Ἐγώ

ἐγώ (ego)

Gloss: I and other 1P pronouns

Strong's 1473

GK 1609

Frequency in New Testament 2584


 * Just like in English narrative texts, the 1P personal pronoun is likely to rank high in frequency, so ἐγώ ranks 7th among the most common word overall in the Greek NT. However, the 2P σύ pronoun actually ranks even higher in 4th position.
 * κἀγὼ "and I" is a common crasis.

Paradigm
Note the pairs ἐμοῦ (μου), ἐμοί (μοι), and ἐμέ (με). The accented forms mean the same as the unaccented form but are used when the writer wishes to be emphatic.
