Lesson 8 | Third Noun Pattern
Guided Practice: Rom 1:5-6
Let’s work on identifying third pattern nouns as we translate a couple of verses. For this step and the next:
Read the text aloud.
Parse all the nouns, identifying case, gender, number, and lexical form. Also, identify which pattern each noun follows.
Do this either verbally or using a piece of scratch paper.
Diagram and translate the text by using our five-step process.
Clauses: Divide the text into clauses
Main Verb: Identify the main verb
Subject: Identify the verb’s subject
Object: Identify the verb’s object (or predicate nominative)
Extras: Identify and diagram the remaining parts
A genitive noun should go with its head noun
Keep prepositional phrases together

Finally, let us remind you one more time that you can check the definition of words you do not know by clicking on the verse number and then on the word under the Greek Inline tab.
