Summary: Extremely useful tool to track down inflected verbs.
Comment: This handy little book contains a list of the inflected forms of common verbs in alphabetical (Greek) order.
It does not purport to explain or teach you anything, but if you happen across an inflected verb in a sentence and you cannot find it in your dictionary, try this book. The listed form might be aorist or imperfect, perfect or pluperfect. Find the verb that is afflicting you with woe and the central column in this book will tell you the tense, mood, form and number. The right hand column then gives you the dictionary form (first person singular present indicative active / deponent) which you can then look up in your conventional dictionary or lexicon.
I should stress that those students of Greek with some knowledge, say intermediate, will gain more benefit than complete beginners. Sometimes the form given in this book is not the identical one you are seeking (number might be different). But a little common sense will allow you to recognise the root, and then you can find the dictionary form as mentioned above.
I have found this book has become more and more useful as my foray into the world of Classical Greek becomes more ambitious.

Summary: not for beginners
Comment: if you are starting to learn Greek and looking for a book to give you conjugated verbs and their meaning, this is not it, all text is in ancient greek without translation.
DEFINITELY NOT for new learners.

Summary: I didn't realise it was Ancient Greek!
Comment: This book was incomprehensible to me. I've been studying Modern Greek for 3 years and wanted help with irregular verbs, but this book was no help at all...
Customer Rating:
Summary: An excellent source for students of Ancient Greek!
Comment: If like me, you have just got through learning all the grammar of Ancient Greek and are now starting on the real texts, then this book really is for you.
Learning vocabulary is one things but when it comes to Greek verbs it's so easy to get lost: some forms appear to bare no resemblence to the present!
However, don't worry, "All the Greek Verbs" provides a long list of over 13,000 verbs which you you may not recognise when you come accross in the text. Each verb is analysed, telling you all you need to know to accurately translate your text.

Summary: Marinone has done the work so you don't have to
Comment: This book is an essential for all students of ancient Greek who find looking up unrecognisable inflections of verb forms a boring hassle. All are listed, along with the simple present tense form from which they are derived. I cannot think what kept the author, N. Marinone, going...needless to say he is the only one to date to attempt this thankless task. Consequently some of the text is in his original Italian, but thankfully the abbreviations of the parsing need no translation, and the small amount which does is dealt with in the publisher's preface. This is an indispensible reference work.
