Greek Mood-Choice Verb Entries @cite{grano-2024} #

Minimal verb entries for Modern Greek attitude and causative predicates relevant to cross-linguistic mood choice (@cite{grano-2024}, Table 1).

In Greek, mood is reflected in complementizer choice (na = SBJV vs oti = IND) rather than verb inflection. Greek lacks nonfinite complementation. 'want' and 'intend' take na (SBJV); 'hope' allows both na and oti (IND/SBJV). Causatives take na (SBJV).

Key examples (from @cite{grano-2024}) #

(5) Thelo na/*oti kerdisi o Janis. ('want': SBJV/*IND)
(13) Elpizo na/oti kerdise o Janis. ('hope': SBJV/IND)
(22) I Ariadne protithete na/*oti fiji noris. ('intend': SBJV/*IND)
(45a) Evala ton Jani na pai sto parko. ('make': SBJV)
