Full Screen (Interactive) Print / PDF Markdown

Twenty perfect indicative forms from GNT vocabulary. Students parse each form (tense, voice, mood, person, number), identify the reduplication type, provide the lexical form, and explain the combinative aspect in their translation. Selected items include second perfects (no κ), perfect middle/passive forms, and aorist distractors that look similar.
