The vocative of the words in os commonly ends in , but 

 often, especially in adjectives and participles, in e ; as u <pi\f, 

 also o> <iAoj ; but Of ot, like the Latin Deus, makes no change in 

 the vocative. 



Aa in Latin noons in urn, the Greek neuters in ov have the 

 same ending namely, ov in the nominative, the accusative, and 

 the vocative; and this, too, in the plural as well as in the singu- 

 lar namely, in a. 



The models just given are followed by adjectives in os (m.), 

 ov (n.), as 07060; (ayaflrj [f.], like tho first declension), 07060^; 

 AH appears in the following

The foregoing relates to adjectives of three terminations. 

 Adjectives of two terminations are also declined in the same 

 manner namely, such as end in os, m. and f., and ov, n., as 

 *ayica\os, trayKa\ov, entirely beautiful : for example, o ira7/coAoy 

 \o7os, tho entirely beautiful speech ; TO ieayKa\ov TIKVOV, the 

 entirely beautiful child. 



N.B. It must be well remembered that adjectives of two 

 terminations are generally Compounds or Derivatives. 



For the sake of practice, I here subjoin an example of an 

 adjective of three terminations, and one of two terminations, ad- 

 rising you to learn them horizontally as well as perpendicularly. 



ADJECTIVES OF THREE AND TWO TERMINATIONS, LIKE THE 

 FIRST AND SECOND DECLENSIONS.

 stand that Greek nouns in the neater plural require their

EXERCISE 12. ENOLISH-GRXEK. 



1. Good men obey God. 2. Bad men obey not God. 3. O

 Good men take care of their (the) children. 7. Trust not the 

 word of a liar. O dear boy. 8. Danger follows many words. 

 !. Good youths honour their (the) teachers. 



Remarks. Tho Greeks are fond of such an arrangement of 

 words as is found in the phrase TOI? TOV SiSao-xoAov A 070*5. 

 given above. Literally, and in the Greek order, the words run 

 the of the teacher words; that is, the words of the teacher. 

 Imitate this construction. In general, the Greek order of words 

 approaches more nearly to tho English than does the Tatin. 

 The sense, however, logically considered, prevails over other con- 

 siderations in the Greek collocation of words. The chief place 

 of emphasis is the commencement of a sentence, the next is the 

 end. Not by any mere rule can the beginner acquire the tact 

 of placing the Greek words in their idiomatic order. Of coarse 

 he will study to do his best, and from attention to the sentences 

 given in the exercises, and making them, as far as possible, 

 models, he may learn much and make an approach to correct- 

 ness ; but, after all, nothing but a long and careful study of the 

 writings of the classics themselves can give him complete skill. 

 The student, however, is especially requested to note what u 

 called the emphatic collocation of the adjective with its noon 

 where the adjective and noun have each an article, in the follow- 

 ing order : article, noun, article, adjective, as in TO quits T 

 oA7)0iror, the light, the true light (John i. 9). With this we 

 may compare in English (especially in poetry) the repetition of 

 a noun with the adjective for the sake of emphasis, as in Shake- 

 speare " Farewell, a long farewell ; " "A frost, a killing frost."
