Hello, how can I make a filter where I find all the verbs that are and are used copulatively?

    bumping for visibility

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    Not in a filter, because you need a Syntax Search to identify these verbs e.g. Cascadia Syntax has a Verbal Complement (a Verbal Copula Function).

    Copulative use has challenge of implied (or understood) linking verbs:

    Visual filter possibility are copulative verb lemmas: e.g. εἰμί

    Morph search can find a Nominative word BEFORE a verb BEFORE another Nominative word (could be saved as a visual filter)

    (@DN OR @NN OR @R??N OR @V?????N) BEFORE 1 WORD @V BEFORE 1 WORD (@DN OR @NN OR @R??N OR @V?????N)

    Noticed 1 John 4:8 was not in results so searched for two Nominative Nouns followed by a verb (results have some copulative uses):

    @NN BEFORE 1 WORD @NN BEFORE 1 WORD @V
