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
