Trying to add el:Κατηγορία:Μετοχές (ελληνικά) (Cat:Participles) and cannot. I get: Error: forbidden. Same with their page. sarri.greek (talk) 01:29, 19 February 2018 (UTC)sarri.greek (talk) 01:24, 19 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Their category is under el:Κατηγορία:Γραμματικές κατηγορίες (ελληνικά) (Grammatical categories), which does not have an equivalent, here in en.wiktionary. Here, Participles are placed under Verb forms. sarri.greek (talk) 22:15, 21 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

declinable indeclinable edit

@Sarri.greek The following text was moved from Template talk:el-participle of#declinable indeclinableSaltmarsh. 11:19, 6 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Saltmarsh, a note on categorization of Category:Greek participles. There could be a categorization

@Saltmarsh clarification. There is Category:Greek present participles which does not tell us if they are indeclinable or declinable. This should be split to
Category:Greek active present declinable participles (like παρών, τιμών)
Category:Greek active present indeclinable participles (like λύνοντας) --sarri.greek (talk) 06:22, 6 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Sarri.greek I think the decision is yours. If you decide what categories we need and create them, I will have to look at the HWL template with a view to displaying suitable text to match the category. — Saltmarsh. 05:42, 7 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Categories and templates edit

@Saltmarsh. Thanks boss, but the 'decision' is by de:w:Irene Philippaki-Warburton in the new textbook for greek schools. She makes a very first categorization in indeclinable, declinable. There are two more things for describing them: tense and voice.
I do not understand the Template:el-part, I do not understand how Categories are forms, where is |cat1= (I see cat2, cat3). I presume there would be

  • switch decl/indecl: declinable indeclinable (solely for present active participle; all the others are declinable) So it would be:
    • switch decl-voice-tense= present active indeclinable, present active declinable
  • switch tense: present past perfect
  • switch voice: active passive
  • switch voice-tense= [present active is covered from the above], present passive, past active, past passive, {RARE perfect active}, perfect passive
  • (switch manner= with augment, with reduplication) (solely for perfect passive ppp, IF such Cats are desired)
  • NOTE: There is always a possibility of NOT making other Categories except declinable and indeclinable.... and perhaps a Cat for 'learned'...

For their description from Template:participle of, with the word order you have chosen:
By VOICE:
The actives:

  • Tense participle of blahactive / of the ancient verb blahwhen modern is missing
    • Cats: present active indeclinable, {present active declinable}, {past active}, {perfect activeRARE}

The passives:

  • Tense participle of blahpassive, passive of blahactive
  • Passive tense participle of blahactive, when passive is missing
  • ..... participle of the compound with verb blahwhen there is no compound verb but only compound participle
  • ..... participle of the ancient verb blahwhen modern is missing
    • Cats: {present passive}, {past passive}, perfect passive (the modern ppp, MAIN cat with MANY participles), with learned subcats: {with augment}, {with reduplication}

By TENSE (M=modern - L={learned, ancient} often substantivized)
Present:

Past: (no modern) now Category:Greek past participles

Perfect: (now Category:Greek perfect participles implying perfect passive)

Never mind >>because it must retrofit with current pages<< They are too few, and I can redo them. --sarri.greek (talk) 10:48, 7 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
