 * By far the most common word in the Greek NT. You might think that learning just one word can account 13% of the New Testament, but wait, the article changes because it has to agree with the gender, number and case of the noun it defines. Still, it is not all that difficult compared with typical European languages, and there are patterns to help memorising them.


 * Tips:
 * Masculine and Neuter Genitive and Dative are always the same
 * Genitive Plural is the same for all genders
 * Neuter Nominative and Accusative is always the same
 * Vocative is always the same "O holy night"
 * Dative always have a ι somewhere, subscripted or otherwise. i = indirect
