Table of Greek Correlatives, with Explanatioris. 343 



prior to the relative in the order of nature, is shown by the use of 

 the interrogative in the indirect inquiry and as the indefinite, which 

 make, as it were, the transition to the relative. It is also shown by 

 the origin of the compound relative. — The relative pronoun has been 

 explained by some as equivalent to a personal pronoun preceded by 

 a copulative conjunction, and the Lat. qui (qicis) has even been deri- 

 ved from y.cxl and 6, or que and is. But the philosophical explanation 

 is inadequate, as the sentence introduced by the personal pronoun and 

 copulative conjunction, is co-ordinate, while that introduced by the 

 relative pronoun is subordinate, and the derivation has been better 

 explained above. 



Rem. 6. The simple relatives are sometimes employed as demon- 

 stratives. Thus oc, 2 Cor. 2 : 16. 



The VIII. column, which is complete, contains what are called 

 compound relatives. They are formed, I apprehend, by prefixing 6 

 or OS to interrogatives or indefinites of the later formations ; as oWtg 

 or oTig from t^j, dnorsgog from ndrsgog ; sometimes to those of the ear- 

 liest formation ; as onMg from xag. In use they appear not to differ 

 from the simple relatives ; except oang, which often has the force of 

 an universal. 



Rem. 7. The 7t, and t, of this column, are sometimes doubled for 

 the sake of increasing the quantity of the preceding syllable. 



The IX. column contains universals, which are formed from the 

 simple and compound relatives by certain syllabic adjections ; as 

 (1.) O.V or My, "perhaps, by chance ; (2.) /e, indeed, at least ; (3.) 8ri, 

 now, then ; (4.) drinoTs, now at any time ; (5.) drjnoxovv, now at any 

 time indeed ; (6.) y-s or xiv, i. q. av ; (7.) ovv, then ; (8.) ovv Sr^, then 

 indeed; [9.) nig, ever: (10.) ttot^, ever, at any time; (\\.) jkjovv, 

 any one then. 



Thus o's is strengthened or rendered an universal, by av or My, dri- 

 TCOTS, ici, TTSQ. — oaTig by oiv or My, yi, di], drjTTOie, dr/noTovv, ovv, nig, 

 noxi. — unSregog by oi>v, drpiors ; (comp. Lat. uter, strengthened by vis, 

 lihet, cunque, or by repeating uter.) — oaog is strengthened by av, dr^, 



dijnoTS, nig ondaog by drinors, oiv, rioovv. — olog by drpioxe, oliv 



onoTog by 8ri, di\noxe, drjnoxovv, ovv, ovv dr^ 6nTjl.ly.og by ovv oxv by 



ohv. — 6n6&ev by ovv. — onov by oiv onrj by oiv ondxs by ovv onug 



by oiv onocrdxig by oiv. 



The 1st series or row contains pure pronouns, as distinguished 

 from the other series, in which the pronominal idea is mixed with 

 something foreign. They are formed from the pronominal root by 

 the simple addition of the sign of case. For the sake of complete- 

 ness, we distinguish in the table the three genders of the nominative.
