17 cards covering all forms of αὐτός, -ή, -ό across all three genders, four cases, and two numbers.
Import ch7-autos-deck.txt directly into Anki (File → Import).
How to Use¶
- Front of card: inflected Greek form
- Back of card: part of speech + gender(s) + case + number + gloss
- Shared forms (e.g. αὐτοῦ = masc and neut gen sg) list all valid parsings
- No vocative — pronouns do not have a vocative in Greek
Three uses of αὐτός: 1. Personal pronoun — standing alone: he, she, it, they (NT frequency: 5,597×) 2. Intensive — in predicate position with a noun (no article between): himself, herself, itself, themselves 3. Identifying adjective — in attributive position (between article and noun): the same
All three uses share the same paradigm below. The distinction is positional, not morphological.

| 14 | αὐταῖς | dat | pl | to/for/with them (f) |
| 15 | αὐτάς | acc | pl | them (f) |
(Genitive plural αὐτῶν is shared with masculine and neuter — see card 6.)
Neuter — αὐτό, αὐτοῦ, τό (it)¶
| # | Front — Greek Form | Case | Number | Gloss |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 16 | αὐτό | nom / acc | sg | it |
| 17 | αὐτά | nom / acc | pl | they / them (n) |
(Genitive and dative forms are identical to masculine — αὐτοῦ, αὐτῷ, αὐτῶν, αὐτοῖς — see cards 2, 3, 6, 7.)
Note: αὐτό vs. αὐτός — the neuter drops the final sigma. This parallels τό vs. ὁ in the article.
