まだSubjunctive
Subjunctive、Reading GreekのLanguage Survey sectionにまとめが出ていた。
As noted in 421 above (Optative), the subjunctive mood, in origin and still in the classical period, is used especially of events and situations viewed not as actual but as prospective or otherwise imagined. In several constructions, accordingly, the dividing line between the subjunctive and the future indicative can be rather fine on the whole, the difference is that the future indicative gives an impression of greater definiteness and certainty.
(i) In independent sentences
In independent sentences, the subjunctive is used only:
(a) in first person exhortations (ιωμεν 'let us go')
(b) in deliberative questions (τι ειπων 'what am I to say?')
(c) in prohibitions (aorist only) (μη με επιτριψῃς, ω Ερμη 'do not destroy me, Hermes')
(ii) In subordinate clauses
The subjunctive is found in many types of subordinate clause which hasve an indefinite or prospective sense, e.g.
(a) indefinite relative clauses with αν (282-3, 407[iii])
(b) indefinite clauses of time, place (etc.) with αν (282, 407[iii, v, vi])
(c) conditionals relating to the future (introduced by εαν, ην, αν) (282, 300, 402, 407[v-vi])
(d) 'fear' clauses relating to the future (293)
(e) 'purpose' clauses (sometimes with αν, though ινα 'in order that' never takes αν; ινα αν means 'wherever') (298)
Note
(i) Where αω accompanies a subjunctive, the particle will almost always come directly after the conjunction or relative introducing the clause (often the two fuse together ito one word, e.g. ὁταν, ἐἀν, ἐπειδάν).
(ii) In secondary sequence (299), the subjunctive in all these subordinate usages is generally replaced by the plain optative; this use of teh optative is NOT 'potential', and accordingly there is NO ἄν.
うう。結局、あちこち参照しないとだめじゃん。
この4日ほど、観劇やなんやでBGHを開かなかったら、すでに脳味噌から蒸発している。やっぱり、基礎段階では毎日触れてないとだめだなぁ。
あさってから、オープンユニバーシティのコースサイトがオープンするし、29日からはそのコースがスタートする。どうしてもそちらに時間を取られてしまうだろうから、それまでにできるだけ進んでおきたいのだが…。
そして、その後、どうやってギリシア語の勉強を続けていくか、きちんと考えておかないと昨年の二の舞で、なんとなくやらなくなって、せっかく覚えた事も忘れてしまう…。
