Love learning Greek, but struggling with participles, adjectives!

Post by Nelleke »

Hi everyone,

I feel so blessed being able to learn biblical Greek, even at the age of (almost) 63...! I just finished a course parsing 2 John (on Udemy) and it was the first time I could really read and understand the text in it´s original language. I was over the moon...

But right now I´m diving into the different groups of adjectives, and participles. So I am writing down in full all declension charts for all different participles - even though I understand I can just use the 2-1-2 and 3-1-3 declensions of the adjectives. I think it will be less overwhelming this way; I don´t know what´s the best strategy yet. And as for the adjectives, I will also write down all the declension charts for irregular adjectives, like for μεγας and πολυς. I just hope there will not be too many of these.
