and writing correctly.
Human discourse is formed of letters,
syllables and words.
Letters are the elements of a syllable.
A syllable is either one letter, or the
union of letters.
A word is one or more syllables, which
express some thing.
The union of words to explain our thoughts
completely is called discourse.
The harmony of words with the rules of
Grammar is called Syntax.

A syllable may be also composed of six .
letters, as wbunkp , siamph. Jacpep, chiurph.
Two or three consonants are sometimes
formed before or after a vowel.
Double consonants at the end of a syllable
are pronounced short, as, wupp, darr, pur
qupp, caghack, —
When the word ends with double *%, in
the pronunciation an ¢ is inserted, as,
hiuuitin (fini) madnun, thats (bath)
tsiernun.
9
So also when in the beginning of a word
the same consonant is doubled, as, 220c4
(g-oac4) sShushoog. 4hag (4ehng) gugots.
‘When the liquids +, 4, ¢, are at the end
of a syllable after another consonant, they
have equally in the pronunciation the letter
p» as, Sri hjls (ich i) moogun. TTT (cm
uney ) asdugh. pacuunyy (qncunep) tooscler.
But not when they precede the conscnant,
as, gacian, coond. aqua, aghd. hugs gark.
Likewise when the consonants are difle-
rent, as, (Aacqi?, tooght. uncpep, soorpkh.
Sage » hoghmk.
In the beginning of many words between
two consonants the letter » is understood in
the oblique cases instead of another vowel
of the nominative case, as, &acfa, tzoogun.
huss (4- fuss) izugan. ufigun »mashd. Ppinrusheuy
(dpruns) mushdaga.

A noun signifies some substance, or qua-
lity, as, dupe, man. Ephfp, earth. pys, light.

In nouns six peculiarities are to be consi-
dered: Gender, Form, Species or Kind,

iuy2, Isaac's daughter, Yooupadfipacfun ,

tus’ daughter, etc.
FORM

The forms of the nouns are three: sim-


ple, as, eupy ,man: Accompanied by a par-
ticle before, as, «hufupy, inhuman: Com-
pee of entire words, as, Suppusste »human,
ind.
i4 7
The different modes of producing com-
pound epithets and words, are the trea-
sure and ornament of the Armenian lan-
guage; a thousand varieties of compounded
words may be made in this tongue as may
be perceived in the Armenian grammar pu-
blished 1815. : |
SPECIES or KIND

There are two kinds of words: Primi-


tive, aS, pq, man: and Derivative or De-
rived having at the termination a particle,
AS, ebessgrey
5wosh y human.
The Derivatives are most abundant in
the Armenian language.
NUMBER

Numbers are two: Singular, as, ciupz,


man: and Plural, as, supzp or diupy fh,
men.
The plural of some nouns is formed in
a particular manner, as, 4/%, woman, fas
tuyp, women. dump, convent, durinpuyp,
fuibopkuyp ov dutskpuyp, convents. gp or
rhe book, gpputh , books. whitish; y child,
boy, futishnfs, children, boys.
The proper nouns are sometimes made
plural with the particle ¢«%, as, Ophgaps
Gregory, Dphgenplutip ’ Greg ores. hep Sestte_
tubeu, John, §0dSutitipul-utup, Johns.
15

CASE

The cases in the Armenian language ac-


cording to the modern authors are ten in
number. |
4. Nominative, «ij, the man.
2. Genitive, stupyc, of the man.
3. Dative, diupyry or "fs diupy, to the man.
A, Accusative, gfupy, the man.
5. Ablative, ’ ups, from the man.
6. Narrative, gfiupycy , concerning the man.
7. Instrumental, fupqmf, by means of man.
8. Circumdative, geiupamd, about the man.
9. Commorative, ’'f seupe. or ’f hapa;
am the man.
10. Vocative, af supa, o man!
[tis to be remarked in this declension
that the second case is changed in the ter-
mination. The third in the termination, and
is then denominated the dative-declined-in
the-termination: and sometimes has before it
a letter or preposition, and is then called
the dative-with-the-preposition. The fourth
ease has before it the letter 4, which is
sometimes omitted or understood. The fifth
ease changes in the termination, and has
the letter or preposition ’; before it; or the
Jetter »when followed by a vowel. The sixth
ease likewise changes in the termination,
and has before it the tetter .. The seventh
ease changes in the termination. The eighth
ease also, and has before it the letter ..
™~

16
The ninth case has before it the letters ’,
or,;,and when changed in the termination
has always before it the same letter or pre-
position. The tenth case has before it the
interjection ~ or #4, but not always ex-
pressed.
According to the ancient authors the
cases are properly only six.
1. Nominative.
2. Genitive.
3. Dative.
. Accusative.
. Ablative.
Ot
Co
is. Instrumental.

And these will be followed in the present


grammar.

DECLENSION
Concerning the number of declensions
of the nouns the opinions of authors are ya-
rious: we will reckon ten dividing them into
two classes according to the grammar pu-
blished in 1815.
The first class contains six simple or re-
gular declensions, and the second four ma-
ed or irregular declensions: and they are
distinguished from the second and sixth
cases in this manner.

6. U.geuyfce ) with or by the kings.
It may be seen by this example that the
letters «,#,5, form the plural; but are not
always signs of the plural in the termination
of a word, as, puarqup, city. paw, light. Sug,
bread : which in the plural form puasqupp, ci-
ties. payup, the lights. gap, the loaves.
The third and fifth cases carry before
them the letter ;, when the noun begins with
a vowel, and the letter ’t, when the noun
begins with a consonant.
The cases are generally formed either by |
the addition of a vowel to the nominative,
as, gun, word, geunp, of the word, gb,
river, ghuny, of the river. qg¢hun, coat,
gy teusint. ’ of the coat. Spqgem) Tiridates,
Spyuumuy, of Tiridates: or by placing in
the termination of a word the vowel of the
last syllable, as, pepe ft, forger, pauses,
of the forger: or by omitting a vowel of
the last syllable, as, asakuit , tribunal, aunk
uf}, of the tribunal: or by exchanging one
>

19
vowel for another, as, upeupunky garden,
| syununfrgls, of the garden.
Some nouns have no singular, as, un.p,
~ glory. gupp, custom. génfup, hell. faenp,
idol. hump, life, Epkup, face. ugqoldp,
prayer, etc,
And others no plural, as, yayw, hope. ukp,

VERB
The verb signifies to be, to do, or to suf-
fer with tense, number and person. |
Five properties belong to the verb. Kind,
51
Tense or Time, Number, Person and Con-
jugation.

KIND

There are four kinds of verbs: Substan-


tive, Active, Passive, and Neutral.
The first denotes existence, as, £:/; I am.
gel; I do exist. The second action, as, an_
—&ukd; I do, I make. The third sufferance, as,
wn Lful; | am done or made. The fourth the
action subsisting in itself, as, ap/uaununfd; I
labour. gut, I go.
There is also another kind called Com-
mon, which signifies the action as well as
the sufferance, as, qusnful; I judge, and I
am judged.
TENSE

There are three tenses of the verb: the


Present, as, gp&/5 I write. Past, as, gpk
gl» 1 wrote: and Future, as, gpkgfgs I shall
write.
The past is either Imperfect, as, gp£A, I
was writing, or Perfect, as, gpkgf, I wrote.
The ancient grammarians add two other
perfect tenses: the Preter-perfect, as, ¢ pb uy
Ew, I have written, and the Preter-plu-per-
fect, as, gpkuy Ef, I had written: but these
tenses do not necessarily belong to the Ar-
menian language.
=
ee

I i,

NUMBER ~—

The verb has two numbers: Singular, as,


gpd; 1 write, and Plural, as, gpbup, we
write.
PERSON
The persons are three: First, as, gpk&d;
I write. Second, as, zp&u, thou writest. and
Third, as, gp&, he writes.
- CONJUGATION

The variation of a verb in it’s tenses,


numbers, and persons is called conjugation.
Conjugation is either Regular or Irregular.
Regular conjugation changes regularly in
the termination of the verb without any
omission.
The irregular conjugation wants some
tense or mood, and is called Defective; or
in some tense or mood deviates from the
rule, and is called Devious ; or wants the
first and second person, and is called Imper-
sonal.
MOODS OF THE VERB

The manner of signifying some action is


called the Mood. There are four in the re-
sular verbs: Indicative, Imperative, Sub-
junctive and Infinitive.
When the verb indicates some action, af-
firming it simply, it is called the indicative,
53
as, gpk,I write. gpkgp, I wrote. gpkghy,
I shall write.
When it commands or prohibits, it is call-
ed imperative, as, gpkui, write thou or do
thou write. uf gpkp, do thou write not.
When it expresses a suspended action, or
dependent upon another verb to complete
the sense, it is called subjunctive, as, £/#4&
gpbgkd, if I write. |
When one action is denoted without tense,
number or person, the mood is called infi-
nitive, as, gpé,, to write. |
_ The indicative has three tenses, with per-
sons and numbers. The imperative has two
tenses: present, and future; it has two num-
bers, but in the singular has no first person,
because he who speaks does not command
himself. However in the plural there is a
first person, because other persons are ad-
dressed and commanded.
The subjunctive has the numbers, and
persons perfect: but in the tenses has only
the present, and the future, because the Ar-—
menian language has not properly the past
tense of subjunctive.
The infinitive has neither tense, number,
nor person: whence it is used as a noun,
and declined in the singular, and is then >
called the Gerund.
Example.
SINGULAR

1. 4p,» to write.
2. Upkyy, of writing.
3+ Qpkyy orf gpk, to writing.
A. gVpk,, the writing.
3. /f Gpkpy, from writing.
6. 4.p£;m/, with or by writing, writing.
The Conjugations of the verbs are four,
and are distinguished by the last vowels of
their indicatives, which are, £, #, »=, f-
The indicative of the first conjugation
ends with the vowel t, as, 2up¢t45 I move ;
of the second with #, as, pacusiud, I wash ;
of the third with », as, g&q--; I pour
out; of the fourth with f£, as, acuuwtd; I
learn.
Every conjugation although different in
its moods, tenses, numbers and persons,
preserves the first syllable of it’s indicative,
excepting such verbs as are Devious.
Every person and tense of the verb end-
ing in « or, is plural. ¥ is the sign of the
first and second person, and * of the third;
provided only that + be not the article dis-
tinctive of the person, because it then would
be singular.
Every verb which terminates in J, is in
the first person; in «, is in the second per-
son; verbs ending in ¢ or y» are in the first
D0
or second person; verbs ending in £y w=,
aw, or #4,in the third person; and those
terminating iny, are in the second and third
person.
In every conjugation the future of the in-
dicative is formed by adding the letter 5 to
the perfect, as, qupdtEgf: I moved, Quart f=
ghy, 1 shall move. pacamp, I washed, paca
ghz 1 shall wash. $&qb, I poured out, $b
alg, 1 shall pour out. neuw,, I learned, acc
uuyg, 1 shall learn.

PARTICIPLE

The participle is formed by adding to


the termination of the verb the particles »,
or o, (sign of the present), t~, (sign of the
past) ;-» or ,t (sign of the future).
As a verb it has tense, and as a noun;
cases and numbers.

PREPOSITION

A preposition is an indeclinable word or


particle which placed before a noun changes
either it’s case, or it’s signification.
The prepositions which change the cases
of nouns are called Formers of cases.
The prepositions which change the mean-
ing of nouns by governing their cases, are
called Rulers of cases.
Prepositions '},),’s yand «= ’f form the
Dative and the Ablative.
<}>'ty are placed before the vowels.
l= forms the Dative. :
) forms the Dative. Before a consonant
it ispronounced se» AS, spxbye
O- forms the Accusative. Before a con-
sonant it was formerly pronounced y¢> but
at present it is pronounced py.
[‘+ forms the Dative and the Ablative.
According to the modern usage the Prepo-
sitions forming the cases95 5 and + are writ-
ten prefixed and joined to nouns, and the
olhers detached from them.

SYNTAX

Syntax is the due conjunction or con-


nexion of the parts of speech.
Substantives agree with each other in
three ways.
4. When another substantive is added to
express and explain the former more fully,
as, RB heron cones oe maw epee Sait bpd. with
Cleopatra his daughter. Gar qlqk=smp« py,
memewe fen. he has given Cleopatra his
daughter. GpRkp ys;berk beprules yer
nd eh hepuy fit. to visit his brethren the
children of Israel.
2. When one thing is said to belong to
another, as, Gépp Supp Deumeut Pape
annus apeerny ora ape ny ULE rw aw dam.
the book of the generation of Jesus Christ,
the son of David, the son of Abraam. Suyft
flusyac(d fri anupl-uy pis tyyoopperem [leEweseleQt wn’
gave the apostles witness of the resurrection
of the Lord.
3. When a substantive or gerund like a
verb governs another substantive, as, 84a
ids sgheedad otTale addead Gob yn nw [TeLeste Xo thupunne [dustin
after that we have received the knowledge of
the truth. {Aeon soeSm [lefts acuncguitlee "hetc
whofe” oping hs 2b [P-aftaun ustE Tussle 2 pbuye
120
Ei. thou teachest all the Jews which are
among the Gentiles to forsake Moses. Pruyg
prynpenjyh Gayhayen(linh of (Paggh- but the
blasphemy. against the (Holy) Ghost shall
not be forgiven.

Substantives agree with Adjectives when


governed by the same, as, hq Sumuhwpeps
lub fu auth: app uf” eperustithe- geile « unto us
they did minister the things, which are now
reported. GStngqu esLstL2f3 EfA12.p « disobedient

tience. Ge L$ h sb) E-nfigfs dbp Te

The Comparatives govern generally the
Accusative wilh the preposition s#*%, as, 94

_
‘ :‘ Oz =

i231
heupttqopwmnpmdpese auth oly Eegkp. for thou
art much mightier than we. (Jrs 46% 42 ed
‘nets E annin. a greater than Jonas is here.
Also the Middle nouns govern different
cases, as, Usa U.ged? Eqt fept- yh + Gud.
behold, the man (Adam) is become as one
of us. ie upp luge quads fer ‘bh Beets ect 508_
Steg. how can he be clean that 1s born of a

one of us. QO ey £95 im wsb ay woeleape ng untrufr.
but other of the Apostles saw I none.

CONCORDANCE OF ADJECTIVES WITH


SUBSTANTIVES

1. The adjective may be placed before


or after the substantive; joined, or divided
from it.
2. The adjective may or may not be of the
same case or number with the substantive.
3. The governing preposition may be
placed either before the substantive or adjec-
tive, or before both being repeated.

jE pugs upon some mountain.

Notwithstanding the great licence in the


use of adjectives the following rules must
be generally observed.
1. The adjective placed after the sub-
stantive must agree with it in number and
case, as, purple p di Sunlk- Sop ; with great
siones. qgopaeld firtup wyuupufp » such nughty
works.
2. The adjective placed before a substan-
live does not agree with it, excepting the
monosyllable adjectives, as, dé-Sudi-S& pus
pulp , with great stones. uspuupprufs qopne,
(Phip, such mighty works, wyode eutipeg »
125
with other words. ’f upeaw nkgqea, in the
holy place.
3. When a. verb or participle is before
the substantive and after the adjective, the
adjective agrees readily with the substantive,
as, mune aspuen] glut gopne[d-Funlp , he
armeth with divine force. essen Ses flcied ofr
thay gopae[d Funke ) armed with divine fe
orce.
A. An adjective with the article or the
letter distinctive of the person, placed before
a substantive, agrees with it in number and
in case, but not always, aS, JeSunt hus
eniuple pnifis Le whdEniuy apo funputiusch , by

a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not


made with hands.
5. When there are many substantives be-
fore one adjective only, the adjective is in
the plural, and agrees with them, as, Yes
encghe Soiftunl[d-uft ubpljhp Lb gkokogbhp
puyleyaes.p Saul and Jonathan (were) lovely
and pleasant.
6. The governing preposition Is joined to
the case which precedes it, whether sub-
stantive or adjective, as, putin uttrleeay pb | oe
uk, from the mount called. ’f shupysy ak
quacopl, thigucnpl, , from the deceitful and
unjust man,
7. When the adjectives or substantives
placed before are joined with the conjunction
t-, and, the governing preposition is applied
to all, as, juttley & L putaponn fe putts as
rau Funutgoald ft, to an inheritance
126
incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth
not away - 'f Stungqguigaeld fcr fe bh Sb qacifi
apl-uint ,unto obedience and sprinkling of
the blood.
8. When the adjective or substantive
placed before is simple, and many substan-
lives or adjectives follow, the governing pre-
position governs the first word, and the se-
cond and third which follow; however not
always, as “A sup funpspypags (fp eutify be
"bb gopsay, from evil thoughts, words, and
wor ks. qeayyy wpptimsky be quibeuengy the
bloody and deceitful man.

CONCORDANCE
OF PRONOUNS

CONCORDANCE OF VERB

The verb which is not a participle, or


infinitive, is governed by a nominative, as,
:

and the earth. Ge Ephbp bp atukphajld- be

form, and vaid. Ge Lagh Yeu Sy rep
'b dE puy Jacpg, and the Spirit of God moved
upon the face of the waters.
The participle and the infinitive are often
governed by a genilive, as, Yafu Stashfi,
alfiiss ste LE thin krusy wun. ‘snus fib upuspdusg
they are delivered ere the midwives come in
unto them. PeeetZecsy Eplufyg fh [Suttle ga
peu a) oe fe ad Ausjls Jephupy > the

heaven was opened, and the Holy Ghost de-


scended.... and a voice came from heaven.
In like manner are governed the preter-
perfect, and the preter-plu-perfect tenses
formed by a participle, and a substantiveverb,
as, Ge as gpnbp Bushode [dE (pespEyusy

knew not that Rachel had stolen them. rea
pute gape buy & Dili fb haguill usipuiieg PT oe
wb pul gpurniuunch there lie in wait for him
of them more than forty men.
The accusative cannot properly govern a
verb, but is subject to it, as, Ge apg apade
Sfuoolt ary E-fp Yeunedoa ; ng wespunfilp Sus
Sip fry nuljeny® Te wp u[d-1 fut” paphs

‘nfutung, forasmuch then as we are the off-
spring of God, we ought not to think that
the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or
stone, graven by art and man’s device.
‘The nominative of nouns agrees gene-
139
rally in number with a verb which is nota
participle or infinitive, excepting those with-
out singular number, or collective, as, Bu
pee euify tse yt ng Xuituusl fits Ser 3 there

arose another generation after them, which

. guage. Be Angaidacpyts uslfis acl Supa

the people waited for Zacharias, and mar-
velled that he tarried so long.
The nouns joined with the conjunction &,
and sometimes agree, sometimes not, as, be

acgnp i. E>p,and the man increased excee-


dingly, and had much cattle, and maid-ser-
vants, and men-servants, and camels, and
asses. baka ff cusp Seas17.h nsfucs fe Foe» Ser

_ When the noun or, pronoun is only one,
ihe verb must be ofthe same person, as, Gu
dfuuji Fireg Frey Eh Se unpus nop Efi, I was
left alone ; where had they been?
- When the persons are different the verb
agrees with the first, as, Qpaspid geuygl-dp

Sometimes the verb is supposed, as, Ee
fuse, Le pa uunkeg Shs lef he ynpop ab
ning pay ulkukpfi dip, we are the clay,
and thou our Potter; and we all are the
work of thy hand.
The verb active governs generally the ac-
cusative, as, Ge exspoass yt Jeans quip

eu preusyt glu. eu fr fe Ey eis sessgt gunuus , sO


God created man in his own image; in the
image of God created he him; male and fe-

ed a garden eastward im Eden; and there

to all, life, and breath, and all things. Ge
wit. lp: 'h hogy Laps ; he Eby pur usplaps is p
du, and he took one of his ribs, and closed
up the flesh instead thereof.
The verb active governs secondly another
accusalive, as, hac ga untku gpkg, whom
makest thou thyself? ly oe qo wukt
155
qGpunce ,saying that there is another king,
one Jesus.
The verbs active as well as the neuter and
passive govern often their roots in the accu-
salive, as, Usp jusfol tahoe ufspl-ofs gpg
I have loved thee with an everlasting love.
Ueiiuskugkt qudof[d-di-S, they shall be great-
ly ashamed.
The verb passive governs generally the
ablative, as, Of (99 op mui gisele 'h Gf
uG ,that it might be fulfilled which was spok-
en of the Lord. a fb mun witunfs owns
Muinush, for the tree is known by his fruit.
Awash gpl, b Xatasfl zplagu, |

The infinitive sometimes is noun, and
sometimes verb.
The preposition ’; put before an infinitive
has often the signification of an adverb j»,.
gud’, Shs y when as, “pb wk-uutisk je q.plg
ef phpkugh’f dune pep, when he seeth thee,
he will be glad in his heart.
The infinitive or the gerund with its verb
increases the signification of it, as, f\ethy
