Noun

Nouns in Greek have gender (masculine, feminine, neuter), number (singular, dual, plural), and case (nominative, genitive, dative, accusative, vocative).

Greek nouns are organized into three declensions based on their stem: • First declension: mostly feminine, stems in -α/-η • Second declension: mostly masculine/neuter, stems in -ο • Third declension: various genders, consonant stems

The article (ὁ, ἡ, τό) agrees with and indicates the gender of a noun. Learning noun vocabulary includes memorizing the nominative, genitive, and article.
