PART II : GRAMMATICAL NOTES
GREEK II. DECLENSION
In the second Greek declension we decline nouns that have3
:
Genitive sg. ending -ON
Nominative sg. ending -I
Gender N
Into this group of nouns fall different terms with general meaning (skeleton, i, n. skeletal frame,
skeleton), terms from anatomy (olecranon, i, n. olecranon, proximal end of ulna) as well as from
embryology and histology (amnion, ii, n. amnion; chorion, ii, n. chorion, embryon, ii, n.
embryo). These words preserve their original Greek ending –on in nom. sg. (and, as they are of
neuter gender, also in acc. sg.); all other endings are identical with Latin paradigm SEPTUM.
NOTE!
In some older anatomical publications you can still find group of nouns that have4
:
Genitive sg. ending -OS
Nominative sg. ending -I
Gender M
These words are no more in use in the Anatomical terminology (TA), but they are important for
the clinical terminology. Beside the nom. and acc. sg., all other endings of this paradigm are
identical with Latin paradigm NERVUS. We will return to these words later.
3
For the whole paradigm check the book p.10; chart with Latin and Greek declensions paradigm COLON.
4
For the whole paradigm check the book p.10; chart with Latin and Greek declensions paradigm NEPHROS.
