Synopsis

Excerpt from An Introduction to the Greek Language: Containing an Outline of the Grammar, With Appropriate Exercises, for the Use of Schools and Private Learners

The atnhor may be permitted to say, that the leading principles of the Greek Grammar are here presented substantially in the manner in which he has for years taught them to his pupils. His custom is to go very slowly over the difi'erent tepics as they come up, delaying upon each until the student is perfectly master of it. In regard to the verb, espe. Cially, the object at which he uniformly aims, is, to give eaeh member of the class such a command of it, as that he can go through an entire verb, inflecting every part without mistake or hesitation. And this object he has generally found himself able to accomplish. Every student, of moderate abilities, in the course of a few weeks becomes able to give the indexions of the verb in all its voices, moods, and tedses, in the space of from five to ten minutes, stating or indicating every deviation from the regular forms. N o exercise, to which the author subjects his pupils.
