1 Which of these dative uses are core datives? Select all that apply Manner Affective Argument Perspectival Temporal
Manner, argument, and temporal datives are core; affective and perspectival datives are non-core.
2 Which of these are Leluka medio-passive infinitives? Select all that apply δεδέσθαι πεπίστευκα κατηρτίσθαι ἑστήκατε πεφανερῶσθαι
δεδέσθαι , κατηρτίσθαι , and πεφανερῶσθαι have Leluka duplication and -σθαι ; πεπίστευκα and ἑστήκατε are finite Leluka forms.
3 In Matt 24:6, οὔπω ἐστὶν τὸ τέλος uses the present ἐστίν because the temporal anchor has shifted to a future time. True or false True False
The end not having come is evaluated after future events, so the TA shifts to that future time and the present tense is used.
4 1 Cor 3:2 shows that ἔτι , like οὔπω , is marked as negative. True or false True False
ἔτι can be used for 'still' or 'not yet,' showing it is unmarked for polarity; only οὔπω is marked as negative.
5 In προσκυνήσει τῷ θεῷ (1 Cor 14:25), why is the argument in the dative rather than the accusative? God is affected by the worship It is a non-core perspective-holder The argument is not affected by the eventuality It marks the time of the worship
Argument datives occur with verbs whose argument is not changed by the event, whereas accusative arguments normally involve some change.
6 In ὃς γὰρ ἂν ποιήσῃ τὸ θέλημα τοῦ θεοῦ (Mark 3:35), why is the relative clause modal? It refers to inspecific people It expresses a prohibition It is a counterfactual apodosis It expresses the speaker's wish
Relative clauses may be modal when they refer to inspecific people, here 'whoever would do God's will.'
7 How can ἠγαπήκαμεν in οὐχ ὅτι ἡμεῖς ἠγαπήκαμεν τὸν θεόν (1 John 4:10) receive a perfective reading? Leluka coerces the state into an event that manifests love ἀγαπάω is inherently an event verbThe negation οὐχ requires a perfective Leluka always has a perfective meaning
Through coercion, Leluka turns the state ἀγαπάω into an event of showing love; this would not work with a state like οἶδα .
8 In ἡ θυγάτηρ μου ἄρτι ἐτελεύτησεν (Matt 9:18), what does ἄρτι indicate? An event with a transition that has recently occurred An eventuality that has not yet occurred An eventuality that has come to an end A transition referenced in the future
With the telic predicate 'die,' ἄρτι marks a recent transition to a new state: 'has just died.'
9 Which use of the subjunctive appears in τοῦτο δέ ἐστιν τὸ θέλημα … ἵνα … μὴ ἀπολέσω (John 6:39)? Negative epistemic certainty Ability modal in a question Relative clause with ἄν Content of a modal noun in a ἵνα clause
Modal nouns like θέλημα , as well as modal verbs, can take ἵνα + subjunctive as a complement giving their content.
