344 Table of Greek Correlatives^ with Explanations. 



The 2d series cowisans adjectives of preference, which combine 

 the pronominal idea with that of number. They are a sort of com- 

 parative degree made from the pure pronoun, by adding reqog, (comp. 

 Sansc. taras, Zend, tara, Pers. ter, Lat. tervs, Slav, toryi, Lithuan. 

 frets.) Such formations are found in other Indo-European langua- 

 ges ; as Sansc. kataras, Lat. uter, neuter, alter, ceterus ; Slav, ho- 

 toryi ; Lithuan. katras, Goth, hwathar, Old Germ, huedar, Eng. 

 whether. Comp. also other similar forms in Greek ; as (xuqtoTeQog, 

 both ; licaTBQog, each of two, either. 



Rem. 8. It ought here to be observed, that just as the first series 

 gives rise to the other series by immediate derivation, so this series 

 in like manner has a variety of derivatives, which are analogous to 

 those of the first series, and form a kind of triple compounds. Thus 

 are derived I. from eteqoc, kregoTog, of another kind ; h^ga)&Ev, from 

 the other side ; hegad-E, on the other side ; Erigojcrs, to the other side ; 

 Irsga and kTigr^(f,i, in another way ; higug, otherwise, (whence ^te- 

 golcog, in another manner ;) sTEgdnig, at another time ; III. from no- 

 TEgog, ndxEgov, whether 1 noxigad-i, on which of the two sides 1 nori- 

 QO:)aE, to which of the two sides 1 noxigag, in which of two manners 1 

 V. from ovdhegog, oidsTigojd-Ev, from neither side ; ovdeTigmaE, to nei- 

 ther side ; oiSezsg^ag, in neither manner ; VI. from f^njdeiegog, jurjdsTE- 

 gcad-Ev, from neither side ; /nijdsTegcoaE, on neither side ; f^rjdhEgmg, in 

 neither manner ; VIII. from 6n6TEgog, onoTigoj&sv or onoTegwd-E, from 

 which side ; 6noTig(x}&i, on which side ; 6norego)aE, to which side ; oito- 

 regwg, in which of tioo ways ; IX. from onoTegoaovv^ onoTEgwd^Evovv, 

 from whichever side. The number of forms is in this way greatly 

 augmented. 



The 3d series contains adjectives of quantity. They appear to be 

 -formed by a reduplication of the pure pronoun; thus oao? from og. 

 Comp. Lat. quisquis, where the repetition denotes universality ; and 

 some cases in Hebrew, where the repetition denotes distribution. — 

 Xaog in the I. column has nearly lost its original import, and denotes 

 equal, like. — The other columns have the following shades of mean- 

 ing; (1.) concrete quantity, or magnitude; (2.) discrete quantity, or 

 number; (3.) time ; (4.) intensity ; (5.) more metaphorical significa- 

 tions. 



Rem. 9. From ndaog of the III. column are derived noaTog, of what 

 number? noo-xaiog, of what day? from 6n6aog of the VIIL column, 

 ondarog, of what number ; onoaraTog, of what day ; from onoaoaovv of 

 the IX. column, onoajoaovv , of whatsoever number ; thus helping, as 

 it were, to form new series of triple compounds. 



Rem. 10. The cr of this series is sometimes repeated for the sake 

 of increasing the quantity of the preceding syllable.
