Usage notes
Attic Greek: The present indicative (but not the other moods) has a future meaning: "I will go". The rest of the moods and tenses supply verb with Present subjunctive, optative, and with Imperfect. (Also, see ). ᾖα etc. are old preterites and can therefore be used with either aorist or imperfective aspect.
