Athematic presents (and imperfects) are the easiest verbs of all because there is no thematic vowel (changing from o to e) to contract with the endings. So you just plug 'em in:
|
present = δυνα + be able, can
κει + lie, be put
επιστα + know (how) |
μαι σαι ται μεθα σθε νται σθαι (infinitive] |
|
imperfect = ε + δυνα + was/were able, could
ε + κει + was/were lying, lay
ἠπιστα + knew, understood |
μην σο το μεθα σθε ντο |
For the following forms, all present or imperfect, match the trans.
AND give singular for plural
|
δύνανται κείμεθα ἠπίστασο δυνάμεθα ἔκειντο δύνασθαι ἠπίστασθε ἐδυνάμεθα ἐπίστασθαι ἐδύνατο |
to know
we are able
we were able
you knew (impf)
he was able
they lay/were lying
to be able
y'all knew
they are able we lie (down)
