The Ancient Greek verbal system preserves nearly all the complexities of Proto-Indo-European (PIE). Ancient Greek also preserves the PIE middle voice and adds a passive voice, with separate forms only in the future and aorist (elsewhere, the middle forms are used).
Greek verbs can be found in any of three voices: active, passive, and middle. Active verbs in Greek are those whose 1st person singular in the present tense ends in -ω (-ō) or -μι (-mi), such as κελεύω (keleúō) "I order" or εἰμί (eimí) "I am".
There are also "mixtures of Greek and Latin roots", e.g., nonaconta-, for 90, is a blend of the Latin nona-for 9 and the Greek -conta-found in words such as ἐνενήκοντα enenekonta '90'. [19] The Greek form is, however, used in the names of polygons in mathematics, though the names of polyhedra are more idiosyncratic.
