AI Summary

οὐ is the standard negative particle in Greek, meaning "no" or "not" 124. It denies a statement as a matter of fact, in contrast to the other Greek negative, me, which rejects something as a matter of will or thought rather than stating that it is not so 13.

Used on its own, it serves as a simple "no" in answer to a question 1. Far more often it stands before a verb or other word to negate it, and it commonly appears before verbs in the indicative mood, since it negates statements of fact 13. It changes form before vowels, becoming ouk before a smooth breathing and ouch before a rough breathing 1. When doubled with another negative it can either intensify the denial or, in some constructions, produce an affirmative sense 1. Combined with other particles it forms set expressions such as an emphatic form of "no longer," and in questions it typically introduces one expecting the answer "yes" 1. As a matter of English rendering, it can come out as "no," "not," "never," "none," "nothing," or similar, depending on the word or clause it attaches to 2.

Liddell-Scott-Jones — the classical dictionary this word appears in
οὐ,
the negative of fact and statement, as μή of will and thought; οὐ denies, μή rejects; οὐ is absolute, μή relative; οὐ objective, μή subjective. —The same differences hold for all compounds of οὐ and μή, and some examples of οὐδέ and οὐδείς are included below.—As to the Form, see infr. G. USAGRefs 5th c.BC+
I as the negative of single words,
II as the negative of the sentence.
I οὐ adhering to single words so as to form a quasi-compound with them:—with Verbs: οὐ δίδωμι withhold, Refs 8th c.BC+; οὐκ εἰῶ prevent, Refs; οὐκ ἐθέλω refuse, Refs; οὔ φημι deny, Refs 4th c.BC+; but sometimes οὐ is retained, εἰ δ᾽ ἂν.. οὐκ ἐθέλωσιν Refs 8th c.BC+; ἐάντε.. οὐ (variant{μή}) φῆτε ἐάντε φῆτε Refs 8th c.BC+ —On the use of οὐ in contrasts, see below Refs 5th c.BC+

Refs 5th c.BC+
II.6.c after ὥστε with indicative or optative with ἄν, ὥστ᾽ οὐ δυνατόν σ᾽ εἵργειν ἔσται Refs 5th c.BC+infinitive is almost invariably due to indirect speech, ὥστ᾽ οὐκ αἰσχύνεσθαι (for οὐκ αἰσχύνονται) Refs 5th c.BC+—Rarely not in indirect speech, Refs 5th c.BC+
II.7 in a conditional clause μή is necessary, except,
II.7.a in Refs 8th c.BC+ clause precedes the apodosis and the verb is indicative, εἰ δέ μοι οὐκ ἐπέεσσ᾽ ἐπιπείσεται Refs 8th c.BC+
II.7.b when the εἰ clause is really causal, as after Verbs expressing surprise or emotion, μὴ θαυμάσῃς, εἰ πολλὰ τῶν εἰρημένων οὐ πρέπει σοι Refs 5th c.BC+

II.8 οὐ is used with infinitive in indirect speech, when it represents the indicative of orat. recta, φαμὲν δέ οἱ οὐ τελέεσθαι Refs 8th c.BC+; sometimes we have οὐ and μή in consecutive clauses, οἶμαι σοῦ κάκιον οὐδὲν ἂν τούτων κρατύνειν μηδ᾽ ἐπιθύνειν χερί Refs 5th c.BC+
II.9 οὐ is used with the participle, when it can be resolved into a finite sentence with οὐ, as after Verbs of knowing and showing, τὸν κατθανόνθ᾽ ὁρῶντες οὐ τιμώμενον Refs 5th c.BC+; or into a causal sentence, τῶν βαρβάρων οἱ πολλοὶ ἐν τῇ θαλάσσῃ διεφθάρησαν νέειν οὐκ ἐπιστάμενοι Refs 5th c.BC+; or into a concessive sentence, δόξω γυναῖκα καίπερ οὐκ ἔχων ἔχειν Refs 5th c.BC+ and participle, ὡς οὐχὶ συνδράσουσα νουθετεῖς τάδε Refs 5th c.BC+:—for exceptions, see at {μή} Refs 5th c.BC+

II.10 Adjectives and abstract Substantives with the article commonly take μή (see. μή Refs 5th c.BC+ is occasionally used, τὰς οὐκ ἀναγκαίας πόσεις Refs 5th c.BC+; τὴν τῶν γεφυρῶν οὐ διάλυσιν the non- dissolution of the bridges, the fact of their notbeing broken up, Refs 5th c.BC+; so without the article, ἐν οὐ καιπῷ Refs
