Question 38

Which form indicates an instant action (happening right now): γράφω or γράψω?

Answer 38

γράψω – This uses ψ, signifying an instant, one-time action happening right now. (think of the sound ψ with lightening coming out of it- instant!) γράφω – This is for ongoing or regular actions, with no change to the stem. (think: no change, not happening this instant, boring, ongoing)

Question 39

When you see "να," ask yourself...

Answer 39

Is this action something ongoing or continuous, or is it a single, one-time event? If you're talking about an ongoing action or something that's in progress, the verb after "να" will usually remain in its base form (like "γράφω"). If it's a single, future action, then you'll typically change the stem (like "γράψω"). Essentially, "να" acts as a marker that triggers the verb to express a desire, a suggestion, or a future action, which is why you’ll need to consider what kind of action is being referred to (whether it’s a continuous, habitual action or something specific and completed).

Question 40

What are the most common letters or changes that signal a verb is in the aorist subjunctive form (να + action happening now)? What else is a common change that happens with this form?

Answer 40

σ — shows up in many verbs (e.g., κλείνω → να κλείσω) ψ — appears when the stem ends in certain consonants (e.g., γράφω → να γράψω) ξ — less common, appears in verbs like παίζω → να παίξω Often, the stem changes (shorter or different than the present form): πηγαίνω → πάω: Different root entirely βρίσκω → βρω: Stem is dramatically shortened

Question 41

You're turning a present-tense Greek verb into the aorist subjunctive. What letter do you usually add when the present verb ends in: -ω? -κ, -χ, or -γ? -π, -φ, or -β?

Answer 41

-add -σ- (e.g., γράφω → να γράψω) -add -ξ- (e.g., δείχνω → δείξω) -add -ψ- (e.g., γράφω → να γράψω)
