1) I'm trying to gather the various examples that different grammars use for
the each class of the various noun and verb paradigms (Both Classical,
Hellenistic and Biblical Greek). Does anyone have such a list?
2) Regarding the class name or identifier for each class -- does anyone
have a table that compares the various ways of labeling them? Apostolos is
identified as being n-2a in some places, stem type os_ou on the Perseus site
and in the 2nd delcension (non-contracted) in Smyth. Verb stems have
similar variations on stem type identification. I learned Greek in the
1970's and never remember any such numbering system as n-2a. I know that
Robinson and Packard use a similar standard in their morphological analysis.
I must assume that a computer standard system has been established. Does
this system have a name? When did it begin? I don't have Mounce's
Morphology book yet - just my Smyth, Moulton and other older stuff. Does
Mounce use this system. Is it consistent or are there areas where the
classification types are still unsettled? Any help on this would be
appreciated.
Thanks,
Louis L Sorenson
