Syntatic force

Christian Alexander

What is syntatic force in Logos? How does this term work within the Logos dataset? This term seems to be like a complex feature of many different Greek forms. I have searched for definitions in Logos but cannot find anything. Its near meaning seems to come up more often in searches, so I believe it must be connected to a lot of different terms. Its true significance is still unknown to me. This Logos site did not really explain the use and meaning of the term. https://www.logos.com/features/syntactic-force

These are good links. Thanks. I try to look for academic cites. I do not like Google because of its indecisiveness and judgement. I was looking for something that could be cited in a discussion.

If you want the definition used by Logos, look within Logos. If you want the broader range of definitions used academical, use the academic papers. Don't assume the two definitions are the same.

Syntactic Force — certain New Testament versions may display another category just after the morph characteristics. The portion to the right of the pipe character ("|") describes the grammatical/syntactic role the word plays in the verse (for example, "vocative" or "double accusative") according to the Lexham Syntactic Greek New Testament. Click the syntactic force category to open the associated glossary, or hover over it to view the definition in a popup.
