Greek construct search results - analysis


Steven van der Hoeven

Recommended Posts

I want to investigate the following phrase: "αιωνας των αιωνων", mostly translated with "forever and ever".

I have set up a Greek construct search according to attached picture, and the results are nicely shown in red.

But when opening the analysis only the inflection αιωνας is given.

 

When I open a new tab and use the contents of the construct search as input, together with "αιων", see screenshot 2, then the results again are shown in red, but now the analysis does give all infections correctly.

 

Why is this? Looks like a bug to me.

When you use a multi part search, like the different columns in the construct, you actually have control over what Analysis information is displayed for which element. So, you set whichever elements you want for each column of the Set Analysis Display (Command-T). So consider the display settings (note the items in the 2nd column): Screen shot 2013-08-03 at 3.18.32 PM.png

 

Which lead to correct analysis:

If you are curious, the reason your second search included all the items in the first column is because the CONTENTS combined both construct columns into a single search element, so your first analysis column applied.
