====Third Declension Feminine and Masculine Nouns====
Third Declension Nouns are those that are not First or Second Declension. Various irregular forms exist, however most feminine and masculine nouns follow a the same standard pattern with a variable nominative case.
The stem of the verb is seen in the genitive case, not the nominative case.
The paradigm is as follows: '''variable ος ι α ες ων σι ας'''
For example the feminie noun [[ελπις]] (hope) declines as follows
====Third Declension Neuter Nouns====
 
Third Declension Nouns are those that are not First or Second Declension. Various irregular forms exist, however most neuter nouns follow one of two standard patterns.
 
The first main group consists of those like [[σωμα]] (body) that end in an '''α'''. The paradigm is as follows: '''α ατος ατι α ατα ατων ασι ατα'''
 
For example, σωμα (body) declines like this
* σωμα (Nom, Sing)
* σωματος (Gen, Sing)
* σωματι (Dat, Sing)
* σωμα (Acc, Sing)
* σωματα (Nom, Plu)
* σωματων (Gen, Plu)
* σωμασι (Dat, Plu)
* σωματα (Acc, Plu)
 
The second main group consists of those like [[σκοτος]] (darkness) that end in '''ος'''. The paradigm is as follows: '''ος ους ει ος η ων εσι η'''
 
For example, σκοτος (darkness) declines like this:
* σκοτος
* σκοτους
* σκοτει
* σκοτος
* σκοτη
* σκοτων
* σκοτεσι
* σκοτη
