C.W. Shelmerdine Introduction to Greek 2nd edition (Newburyport, MA: Focus, 2008) Chapter 24 Shelmerdine Chapter 24 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Reflexive pronouns Direct and indirect reflexives The reciprocal pronoun Questions Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives τοιοῦτος, τοσοῦτος Shelmerdine Chapter 24 αὐτός • Recall from Chapter 9.2-4 the very common pronoun and adjective αὐτός -ή -ό, which declines like a regular adjective (σοφός -ή -όν), except – – the neuter nom/acc singular is αὐτό (rather than αὐτόν). it has no vocative forms. Shelmerdine Chapter 24 αὐτός • αὐτός -ή -ό has several different functions: – In all cases, but only in the predicate position, it can serve as an intensifier • – In all cases, but only in the attributive position, it means “the same” • – ὁ Σωκράτης αὐτός Socrates himself. ὁ αὐτὸς Σωκράτης The same Socrates. In the oblique cases (genitive, dative, accusative), it serves as a generic pronoun: • ὁ Σωκράτης βάλλει αὐτό. Socrates throws it. Shelmerdine Chapter 24 αὐτός • αὐτός -ή -ό has several different functions: – In the oblique cases (genitive, dative, accusative), it serves as a generic pronoun: • ὁ Σωκράτης βάλλει αὐτό. Socrates throws it. – This use as a pronoun means it frequently indicates possession. • φιλῶ τὴν τοῦ Σωκράτους γυναῖκα. – I like Socrates’ wife. • φιλῶ τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ. – I like his wife.

Reflexive pronouns Direct and indirect reflexives The reciprocal pronoun Questions Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives τοιοῦτος, τοσοῦτος Shelmerdine Chapter 24 1. Reflexive pronouns • Greek and English form reflexive pronouns much the same way: combine a personal pronoun with the intensive pronoun. – – – – – – ἐμ(ε) + αὐτοῦ etc. = my + self ἡμῶν + αὐτῶν etc. = our + selves σε + αὐτοῦ etc. = your + self ὑμῶν + αὐτῶν etc. = your + selves ἑ + αὐτοῦ etc. = him/her/it + self ἑ + αὐτῶν etc. = them + selves Shelmerdine Chapter 24 1. Reflexive pronouns • For example, the first person singular reflexive pronoun becomes: – – – – Genitive: ἐμαυτοῦ/ῆς Dative: ἐμαυτῷ/ῇ Accusative: ἐμαυτόν/ήν ἐμαυτὸν ὁρῶ. I see myself. Shelmerdine Chapter 24 1. Reflexive pronouns • In the plural, the two parts are kept separate: – – – – Genitive: ἡμῶν αὐτῶν Dative: ἡμῖν αὐτοῖς/αῖς Accusative: ἡμᾶς αὐτούς/άς ὁρῶμεν ἡμᾶς αὐτούς. We see ourselves. Shelmerdine Chapter 24 1. Reflexive pronouns • The second person singular reflexive pronoun becomes: – – – – Genitive: σεαυτοῦ/ῆς Dative: σεαυτῷ/ῇ Accusative: σεαυτόν/ήν σεαυτὸν ὁρᾷς. You see yourself. Shelmerdine Chapter 24 1. Reflexive pronouns • In the plural, the two parts are kept separate: – – – – Genitive: ὑμῶν αὐτῶν Dative: ὑμῖν αὐτοῖς/αῖς Accusative: ὑμᾶς αὐτούς/άς ὁρῶτε ὑμᾶς αὐτούς. Y’all see yourselves. Shelmerdine Chapter 24 1. Reflexive pronouns • The third person reflexive pronoun combines in both the singular and plural: – – – – – – Genitive: ἑαυτοῦ/ῆς, ἑαυτῶν Dative: ἑαυτῷ/ῇ , ἑαυτοῖς/αῖς Accusative: ἑαυτόν/ήν, ἑαυτούς/άς ἑαυτὸν ὁρᾷ. He sees himself. ἑαυτὴν ὁρᾷ. She sees herself. ἑαυτοὺς ὁρῶσιν. They see themselves. Shelmerdine Chapter 24 1. Reflexive pronouns • Warning: Sometimes the ε- contracts and disappears, and only the rough breathing distinguishes the reflexive pronoun from the personal pronoun. – – – – – – αὐτὸν ὁρῶσιν. They see him. αὐτὴν ὁρῶσιν. They see her. αὐτοὺς ὁρῶσιν. They see them. αὑτὸν ὁρᾷ. He sees himself. αὑτὴν ὁρᾷ. She sees herself. αὑτοὺς ὁρῶσιν. They see themselves.

Reflexive pronouns Direct and indirect reflexives The reciprocal pronoun Questions Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives τοιοῦτος, τοσοῦτος Shelmerdine Chapter 24 2. Direct and indirect reflexives • Like αὐτός -ή -ό, the third person reflexive pronoun will indicate possession, but in the attributive position. – ὁ Περικλῆς φυλάττει τοὺς τῆς Ἀθήνης πολίτας. • – ὁ Περικλῆς φυλάττει τοὺς πολίτας αὐτῆς. • – – Pericles protects Athena’s citizens. Pericles protects her citizens. ἡ Ἀθήνη φυλάττει τοὺς ἑαυτῆς πολίτας. ἡ Ἀθήνη φυλάττει τοὺς αὑτῆς πολίτας. • Athena protects her (own) citizens. Shelmerdine Chapter 24 2. Direct and indirect reflexives • There is a .pdf posted in Moodle which arranges all the Personal and Reflexive Pronouns together on one page. Shelmerdine Chapter 24 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Reflexive pronouns Direct and indirect reflexives The reciprocal pronoun Questions Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives τοιοῦτος, τοσοῦτος Shelmerdine Chapter 24 3. The reciprocal pronoun • Recall the adjective ἄλλος –η –ο “other”: – – • φιλῶμεν ἄλλους. We love others. φιλῶμεν τοὺς ἄλλους. We love the others. Greek has an extended form, which for logical reasons exists only in the plural and only in the oblique cases, which means “each other”: – φιλῶμεν ἀλλήλους. We love each other.

Questions • The word ἆρα marks a simple yes/no question. – – τὰ ἀληθὴ λέγω. I tell the truth. ἆρα τὰ ἀληθὴ λέγεις; Are you telling the truth? ἆρ’ οὐ assumes the answer will be “yes.” • – ἆρ’ οὐ τὰ ἀληθὴ λέγεις; You’re telling the truth, aren’t you? ἆρα μή assumes the answer will be “no.” • – ἆρα μὴ τὰ ἀληθὴ λέγεις; You’re not telling the truth, are you?

Reflexive pronouns Direct and indirect reflexives The reciprocal pronoun Questions Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives τοιοῦτος, τοσοῦτος Shelmerdine Chapter 24 5. Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives • This chapter introduces some of the most common words in Greek, demonstrative pronouns. A demonstrative pronoun “points out” (Latin demonstrare) a person, place or thing. English has two common demonstrative pronouns: • • – – This/these refers to nouns near to the speaker in some way (“this crocodile here”). That/those refers to nouns distant from the speaker in some way (“that crocodile there”). Shelmerdine Chapter 24 5. Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives • • The Greek demonstrative adjective ἐκεῖνος -η -ο declines regularly, except, like αὐτός -ή -ό, – – the neuter nom/acc singular is ἐκεῖνο (rather than ἐκεῖνον). it has no vocative forms. It corresponds generally to English that/those. When modifying a noun, the noun normally has an article and ἐκεῖνος -η -ο must be in the predicate position. – – – – ἐκεῖνος ὁ κροκόδειλος “that crocodile” ἐκεῖνος “that man” ἐκείνη “that woman” ἐκεῖνα “those things” Shelmerdine Chapter 24 5. Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives • Greek has two adjectives which correspond generally to English this/those: – – οὗτος αὕτη τοῦτο ὅδε ἥδε τόδε Shelmerdine Chapter 24 5. Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives • The Greek demonstrative adjective οὗτος αὕτη τοῦτο declines regularly with the stem τουτ-, except – – – the neuter nom/acc singular is τοῦτο (rather than τοῦτον). The nom/acc neuter plural forms and all feminine forms but the genitive plural change the stem to ταυτ-. The nominative masculine and feminine forms replace the initial τ with a rough breathing. Shelmerdine Chapter 24 5. Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives • οὗτος αὕτη τοῦτο οὗτος αὕτη τοῦτο οὗτοι αὗται ταῦτα τούτου ταύτης τούτου τούτων τούτων τούτων τούτῳ ταύτῃ τούτῳ τούτοις ταύταις τούτοις τοῦτον ταύτην τοῦτο τούτους ταύτας ταῦτα vocative = nominative Shelmerdine Chapter 24 5. Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives • ὅδε ἥδε τόδε is the definite article with the suffix -δε. ὅδε ἥδε τοῦδε τῆσδε τῷδε τῇδε τόνδε τήνδε τόδε τοῦδε τῷδε τόδε οἵδε αἵδε τάδε τῶνδε τῶνδε τῶνδε τοῖσδε ταῖσδε τοῖσδε τούσδε τάσδε τάδε Shelmerdine Chapter 24 5. Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives – οὗτος αὕτη τοῦτο and ὅδε ἥδε τόδε correspond generally to English this/these. When modifying a noun, the noun normally has an article and the adjective must be in the predicate position. – – – – οὗτος (ὅδε) ὁ κροκόδειλος “this crocodile” οὗτος, ὅδε “this man” αὕτη, ἥδε “this woman” ταῦτα, τάδε “these things” Shelmerdine Chapter 24 5. Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives • In general, οὗτος αὕτη τοῦτο refers to something already mentioned, while ὅδε ἥδε τόδε refers to something about to be mentioned: – ὁ Σωκράτης ἀπέβη· τοῦτό σοι λέγω. • – Socrates left. This is what I’m telling you. λέγω σοι τάδε· ὁ Σωκράτης ἀπέβη. • I’m telling you this: Socrates left. Shelmerdine Chapter 24 5. Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives • οὗτος αὕτη τοῦτο and ὅδε ἥδε τόδε appear very often in adverbial form: – – τὰ χρήματα μοι ἔδωκεν· οὕτω μοι ἔπεισεν. τὰ χρήματα μοι ἔδωκεν· οὕτως ἔπεισέ μοι. • • – He gave me money. This way, he convinced me. (The final -ς drops before a consonant.) ἔπεισέ μοι ὧδε· τὰ χρήματά μοι ἔδωκεν· • He convinced me this way: he gave me money. Shelmerdine Chapter 24 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Reflexive pronouns Direct and indirect reflexives The reciprocal pronoun Questions Demonstrative pronouns / adjectives τοιοῦτος, τοσοῦτος Shelmerdine Chapter 24 6. τοιοῦτος, τοσοῦτος • Two compounds of οὗτος αὕτη τοῦτο refer specifically to the quantity or quality of something: – τοι- + οὗτος αὕτη τοῦτο τοιοῦτος τοιαύτη τοιοῦτο • – τοιοῦτος “this kind of man” (quality) τοσ- + οὗτος αὕτη τοῦτο τοσοῦτος τοσαύτη τοσοῦτο • τοσαῦτα χρήματα “this much money” (quantity) Shelmerdine Chapter 24 for next class (Wednesday, March 2, 2011): • Quiz: Write out the forms of οὗτος αὕτη τοῦτο on page 166. • Prepare Reading “A Strange Rescue” for class. Shelmerdine Chapter 24 ἦν δὲ ποτε ἐν Κορίνθῳ κιθαρῳδός, ὀνόματι Ἀρίων, οὐδενὸς δεύτερος τῶν τότε ὄντων· καὶ οὗτος ὁ Ἀρίων, ὡς λέγουσι, τὸν πολὺν τοῦ χρόνου μείνας παρὰ Περιάνδρῳ, τῷ Κορίνθου τυράννῳ, ἔπλευσεν εἰς Ἰταλίαν τε καὶ Σικελίαν, τέλος δὲ χρήματα μεγάλα ἐκεῖ δεξάμενος διὰ τὴν τέχνην, ἐβούλετο πάλιν εἰς Κόρινθον πλεῖν.

Shelmerdine Chapter 24 πιστεύων δὲ μάλιστα τοῖς Κορινθίοις ἐμισθώσατο πλοῖον ἀνδρῶν Κορινθίων· ἀπέπλευσαν μὲν οὖν ἀπὸ Τάραντος, ἐν δὲ τῷ πελάγει οἱ ναῦται ἐπεβούλευσαν τὸν Ἀρίονα ἐκβαλόντες ἔχειν τὰ χρήματα αὐτοῦ· ὁ δέ τοῦτο μαθὼν ᾔτησεν αὐτοὺς χρήματα μὲν λαβεῖν, τὴν δ’ ἑαυτοῦ ψυχὴν σῶσαι.

Shelmerdine Chapter 24 ἀλλ’ οὐ πεισθέντες οἱ ναῦται ἐκέλευσαν αὐτὸν ἢ ἑαυτὸν ἀποκτείνειν, εἰ τάφον βούλεται ἐν γῇ, ἢ εὐθὺς ἐκπηδᾶν εἰς τὴν θάλατταν. ὁ δὲ Ἀρίων εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· Ἐᾶτέ με πρῶτον ἐν τῇ σκευῇ πάσῃ ἀείδειν. οἱ δὲ ἀπεχώρησαν ἐκ τῆς πρύμνης εἰς μέσην τὴν ναῦν. ἔπειτα δὲ ὁ μὲν Ἀρίων, λαβὼν τὴν κιθάραν καὶ ἀείσας, ἔβαλεν ἑαυτὸν εἰς τὴν θάλατταν, τὴν σκευὴν πᾶσαν φορῶν. οἱ δὲ ναῦται ἀπέπλευσαν εἰς Κόρινθον.

Shelmerdine Chapter 24 καὶ τότε δὴ μέγιστον θαῦμα ἐγένετο· δελφὶς γὰρ αὐτὸν ὑπολαβὼν ἐπόρευσεν εἰς γῆν. ὁ μὲν οὖν Ἀρίων ἐπόρευσατο εἰς Κόρινθον καὶ ἥκων πᾶν τὸ πρᾶγμα ἐξηγεῖτο τῷ Περιάνδρῳ· οὐκ ἐπίστευσεν ἐκείνῳ. τῶν δὲ ναυτῶν τέλος εἰς Κόρινθον πορευσαμένων, ἠρώτησεν ὁ τύραννος περὶ τοῦ Ἀρίωνος· λιπεῖν αὐτὸν ἔφασαν εὖ πράττοντα ἐν Τάραντι.
