Primary stress is always indicated in multisyllabic words via an acute accent.
Primary stress is always indicated in multisyllabic words via an acute accent. Monosyllabic words do not indicate stress.


When a syllable with a false diphthong (i.e. αι, ει, οι, υι, αυ, ευ, ηυ) is stressed, the accent is always written on the second vowel letter.

====Notes on verb conjugation====
#Accent is recessive except in forms with fixed accent, which is indicated with an accent sign in the ending.
#In vowel initial verbs, the past prefix ε- changes form predictably based on the initial vowel as follows:
#*ε- + ε- > α-;
#*ε- is dropped before other front vowels (ι-, ει-, οι-, αι-, η-, υ-, υι-);
#*ε- > γι- before back vowels (α-, ο-, ω-, ου-).
#The future forms are also used as present subjunctive/jussive.

Introduction

Etymology

Modern Phrygian βρουζ̌ικιά vružigyá < Ancient Phrygian βρυγικά brugikā́ (cognate with Ancient Greek φρυγική pʰrygikḗ).

Features

  • PIE aspirated stops became plain voiced stops.
  • PIE voiced stops were devoiced in some conditions and preserved as voiced in others.
  • PIE voiceless stops were mostly preserved, but were aspirated in some conditions.
  • Like Greek, voiced and aspirated stops were later fricatized.
  • Initial w- preserved (as v-) except before o.
    • New w also became v, or f after voiceless consonants (e.g. βαίνα véna "hyena" < ουαίνα wéna < ύαινα (h)úaina; τφω tfo "two" < τουω two < τύω túō).
  • nt > nn
  • Early Vns > Vis
  • Early palatalization of velars before front vowels to alveolar fricatives.
  • All labiovelars became plain velars.
  • Second palatalization of velars before front vowels to postalveolars.
  • Third palatalization of velars adjacent to front vowels to palatals.
  • In obstruent clusters (except for s + consonant), the second consonant becomes a fricative.
    • Earlier /ʝ/ and /ç/ (from fricatization of original /i, e/ before other vowels) behaves as an obstruent in this situation, causing a preceding fricative to become a stop. They also become postalveolar after dental stops.
      • Note that this is often reversed by analogy.
    • The former also applies to /f/ and /v/ from fricatization of original /u/ before a vowel.
  • Assimilation of s to following voiceless consonant in consonant clusters (except word-initially, where metathesis occurs instead).
    • /ç/ (from fricatization of original /i, e/ after /s/ before other vowels) behaves as an obstruent in this situation, becoming a stop /c/. /sc/ then assimilates to /c/ intervocalically, while metathesizing to /kʃ/ initially.
      • Note that this is often reversed by analogy.
    • /f/ (from fricatization of original /u/ in the above positions) similarly becomes a stop /p/, which merges with /s/ intervocalically and metathesizes to /ps/ initially.
    • Loss of /s/ in /s/ + voiced consonant clusters
  • In obstruent + nasal clusters:
    • Intervocalically: obstruent becomes nasal
    • Initially: nasal becomes fricative (/n/ > /ʃ, ʒ/; /m/ > /f, v/) and obstruent becomes stop (if not one already).
  • In obstruent + /l/ clusters, /l/ becomes /ʃ, ʒ/ and obstruent becomes stop (if not one already).
  • Intervocalic partial voicing of non-geminated voiceless stops.
  • Voicing of voiceless stops after nasals
  • Loss of phonemic gemination, but traces preserved.
    • Lack of intervocalic voicing of original geminated stops.
    • Final -n > nasalization, but -nn > -n

Diphthongs and hiatus

Falling diphthongs are formed by following a non-high vowel with a high vowel.

The following falling diphthongs are possible:

Diphthongs
offglide→
nucleus↓ 		ι /i/ η /i/ υ /i/ ου /u/
α /a/ αϊ (άι) αη αϋ (άυ) αου
ε /e/ εϊ (έι) εη εϋ (έυ) εου
ο /o/ οϊ (όι) οη οϋ (όυ) οου
ω /o/ ωι ωη ωυ ωου

Vowels in hiatus may be pronounced as rising diphthongs if that the first vowel is a high vowel.

When two adjacent vowels that normally form a digraph are in hiatus or form a diphthong, this is indicated with a diaresis on the second vowel, which is invariably ⟨ι⟩ or ⟨υ⟩.

A diaresis is not used if the first vowel has an accent, since that precludes the possibility of it being a digraph.

A diaresis can also be used on unaccented ⟨ι⟩ before other vowels in order to indicate hiatus when it would otherwise be pronounced as a consonant. This can also be done with initial ⟨ου⟩ (which is written ⟨ο̈υ⟩), but the latter is rare.

Stress

Primary stress is always indicated in multisyllabic words via an acute accent. Monosyllabic words do not indicate stress.

When a syllable with a false diphthong (i.e. αι, ει, οι, υι, αυ, ευ, ηυ) is stressed, the accent is always written on the second vowel letter.

When a syllable with a true diphthong is stressed, the accent is written on the nucleus of the diphthong (i.e. the first vowel letter).

Morphology

Nouns

Nouns may be one of three genders: masculine, feminine, or neuter.

Cases

Nouns are declined for four cases:

  • Nominative
  • Genitive
  • Oblique
  • Vocative

The cases are used similarly as they are in Ancient Greek, with oblique covering the roles of accusative and dative. Most prepositions take an oblique object.

Stress

Nouns retain their stress on the same syllable throughout their declensions as far as possible.

There are a few irregular nouns that shift their stress.

Citation form

The citation form for most nouns is: nominative singular, genitive singular.

First declension (a-stems)

First declension nouns are most often feminine. Neuter first declension nouns are rare.

The endings are as follows:

First declension endings
Case Singular Plural
M F N M F N
Nominative -ας -α -αι -α
Genitive -ας -αν
Oblique -αν -α -αις -α
Vocative -α -αι -α

Second declension (o-stems)

Feminine second declension nouns are rare.

The endings are as follows:

Second declension endings
Case Singular Plural
M/F N M/F N
Nominative -ος -ο -οι -α
Genitive -ους -ουν
Oblique -ουν -ο -οις -α
Vocative -ε -ο -οι -α

Third declension

There are three sub-classes of third declension nouns: consonant stems, i-stems, and mixed stems.

Consonant stems

Consonant stems often have unpredictable nominative singular forms. These may alternate with forms in -ας (masc./fem.) or -α (neut.).

Consonant stem endings
Case Singular Plural
M/F N M/F N
Nominative -ας/-/... -α/-/... -ες -α
Genitive -ους -ουν
Oblique -αν -α/-/... -ες -α
Vocative -ας/-/... -α/-/... -ες -α
i-stems

Similarly to consonant stems, i-stems may have irregular nominative singular forms, which may alternate with regular forms.

i-stem endings
Case Singular Plural
M/F N M/F N
Nominative -ις/-/... -ι/-ος/-/... -ες -ια
Genitive -ιους -ιουν
Oblique -ιν -ι/-ος/-/... -ες -ια
Vocative -ις/-/... -ι/-ος/-/... -ες -ια
Mixed stems

Mixed stems are declined similarly to i-stems, but -ι- is dropped before vowels. Again, mixed stems may have irregular nominative singular forms.

Mixed stem endings
Case Singular Plural
M/F N M/F N
Nominative -ις/-/... -ι/-/... -ες -α
Genitive -ους -ουν
Oblique -ιν -ι/-/... -ες -α
Vocative -ις/-/... -ι/-/... -ες -α

Pronouns

Personal pronouns

Personal pronouns have strong and weak forms.

First and second person pronouns
Nominative Genitive Oblique Possessive
Strong Weak Strong Weak Strong Weak
1S εγιού γιου εμεύ μευ εμέ με μευός, -ά, -ό
2S ετού του ετεύ τευ ετέ τε τευός, -ά, -ό
1P ενές νες ενιούν νω ενές νω νωμός, -ά, -ό
2P εβές βες εβιούν βω εβές βω βωμός, -ά, -ό

Third person pronouns are declined as regular first/second declension adjectives with the following citation forms:

  • Strong: απθός, -ά, -ό
  • Weak: θος, -α, -ο
  • Reflexive: βαπθός, -ά, -ό

Definite article/pronoun

Declined as a 1st/2nd declension adjective: τος, τα, το.

Follows the substantive it modifies. Can also be used as an independent pronoun.

Indefinite pronoun

Declined as the definite pronoun with initial τ- replaced with κ-.

Relative pronoun

Declined as the definite pronoun with initial τ- replaced with γι-.

Demonstrative pronouns

  • Near demonstrative: σεμός, -ά, -ό
    • First/second declension
  • Middle demonstrative: σις, σα, σι, σους
    • First/third declension (mixed stem)
  • Far demonstrative: τόττος, -α, -ο
    • First/second declension

These can be used with a following noun or on their own.

Adjectives

First/second declension

Declined as second declension in masculine and neuter, and first declension in feminine.

This is the most common class of adjectives.

The citation form is masculine nominative singular, feminine nominative singular, neuter nominative singular.

Examples:

  • πρώτος, -α, -ο "first"

First/third declension

Declined as third declension in masculine and neuter, and first declension in feminine.

The citation form is masculine nominative singular, feminine nominative singular, neuter nominative singular, masculine/neuter genitive singular.

Examples:

  • ένας (εις), μια, εν, ένους "one"
  • αίδονας (αίδων), αίδοισα, αίδον, αίδονους "burning"

First declension

Declined as first declension in all genders.

The citation form is masculine nominative singular, feminine/neuter nominative singular, genitive singular.

Examples:

  • μέκας, μέκα, μέκας "big"

Second declension

Declined as second declension in all genders.

This class of adjectives is rare.

The citation form is masculine/feminine nominative singular, neuter nominative singular, genitive singular.

Third declension

Declined as third declension in all genders.

The citation form is normally masculine/feminine nominative singular, neuter nominative singular, genitive singular

The exceptions are the numerals τρες, τρια "three" and τσ̌έττερες, τσ̌έττερα "four", which do not have singular forms. Their citation forms are masculine/feminine nominative plural, neuter nominative plural.

Usage

Adjectives can be used in the following ways:

  1. Attributive: In this case, the adjective generally follows its noun. Alternatively, it may precede the noun.
  2. Predicative: Used as a predicate.
  3. Substantive: Used on its own without a noun, generally with a definite article.

Verbs

Notes on verb conjugation

  1. Accent is recessive except in forms with fixed accent, which is indicated with an accent sign in the ending.
  2. In vowel initial verbs, the past prefix ε- changes form predictably based on the initial vowel as follows:
    • ε- + ε- > α-;
    • ε- is dropped before other front vowels (ι-, ει-, οι-, αι-, η-, υ-, υι-);
    • ε- > γι- before back vowels (α-, ο-, ω-, ου-).
  3. The future forms are also used as present subjunctive/jussive.
