For those not familiar with analytical lexicons and why you should have the 3 main ones (hebrew/prepub, NT, and LXX):

- Logos knows the 'basic word' for many resources ... interlinears are the best example. If you right-click a greek word, it knows the basic form, and can look it up in your lexicons, do a word study, etc.  Very similar to Strongs.

- For most resources (monographs are the best example), Logos generally doesn't know the basic form, if you right-click a greek (soon, hebrew) word. You may get lucky. Or you need to know the language.

- An analytical lexicon knows the various forms of greek (or hebrew), and so can often help for resources Logos didn't tag.

- You're best to prioritize an analytical lexicon as the last choice (5th, since 5 are shown in the right-click menu). That way if Logos does recognize the form, it'll go to your favorite lexicon. If not, it'll find the analytical.

I personally am forced to used the syriac analytical lexicon ... I neither read the letters, nor the language.

Additionally, Logos (Rick) seems to be constantly improving them. Really good work.

Thanks, but these days is mostly Logos (Isaiah) doing the work on these. So he should get the kudos.

Note that most original language strings and many transliterated strings in commentaries *do* know the likely basic form if one has the Lemma in Passage dataset. It can't be searched directly in the commentary, but you can know it and even keylink on it. But Denise is correct; monographs (the most populous category in the library) generally have no knowledge of basic form / dictionary form / lemma. And that's where the Analytical Lexica can really help.
