I am reading Wallace's Greek Grammar book where he
refers to how a genitive can function when it involves
a verbal noun (Subjective or Objective or Plenary).
But to avoid confusion, he distinguishes verbal nouns
(where there is a corresponding cognate verb) in
general from infinitives specifically. Of infinitives,
he says that an infinitive is a verbal noun
"syntactically." That is not how I have learned to use
this word. Is he using this term as others would? If
not, how would you label an infinitive?
