In my grammar it says that EI (if) never gets an accent. We can use this information to distinguish this word from EI (2nd sg. of EIMI)
I attempted to translate Rev.20:15. There EI occurs with an accent, so I tried to translate it with "you are".Needless to say I ran into trouble and ended up cheating by checking an English Bible and found it translated with "it".
Can someone explain this to me?
Thank you
