Searching for nouns in Analytical Greek New Testament
The Analytical Greek New Testament (Friberg morphology) has an unusual way of classifying pronouns. They are either tagged as a subcategory of nouns or adjectives.
The problem is, I cannot figure out how to search for a noun and to exclude the ones that are classified as pronouns. If I search for @N I get the pronouns as well as the nouns that he does not classify as pronouns. I tried @N NOTEQUALS @NP, but that returned nothing.
Does anyone know how to do this?
The reverse is also a problem. If I only want to find pronouns, how can I exclude the nouns that are not classified as pronouns?

Others may think of a better way, but I would do this: it would seem to me if you selected @NP, you are getting Nouns, with subcategory pronoun - this is all the pronouns.
Now, save that in a Passage List - default name is @NP in AGNT.
Then do a search of all Nouns, @N - this is all nouns and pronouns. Save that in a passage list.
Click on Merge - select @NP in AGNT as the list to merge with. Select Difference, which will remove all the items in this passage list, with all the pronouns in @NP in AGNT. This is all the true nouns.
Now you have a passage list of all Nouns, and the original passage list of all Pronouns, for whatever subset of the Bible (or whole Bible) you desire.
Does that work for you?

When you right-click on a noun in the AGNT, you'll probably see that the morph code is displayed (on the context menu) as N-DF-S (or similar). This is a clue that you can search for "@N-" in the Morph Search (unfortunately, the picker doesn't help here) and find morph codes that are not @NP, i.e., all the nouns but not pronouns.

Perfect. That is the hidden secret of Logos searching lore I was looking for. Too bad that it is not more obvious how to exclude this option from the morphology pop-up menu.
