Distinguishing Breathing Mark/Accent Differences in a Lexeme Search

[HeatherM]

This is really a question about how Greek word searches (lexeme) work. When I do a

lexeme search on εἷς (one) in a Greek text (NA28) the search returns all occurrences of both εἷς (one) and εἰς (preposition, into). The only difference is the breathing marks/accent. Should the lexeme search on a Greek text distinguish between these two? Is there another way I can do the search that would distinguish them? Thanks.

If you precede your search with an equals sign (=) it will only find the exact form you specify, including accents and marks.

 

For example: =εἷς

Sorry for jumping in here, but I was just looking for possible ways to search also for iota subscript (e.g. λυθῇ) words. = doesn't seem to work. Any ideas?

λυθῇ is the inflected form (for the lexical form λύω), so be sure to surround your search with double quotes:

 

"=λυθῇ"

Thanks for the reply, Joel.  (Just finally getting back to my question.)
