Case: Accusative

This is a drill to help you practice the accusative case of first and second declension nouns. First, make sure you have studied the first declension noun endings and the second declension noun endings. Then you will be ready to try this exercise.

First, practice with feminine singular:

βλέπουσι __________	γῆ	βλέπουσι γῆν	They see land.
βλέπει __________	δόξα	βλέπει δόξαν	She sees glory.
βλέπεις __________	θάλασσα	βλέπεις θάλασσαν	You see a sea.

Then try feminine plural:

βλέπεις __________	βασιλείαι	βλέπεις βασιλείας	You see kingdoms.
βλέπομεν __________	ἐκκλησίαι	βλέπομεν ἐκκλησίας	We see assemblies.
βλέπει __________	ἀδελφαί	βλέπει ἀδελφάς	He sees sisters.

Then try both feminine forms (pay attention to whether the prompt is singular or plural!):

βλέπουσι __________	γῆ	βλέπουσι γῆν	They see land.
βλέπεις __________	βασιλείαι	βλέπεις βασιλείας	You see kingdoms.
βλέπομεν __________	ἐκκλησίαι	βλέπομεν ἐκκλησίας	We see assemblies.
βλέπει __________	δόξα	βλέπει δόξαν	She sees glory.
βλέπει __________	ἀδελφαί	βλέπει ἀδελφάς	He sees sisters.
βλέπεις __________	θάλασσα	βλέπεις θάλασσαν	You see a sea.

Then try masculine singular:

βλέπουσι __________	θεός	βλέπουσι θεόν	They see God.
βλέπει __________	δοῦλος	βλέπει δοῦλον	She sees a slave.
βλέπετε __________	οὐρανός	βλέπετε οὐρανόν	You see heaven.

Then try masculine plural:

βλέπεις __________	οἶκοι	βλέπεις οἴκους	You see houses.
βλέπω __________	ἄνθρωποι	βλέπω ἀνθρώπους	I see people.
βλέπομεν __________	ἀδελφόι	βλέπομεν ἀδελφούς	We see brothers.

Then try both masculine forms (pay attention to whether the prompt is singular or plural!):

βλέπουσι __________	θεός	βλέπουσι θεόν	They see God.
βλέπεις __________	οἶκοι	βλέπεις οἴκους	You see houses.
βλέπω __________	ἄνθρωποι	βλέπω ἀνθρώπους	I see people.
βλέπει __________	δοῦλος	βλέπει δοῦλον	She sees a slave.
βλέπετε __________	οὐρανός	βλέπετε οὐρανόν	You see heaven.
βλέπομεν __________	ἀδελφόι	βλέπομεν ἀδελφούς	We see brothers.

Then do neuter singular and plural (neuters are easy, because nominative and accusative are the same!):

βλέπουσι __________	τέκνον	βλέπουσι τέκνον	They see a child.
βλέπεις __________	τέκνα	βλέπεις τέκνα	You see children.
βλέπω __________	ἔργα	βλέπω ἔργα	I see works.

Then try them all together! There is a printable form of this chart which you can use for practice in both reading and writing.

βλέπουσι __________	θεός	βλέπουσι θεόν	They see God.
βλέπουσι __________	γῆ	βλέπουσι γῆν	They see land.
βλέπεις __________	βασιλείαι	βλέπεις βασιλείας	You see kingdoms.
βλέπουσι __________	τέκνον	βλέπουσι τέκνον	They see a child.
βλέπεις __________	οἶκοι	βλέπεις οἴκους	You see houses.
βλέπω __________	ἄνθρωποι	βλέπω ἀνθρώπους	I see people.
βλέπει __________	δόξα	βλέπει δόξαν	She sees glory.
βλέπει __________	ἀδελφαί	βλέπει ἀδελφάς	He sees sisters.
βλέπω __________	ἔργα	βλέπω ἔργα	I see works.
βλέπει __________	δοῦλος	βλέπει δοῦλον	She sees a slave.
βλέπομεν __________	ἐκκλησίαι	βλέπομεν ἐκκλησίας	We see assemblies.

βλέπεις __________	θάλασσα	βλέπεις θάλασσαν	You see a sea.
βλέπομεν __________	ἀδελφόι	βλέπομεν ἀδελφούς	We see brothers.
