.
But his most important See also:work was his Syntax of the Moods and Tenses of the Greek Verb (1860), of which the seventh revised edition appeared in 1877 and another (enlarged) in 1890
.
This was " based in See also:part on See also:Madvig and See also:Kruger," but, besides making accessible to American students the See also:works of these See also:continental grammarians, it presented See also:original See also:matter, including a " See also:radical innovation in the See also:classification of conditional sentences," notably the " distinction between particular and See also:general suppositions." Goodwin's Greek See also:Grammar (elementary edition, 187o;.enlarged 1879; revised and enlarged 1892) gradually superseded in most American See also:schools the Grammar of See also:Hadley and See also:- ALLEN, BOG OF
