Arist. Int. 18b39 . The pres. indic.
φημί is enclit., exc. in 2 sg. pres.
φῄς:
φαμέν is 1 pl. pres.,
φάμεν poet. inf.:
φαντί is 3 pl.,
φάντι part.
II). φάσκω supplied all moods of pres. except the indic., also impf.
ἔφασκον; cf.
ἠμί.[ except in
φᾱσι, and in masc. and fem. part.
φάς, φᾶσα: in inf.
φάναι ᾰ always;
φᾶναι is corrupt in
Eub. 119.11 codd.
Ath.]:—
say, affirm, assert, either abs., or folld. by inf., e. g.
Λυσίθευς Μικίωνα φιλῖν ( =
-εῖν )
φησι IG 12.924 , cf.
57.48 , or acc. et inf.; the inf. is freq. omitted,
σὲ κακὸν καὶ ἀνάλκιδα φήσει (sc.
εἶναι)
Il. 8.153 ; also
Κορινθίους τί φῶμεν; what
shall we say of them?
X. HG 3.5.12 ;
φ. πρός τινα, πρὸς ξεῖνον φάσθαι ἔπος ἠδ’ ἐπακοῦσαι Od. 17.584 : less freq. c. dat.,
αὐτοῖς Ev.Matt. 13.28 ;
κατά τινος φ. to
speak against him,
X. Ap. 25 : sts. folld. by
ὡς, Lys. 7.19 , v.l. in
X. HG 6.3.7 ; by
ὅτι, Pl. Grg. 487d ,
Corn. ND 30 ; by an interrog. clause,
μή ποτε φάσῃς ὅ τι γίνεται αὔριον Simon. l.c.; by part., dub. in
Pl. Grg. 481c (fort. leg.
θῶμεν); also parenthetic,
τίνες, φῄς, ἦσαν οἱ λόγοι; Pl. Phd. 59c .
b). since what one says commonly expresses a belief or opinion,
think, deem, suppose, φῆ γὰρ ὅ γ’ αἱρήσειν Πριάμου πόλιν Il. 2.37 ;
φαίης κε ζάκοτόν τέ τιν’ ἔμμεναι ἄφρονά τε you would say, would think, he was .. ,
3.220 ;
ἶσον ἐμοὶ φάσθαι to say he is (i. e.
fancy himself) equal to me,
1.187 ,
15.167 ;
μὴ .. φαθὶ λεύσσειν think not that you see,
Theoc. 22.56 ;
τί φῄς; what
say you? i.e. what
think you? (v. infr.
11.5 );
λέγ’ ἀνύσας ὅ τι φῄς Ar. Pl. 349 :—so
φ. δεῖν, φ. χρῆναι, deem it right,
And. 3.34 ,
Isoc. 3.48 .
c). say, i.e. write, of an author, ὡς ἔφημεν Gal. 1.158 , etc.—The Med. has all these senses as well as the Act.
II). Special Phrases:
1). φασί, they say, it is said, Il. 5.638 ,
Od. 6.42 , etc.; parenthetically,
Arist. EN 1109a35 ,
Men. Epit. 223 , etc.: Prose writers use
φησί when quoting,
D. 23.89 , etc.;
φησίν saith He,
1 Ep.Cor. 6.16 ; esp. of an opponent's objection,
Plu. 2.112c ; even after a plural,
ὅ τοίνυν μέγιστον ἔχειν οἴονται .. "καὶ αὐτός", φησί, "τῶν εἰσιόντων ἦσθα" Lib. Or. 52.39 ;"
τὸν δὲ μετ’ εἰσενόησα", ἔφη Ὅμηρος as H.
said, Pl. Prt. 315b .
3). in repeating dialogues the Verb commonly goes before its subject, ἔφην ἐγώ, ἔφη ὁ Σωκράτης, said I, said S., but the order is sts. inverted, ἐγὼ ἔφην, ὁ Σωκράτης ἔφη, I said, S. said.
4). inserted parenthetically, though the sentence has been introduced by
λέγει, εἶπεν, etc.,
ὁ Ἰσχόμαχος .. εἶπεν· ἀλλὰ παίζεις μὲν σύ γε, ἔφη X. Oec. 17.10 , cf.
Pl. Chrm. 164e ;
ἡ κρίσις .. διαρρήδην λέγει "διότι", φησίν, "ἔδοξε τἀληθῆ εἰσαγγεῖλαι" Lys. 13.50 .
6). κυριώτατα φάναι, in parenthesis, strictly
speaking, Ph. 2.374 ;
ὡς οὕτω φάναι, =
ὡς εἰπεῖν, ἅπασαι ὡς οὕτω φάναι practically all,
Gal. Vict.Att. 9 ;
συνελόντα ( v.l.
-όντι )
φάναι, =
συνελόντι εἰπεῖν ,
Id. 16.502 .
III). like
κατάφημι ,
say yes, affirm, assert, καὶ τοὺς φάναι and they
said yes, Hdt. 8.88 ;
καί φημι κἀπόφημι S. OC 317 ;
ἔγωγέ φημι Pl. Grg. 526c ;
φάναι τε καὶ ἀπαρνεῖσθαι Id. Tht. 165a : c. inf.,
φὴ|ς ἢ καταρνεῖ μὴ δεδρακέναι τάδε; S. Ant. 442 ; but
οὔ φημι means
say no, deny, refuse, c. inf.,
ἡ Πυθίη οὐκ ἔφη χρήσειν said she would
not .. ,
Hdt. 1.19 , cf.
8.2 ;
οὐκ ἔφασαν ἐπιτρέψαι Lys. 13.15 ,
47 (leg.
-τρέψειν): c. acc. et inf.,
οὔ φημ’ Ὀρέστην σ’ ἐνδίκως ἀνδρηλατεῖν A. Eu. 221 , cf.
Hdt. 2.63 : abs.,
κἂν μὲν μὴ φῇ if he
says no, Ar. Av. 555 (anap.);
ἢ φάθι ἢ μὴ ἃ ἐρωτῶ answer me
yes or no,
Pl. Grg. 475e ; so in answers,
φημί or
οὕτως φημί yes, Id. Phdr. 270c , al.,
Grg. 500e ;
οὐκ ἔφη he
said no, Id. Phd. 118a .— In this sense Att. writers, besides pres., mostly use fut.
φήσω and aor.
ἔφησα, but in impf., inf., and part. pres., to avoid ambiguity, they prefer
ἔφασκον, φάσκειν, φάσκων (v.
φάσκω):
φάναι is distd. fr.
φάσκειν, e.g.
ἔφη σπουδάζειν he said he was in haste,
ἔφασκε σπουδάζειν he alleged he was in haste; but
ἔφησθα is found in this sense,
X. An. 1.6.7 .
ShortDef
to say, to claim
