This week's guest questioner is Herbert Weir Smyth, whose famous Greek grammar has been the standard in English for over 80 years.  Answer the questions, and give the section number of Smyth's grammar where you found the answer (for questions 1-4).  This week's winner will get 3 extra points on the Big Quiz this Friday.  The deadline is next Monday (11/22) at 9:30 a.m.
 
 

The answers to questions 1-4 can be found in my grammar.  The last two questions are about me.

1)  Is the article used with the names of nations?
 

2)  What are the oblique cases?
 

3) Often a vocative noun has an omega in front of it, which is sometimes (although not very correctly) translated as "Oh."
What does the vocative without this omega express?
 

4) How many surd consonants does Greek have?
 

5) Where did I teach before I taught at Harvard?
 

6)  I was the second Sather lecturer.  What are the Sather lectures?
