Find a verb and open its full tables or a matching example. Alternative spellings and separate active and passive headwords are included, along with some rare, formal and regional verbs.

Greek searches work with or without accents. English search is available where a translation is recorded. Understand the verb groups.

How to use a matching example
  1. Open the linked example and choose the tense you need.
  2. Follow its person endings: I, you, he/she/it, we, you, they.
  3. Check the stem of your own verb, especially in the simple past and simple future. Matching present endings alone do not establish every other form.

Full tables show the named verb itself. A pattern example shows another verb to compare with. A suggested pattern still needs checking.

For example, γράφω → έγραψα shows that both the stem and the ending can change. Read the guide to verb tables.
