within Logos it seems to default to "active"….whereas eimi has no voice and the option to select none is not there.
"Most standard Greek morphologies classify εἰμί as using active voice endings where voice is marked, though traditional school grammars often downplay or ignore “voice” for εἰμί because it is copular and intransitive. There is a strand of description in pedagogical and popular materials that effectively treats εἰμί as “voice-less” for practical purposes, but explicit claims that it has no voice at all are more informal positions than a formal category in major reference morphologies."
well, thats interesting.. I'm just in the middle… at koineguide.com is where the greek guru there said; "
That can be confusing for sure, but eimi technically doesn’t have voice. “None” is the right answer for the voice field for every instance of eimi! 8)" i challenged him due to what LOGOS show me. EVEN give screen shots..
Not a "greek guru" but a person who may know Greek extremely well but doesn't know their linguistics/grammar/syntax - but is sufficient gullible to have accepted what they were taught without asking if it were the majority position.

I don't often want to copy the entire…
The read-aloud feature (which is wonderful) needs work so that it scrolls and keeps reading instead of starting over and over.
Release a version of Logos that runs natively on ARM-based Windows 10 devices, such as the Surface Pro X. Emulation of Windows x64 apps is not currently supported on ARM64, so Logos doesn't run at all. Even when it is supported, a native ARM64 version should be faster.
Hi, I created this tool using GeminiAI for convenience that can update pages when the day is out of sync as some pages of the resources contains more than 1 page. I'm not sure if it's too overkill or there's already a way to do it that I'm not aware of but err just sharing this out to anyone that needs it. For example I…
I know that Linux does not make up a huge portion of the OS market share right now. But with the recent Windows-is-literally-becoming-spyware-malware-AND-ransomware shenanigans, I think it is high time to add official Linux support. Linux useage has increased substantially in the last year or two; and it is going to…
