I am trying to find every occurrence of iva followed by subjunctive followed by infinitive. How would I do this search?

    A Morph Search for lemma:ἵνα BEFORE @V??S  BEFORE @V??N should do it

    Robert,

    If I guess at what you were actually looking for, it was a complementary infinitive construction after a ἱνα...but I think Graham's search hits what you actually requested (and I may be misreading your intent.)

    To find complementary infinitives using a subjunctive, I used Cascadia. Through various other searches I found Luke 6:7 and used it as a model to build the below.

    Sometimes the syntax graphs seem to encode similar structures in slightly different ways.  My guess is that this search may miss some results -- whereas Graham's morph would have more results to comb through but probably won't miss anything.

    Mike
