find all the participles, etc. in a given passage

Post by cornopean »

Here is another thing I wonder about. We often ask our students to highlight all the participles (and other noteworthy things) in a given passage. Since many of the Greek texts are already tagged for this, wouldn't it be relatively simple to perform a search that would highlight all the participles or perfect tense verbs, etc. in a given passage?

Thanks,

Greetings cornopean,
1. Use Bible search view
2. Input something like m/V-RAP-???
3. This will bring up perfect tense participles in about any form. If you change out R for P you should get present tense. If you want to find any possible form of Participle perhaps m/V-??P-??? may do it for you. Hope this helps.
4. There may be more info on the forum if you search for "morph searches"
