3. Comparative List of Reference Grammars:
These grammars are strictly reference tools. They do not contain exercises or teach the language in a course like fashion. What they do is systematically explain various aspects of the language. Since there has been significant debate over many areas of Greek grammar a good scholar should have a shelf load of these references.
