ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὁ πρῶτος, "the first man" (ordinal number))
2. Predicate

What are Optative Verbs?
Verbs that express a wish.
* They don't use an augment, like other non-indicative moods
They are formed
* from the present and aorist stems
* by adding an iota or iota-eta (ι, ιη) to the variable vowel.
(μή γένοιτο, "May it never be!")
