Search Inflections in Hebrew

I am looking for different inflections of hebrew verbs for parsing practice. Is it possible to group the same inflections together, despite their different little scribbles (I don't know the official name).

In the example I'd like to see 1,2,4 show up as one result and 3,6,7 as one, since they are the same inflections.

Is there any way to accomplish that?

Thanks for the help!

The necessary information (declension class, conjugation class) is not carried in Logos. It has been suggested Morphology Enhancement | Faithlife Feedback so you can vote to prioritize it.

Searching all resources for nikkud included definition:

Originally, the Hebrew Bible was written in a different alphabet than the one you will be learning. Scribes did not begin using the “square” Aramaic alphabet that is used in the Hebrew Bible today until the Babylonian Exile in the Fifth or Sixth Centuries BCE. Originally the Hebrew Bible was written with consonants only, i.e., without vowels. Many scholars believe that over time some of the consonants began to do double duty as vowels and were then added to the consonantal text as aides to pronunciation and clarity. You may wonder how any one could make sense of a language written without vowels. Can you read this sentence without any problem?

Does the n mean on or in? You will see that the same type of interpretation must often be made in Hebrew. You may also be interested to know that most Modern Hebrew is written with a bare minimum of vowels.

However, in the Tenth and Eleventh Centuries CE, Jewish scholars called the Masoretes /MAS-or-ites/ desired to add an apparatus to the text of the Hebrew Bible that would leave the consonantal text unmodified but would also specify the exact pronunciation of the Holy Text. The result was the system of dots, dashes, and other symbols that are written above, below, and in between the consonantal text.

DEFINITION: The system of dots, dashes, and other marks added to the consonantal text by the Masoretes is called the text’s nikkud. The nikkud consists of two parts, the vowel markings and a system of accent marks.

One idea is add Stem and Tam to group Morph Analysis results (can expand results to see Stem & Tam parsing in Logos Hebrew Morphology)

Screen shot shows some results have different Logos Hebrew Morphology parsing: e.g. jussive, construct (humanly not know Hebrew word formation so do not know how to interpret the differences).

It is never too late to learn Hebrew grammar!

I didn't know I could add more than one category. That is at least somewhat helpful since what I was looking for doesn't seem to exist yet.

Thankful for The Biblical Hebrew Companion for Bible Software Users that is helping me with exegetical insights for visual filter highlighting:

Hebrew verbal primary focus is kind of action while English primary focus is time of action. Greek verbal expression is primarily kind of action with secondary time of action.

I also included Person, Number and Gender for arrangement, so it now kind of puts all the same inflections together! Thanks for the help!
