106 A GLOSSARY OF LATER 



§ 88. 

 The Moods with "Iva, "Ottq)?, '/2?. 



Syntactically considered, 'iva, that, negatively iva /x^', is a weak demonstrative pro- 

 noun of the neuter gender, denoting an object (or subject) not as an existing fact, but 

 simply as a conception. The verb subjoined to it is in logical apposition with it. 



In classical Greek it is followed by the subjunctive, or optative (except the future opta- 

 tive), and in certain cases by the imperfect or aorist indicative. 



In later and Byzantine Greek, it is followed also by the future optative, present indic- 

 ative, or future indicative. (See above § 84, 2.) 



The above remarks apply also to ottoj?, w?, negatively ottw? ^tj, «? yu,^', when they 

 are each equivalent to iva. 



1. In later and Byzantine Greek, after verbs signifying to desire, to wish, iva expresses 

 the immediate object of those verbs. After verbs signifying to command, request, decree, 

 compel, permit, teach, cause to do, and some others, it forms the immediate or remote 

 object of those verbs (as the case may be). The English here commonly employs the 

 infinitive. 



This use of 'iva and o'Trms is rare in classical, but very common in later and Byzan- 

 tine Greek. Od. 3, 19 AiacrecyOai he /jliv avTOV 'ottq)^ vTj/ieprea enrjj. 3, 327 AlcraeaOai he
