AGE Unit 7 part 3: consonant verb stems

grouped according to their stems, so it is easier to
learn and remember their forms in the future tense.

Review from Unit 1: The Trouble with Sigma
Greek is strange when it comes to pronouncing and writing words
with the “s” sound:
• The combinations πσ, βσ & φσ never appear.
Instead, ψ replaces them.
• τ, δ and θ disappear before a σ.
• The combinations κσ, γσ or χσ never appear.
Instead, ξ replaces them.

VOCABULARY
• Because Greek verbs add a –σ to form the future tense,
the forms of the future often feature consonant
combinations with embedded sigmas.
• These combinations affect only the pronunciation, not the
meaning of the verb, but they do yield distinctive
spellings.
• This section introduces new verbs grouped by the type of
consonant that ends the stem, so that the forms of the
future all look similar, in order to help memorizing and
recalling this vocabulary.

• Α verb with a stem ending in a labial (-β, -π, -φ) will

VOCABULARY
• Α verb with a stem ending in a palatal (-γ, -κ, -χ) will
normally display a ξ in the future tense (γ, κ, χ + σ  ξ).
• Verbs with stems ending in -ττ/-σσ function the same way.
• Classical Attic used -ττ- but most other dialects, along with
Koine and later Greek, use -σσ-, but other than spelling and a
slight difference in pronunciation, the words are the same with
either spelling.
