What is a double accusative?

True double accusative

Several Greek verbs take two arguments in the accusative case (this is usually called “double accusative of person and thing” in NT grammars). We can call these Argument 2 (traditionally direct object) and Argument 3 (traditionally complement).

What are the two uses of the accusative case?

The accusative case is used to indicate the extent (of space) and the duration (of time): nec unum diem remoratus est = "and he did not wait for one day." tria milia passuum processit = "he advanced three miles." By extension, the accusative is also used to give dimensions (how high, wide and deep something is).

What is an example of a double verb?

Example: She pretended to be his friend, but she didn't hesitate to make fun of him behind his back. When using any of these verbs first in a two-verb phrase, use the GERUND form of the second verb in the verb phrase: Example: Many adults would like to stop smoking, but they postpone doing that for various reasons.

Can you have 2 objects in a sentence?

Many verbs can have two objects – one direct object and one indirect object. Usually the indirect object refers to a person, and this often comes first. For example: "He gave his sister a camera". If we put the indirect object last, we use a preposition (usually to or for).
