής
πλήρης , ἀσεβής , and ὑγιής are listed with the ἀληθής paradigm; ἄρσην follows a different 3rd declension pattern and ὅσος is -ος /-η /-ον .
7 How is ὅσος typically used with the quantifier πᾶς ? Always singular and preceding it Only in the genitive Always plural and always following it, e.g. πάντα ὅσα Only when a relative clause follows

8 In οὐκ ἔξεστίν σοι ἔχειν τὴν γυναῖκα τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ σου (Mark 6:18), what kind of complement follows the dative subject verb? An infinitive A ἵνα clause A prepositional phrase An ὅτι clause
ἔξεστιν takes the infinitive ἔχειν as its complement; συμφέρει takes ἵνα in Matt 5:29 and μέλει a preposition in John 10:13.
9 Of μέλει , ἔξεστιν , and συμφέρει , none is ever found in the imperative in the NT. True or false True False
μέλει is found once in the imperative, while ἔξεστιν and συμφέρει are not, which fits their non-volitional experiencer subjects.
