  3. Overview of this Lesson • In this lesson we will learn: • The third declension (or pattern of inflection) for stems ending in a consonant; • The Master Case Endings Chart; • Noun rules 7 and 8.

  4. Review of Declension • Remember that declension only affects the form of a word, not its meaning. • First declension: • stems ending in a or h • feminine gender • Second declension: • stems ending in o • masculine gender • Third declension applies to nouns whose stem ends in a consonant. Some of the case endings are different, but some are the same as you have already learned.

  5. Third Declension Compared to First and Second • Because of changes that take place in the nominative singular, it is more difficult to determine the stem of the word. • Whatever happens in the nominative singular also happens in the dative plural.

  6. Three Third Declension Stems • Third declension stems are categorized by their end consonant. • Endings can vary depending upon the gender of the noun. • A nu will drop out when followed by a sigma. • A tau will drop out when followed by a sigma or when it stands at the end of a word (noun rule #7).

  7. The Interrogative Pronoun Ti,jand the Indefinite Pronoun Tij

  8. The Adjective ei-j (“one”) • The stem of the masculine and neuter is en but the feminine is mia. • Notice that this word in the masculine and neuter has rough breathing, which helps distinguish it from the prepositions eivjand evn.

  9. Master Case Ending Chart

  10. Noun Rule #7 - The Square of Stops

  11. Pa/jas an Example of a 3-1-3 Adjective

  12. Summary • Words whose stems end in a consonant use third declension endings. • The stem of a third declension can be found by dropping the case ending from the genitive singular. • The gender of a third declension noun must be memorized or looked up in a lexicon. • Memorize the Master Case Ending Chart and the Square of Stops Chart (Noun Rule #7). • Noun Rule #8 – A tau cannot stand at the end of the word and will drop off. • Memorizing (or at least recognizing) the paradigm for pa/j will help you for grammar yet to come.

  13. For Next Week • Due to our Missions Conference, we will not meet next week. • Vocabulary quiz through chapter 10 will be sent out via email. • Exercise 10 is due. • Read Chapters 11 and 12, “First and Second Person Personal Pronouns” and “auvto,j.” Do the corresponding exercises in the workbook for our next class. • If you like, you can listen to audio lectures on chapters 11 and 12 at www.biblicaltraining.org.
