Is there any way of saying in Classical Greek--go yodel yourself.

I don't agree English has only "four main verb forms." As I recall from my Spanish, we had an English counterpart to all or almost all their forms. People may not know what they are, but they do use them.

Greek is one of the most florid and poetic languages on the planet.
Not an easy one though.
I find it much more pleasurable to express ideas in Greek than in any other
language.

"You are about to be having been yodeled"

So "yodel" is a transitive verb in Greek? Extraordinary!
