@ -268,7 +268,7 @@ The 1st Perfect Active Indicative for a verb is formed by using:
This is known as “vocalic reduplication” and is the same as with the aorist or imperfect tenses. The tense formative “κα” will make it clear that this is a perfect tense verb and not an aorist or imperfect tense verb. For example: αἴρω -> ἧρκα (I have raised up)
(b) Exception: Verbs that begin with a diphthong may or may not lengthen. For Example: εὐλογέω -> εὐλόγηκα (I have blessed)
(c) For aspirated verbs that begin with a phi(φ), xi (χ), or theta (θ) in the third column of the `Square of Stops Table <https://ugg.readthedocs.io/en/latest/paradigms.html#table-11-square-of-stops>`_. The reduplication will cause the consonant to lose its aspiration. Therefore, the phi will change to a pi (π), the xi to a kapa (κ), and the theta to a tau (τ). This makes it easier to pronounce. The consonants in the first two columns (Voiceless and Voiced) will reduplicate like any other consonant. For Example: (φιλέω -> πεφίληκα (I have loved).
