Lesson 40

Question 1

αἱρέω, αἱρήσω, εἷλον (stem = ἑλ-),

ᾕρηκα, ᾕρημαι, ᾑρέθην

Answer 1

take; (mid.) choose [cf. heresy]
ᾑρέθη βασιλεύς = “he was chosen [as] king”; αὐτὸν βασιλέᾱ εἵλοντο = “they chose him [as] king.” In factitive sentences like these, no word for “as” is needed.

Question 2

εἶμι, —, —, —, —, —

Answer 2

go, come, travel

Question 3

ἔρχομαι, ἐλεύσομαι, ἦλθον (imper. ἐλθέ—irreg. accent in sg. [cf. εἰπέ, εὑρέ, ἰδέ, λαβέ]), ἐλήλυθα, —, —

Answer 3

suffer, experience; κακῶς/εὖ πάσχειν = be treated badly/ well, fare badly/well
This verb has three different stems: πενθ-, πονθ-, and παθ-. The present stem πασχ- is derived from παθ-σκ- (θ drops out, κ is roughened). Note that the deponent future of πάσχω (= πείσομαι “I shall suffer”) and the middle future of πείθω (= πείσομαι “I shall obey”) are identical in form.
