Synopsis
Lessons Six through Eleven focused
on nouns, specifically first and second declension nouns. However, if it was not for another vital
part of speech, the adjective, nouns would lack vividness as to
definiteness, shape, size, quantity, color, and texture—words that
describe nouns that otherwise would be general or bland. An overview concerning adjectives is
first outlined in this lesson with an emphasis upon how they function in English before
comparing and contrasting their characteristics with those of Greek
adjectives.
Fifty-two MP3 audio files are used in conjunction with this
lesson.
At the conclusion of the lesson, a study guide
tests over the material presented.

Comprehensive Two-Terminal Adjective List
[PDF]
Instruction
Adjectives that exhibit two-terminal inflectional endings follow
second declension endings. Most feminine adjectives
belonging to this declension replicate the masculine endings,
however, a
few vary between two and three-terminal adjectives. All second declension two-terminal adjectives which
occur in NTGreek are listed with their frequency in parenthesis in
this study.
SA12:57-64
Comprehensive Three-Terminal Adjective List
[PDF]
Instruction
Unlike two-terminal adjectives, three-terminal adjectives decline
feminine adjectives using forms from the first declension.
Whereas most feminine adjectives exhibit separate inflectional
endings than masculine, a few vary between two and three-terminal
adjectives. Also, eight contracted three-terminal first and
second declension adjectives exist in NTGreek that receive special
attention at the end of this study.
