Usage notes
As an enclitic, γε follows the single word that it affects, or if it affects a phrase or clause, follows the first word in the phrase or clause. Hence, when it modifies a substantive that has the article, it usually follows the article. In the following examples, phrases are underlined:



Because must always follow the first word in a clause, γε always follows δέ when it modifies the first phrase in the clause.



It may also attach to other particles, with a mild intensifying effect.
