And what exactly, in plain English, does synergize mean? I can't find it
in my college dictionary at home. My unabridged Funk & Wagnals is at
school.
In Greek, SUNERGEI can mean "to help" usually associated with a word in the
dative case. I see no problem with a singular subject for this verb in
Greek.
