Shelmerdine Chapter 32 1. The 2nd (strong) perfect active • The term 2nd (strong) perfect refers to verb which does not add the tense marker -κ- to form its perfect stem. • This happens almost always because adding -κ to the verb stem would make it difficult or unpleasant to pronounce.
Shelmerdine Chapter 32 Looking up a Greek verb The 1st sg perfect indicative active is the fourth principal part of a verb • ἄγω, ἄξω, ἤγαγον, ἦχαlead, bring • γράφω, γράψω, ἔγραψα, γέγραφαwrite • διώκω, διώξω, ἐδίωξα, δεδίωχαpursue • λύω, λύσω, ἔλυσα, λέλυκαloose, set free • πείθω, πείσω, ἔπεισα, πέπεικαpersuade • πέμπω, πέμψω, ἔπεμψα, πέπομφαsend

Shelmerdine Chapter 31 2. Reduplication • The reduplication necessary to form the perfect stem might also be modified for pronunciation purposes. • For a stem beginning with an aspirated consonant, reduplication means only the stop consonant doubles, not the aspiration: • θυ- τεθυ-
Shelmerdine Chapter 31 2. Reduplication • The reduplication necessary to form the perfect stem might also be modified for pronunciation purposes. • For a stem beginning with a vowel, reduplication means effectively lengthening the vowel: • ἀ-, ἐ- ἠ- • ὀ- ὠ- • ἰ- ἰ- • ὐ- ὐ-

Shelmerdine Chapter 32 3. The perfect middle/passive of consonant stem verbs • Also for purpose of pronunciation, if the stem of the verb ends in a consonant, some assimilation takes place with the consonant of the ending. • Recall the basic relationship of the consonants (Shelmerdine page 2).
Shelmerdine Chapter 32 3. The perfect middle/passive of consonant stem verbs • Middle verb endings start with one of five consonant sounds: • μ (μαι, μην, μεθα, μένος –η –ον) • σ (σαι, σο) • τ (ται, το) • σθ (σθε, σθαι) • ντ (νται, ντο)
Shelmerdine Chapter 32 3. The perfect middle/passive of consonant stem verbs • Labials and palatals assimilate to the voice and aspiration of the adjacent consonant. • Dentals become σ throughout.
Shelmerdine Chapter 32 3. The perfect middle/passive of consonant stem verbs • The third person plural endings (νται, ντο) yield clusters too complicated to be pronounced smoothly (e.g., μντ, σντ, γντ), especially for a construction used only rarely.
Shelmerdine Chapter 32 3. The perfect middle/passive of consonant stem verbs • Consequently, Greek substitutes a periphrastic (using multiple words to substitute for a single one) construction: the perfect passive participle + 3rd person plural form of εἰμί. • For γράφω, for example, instead of *γέγραμνται, we find γεγραμμένοι εἰσι, literally “having been written, they are” “they have been written.”

Shelmerdine Chapter 32 • 4. The perfect active participle • To form the perfect active participle, • to the perfect active stem, add • -ώς –υῖα –ός(nominative singular endings) • -ν- disappearsin the masculine/neuter, • -υι- replaces -ουσ- in the feminine, • but otherwise identical to the present active. • λελυκώς λελυκυῖα λελυκόςκτλ. • See page 224 for the full paradigm.

Shelmerdine Chapter 32 • 5. The perfect middle/passive participle • All participles in the middle voice have the marker -μεν-. • All participles in the middle voice use –ος –η –ονendings. • Thus to form the perfect middle participle, • to the perfect middle stem, • add –μένος –μένη –μένον • λελυμένοςλελυμένηλελυμένον • See page 225 for the full paradigm.

Shelmerdine Chapter 32 6. Supplementary participles not in indirect statement • You have seen a number of verbs which complete their meaning with an infinitive: • ἐθέλω μένειν. “I want to stay.” • κελεύω σε μένειν. “I order you to stay.” • This use of the infinitive is called the “complementary infinitive.”
Shelmerdine Chapter 32 6. Supplementary participles not in indirect statement • Some verbs complete their meaning with a circumstantial participle. • This use of the participle is called the “supplementary participle” but is really just a technical term for a specialized use of circumstantial participles for verbs that virtually always use them. • This section gives examples of three verbs which use supplementary participles: τυγχάνω, λανθάνω andφθάνω.
Shelmerdine Chapter 32 6. Supplementary participles not in indirect statement • τυγχάνω means “meet by chance” • τυγχάνω τοῦ φύλακος. “I meet the guard by chance” or “I happen to run into the guard.” • An accompanying supplementary participle expresses what the subject happens to be doing at the time. • τυγχάνω βαίνων οἴκαδε. “I happen to be walking home.” • Notice that English normally expresses this idea with an infinitive (“to walk”) rather than a participle.
Shelmerdine Chapter 32 6. Supplementary participles not in indirect statement • λανθάνω means “escape notice.” The accompanying supplementary participle expresses what the subject is doing at the time. • λανθάνω τὸν φύλακαφεύγων. “I escape the guard’s notice while I escape” “I escape without the guard noticing.” • λανθάνω φεύγων. “I escape without being noticed.” • Notice that English makes the action of the participle (“escape”) the main verb.
Shelmerdine Chapter 32 6. Supplementary participles not in indirect statement • φθάνω means “do something before” someone or anyone else. The accompanying supplementary participle expresses what the subject does. • φθάνω τὸν ἵππονἄγων. “As I lead the horse, I am doing it before anyone else.” “I lead the horse first.” • φθάνω σε τὸν ἵππονἄγων.“I lead the horse before you do.” • Notice that English makes the action of the participle (“lead”) the main verb.
