Not illustrated. 1876 Excerpt: ...(Dem. 01. i. 16). 'Right gladly would he have advanced against you.' (See Appendix, No. XIV. 1. 6.) XIX. TEN CAUTIONS ON THE USE OF av. 1. Never begin a sentence with av. 2. Never use the Present, or Perfect Indicative, --or the Future in any part of the Verb, with av. (a) What is or has beai cannot be conditional, and av, when joined with a Verb, involves a condition. It may appear to be joined to a Present, e.g., in ou8' av vfisls o2S' ort frravaraads, for ovS' vp, us ot8' ou siravaaaOl av. (See below on the Order of Words, No. XXVII. 9. b.) (b) In a very few passages (if the MSS. are correct) it is found with the Future, but in some of these it really belongs to another word in the sentence. Wherever it occurs with a Future Infinitive, Madvig says there is an error in the reading. 3. Never use dv in the Protasis of a Conditional Sentence, nor consequently with a Participle to represent a Protasis. 4. Never omit dv in the Apodosis, to express what would be now, or would have been the result, if the condition were now fulfilled, or had been fulfilled. Exceptions: (a) dv is omitted sometimes for emphasis. Cf. 'it had been good for that man, ' for 'it would have been.' (b) dv is omitted with sBsi, irpoo-rKsv, Sikos rjv, and other words denoting fitness. 5. Never omit av in the Apodosis, to express what would be the result if the condition should be fulfilled. 6. Never use the Present Infinitive or Present Participle with av, unless they can be resolved into the Imperfect Indicative with av, or Present Optative with av, e.g. rjav avrovs sksvOspovs av slvat si Tovto sirpaav (where av stvai = riaav av), or si Tovto irpdsiav (where av slvai=slTjaav dv). fyrjo-lv ainoiis sXsvOspovs av ovTas si Tovto sirpaav (where dv 6vras-=aav av), or si Tovto irpdsiav (where.
