20 An enclitic takes an accent
- a. If emphatic: ἀλλὰ σὲ καλῶ it's yοu I'm calling.
- b. If it begins a clause (being then always emphatic): φησὶ μέν he says, indeed.
- c. If the syllable next before is elided: ταῦτʼ ἐστί
for ταῦτά ἐστι.
- d. Also, a disyllabic enclitic takes the acute on the
ultima, if the word before it has an acute on the penult: λόγους τινάς.
- e. Ἔστι is written thus if it begins a clause, if it
means exists or is possible, and if it follows oὐκ, μή, εἰ,
ὡς, or καί.
