preferred to see regular BG transliteration in upper-case characters,
but what you've set forth seems pretty accurate and I would add only
the one subcategory to your first-declension masculines.
I will look up the official BG transliteration chart. I haven't looked at it
in awhile. Sorry.
Thank you for the reminder of the AS masculines. I did see those in a couple
of the books, but forgot about them :-( Why can't one book just give the
entire list of rules? Sigh! In an attempt not to be overwhelming, they just make
it harder :-( There is a lot to learn if you want to accent 1st declension!
I do think maybe, having to hunt for the information, and put it into a
useable note form, probably helps me to remember it better, though. So I guess in
the long run I may be ahead of the game. I just get so frustrated sometimes
with the textbooks, though.
Thank you so much for reading over my notes! I don't want to memorize
something wrong! also, I just feel so inadequate to be deciding I think I know more
than a textbook written by someone that must know a lot more Greek than I
do. At least I hope they do :-0 Sometimes it doesn't seem that way :-0
