ταί, Ep. and poet. for οἱ or οἵ, αἱ or αἵ, nom. pl. of ὁ and , freq. in Hom. (relat., Od.3.73, 12.63, more freq. demonstr.), not in Ion. Prose, rare in Trag., e.g. A.Pers.424: but in Dor. and certain other dialects as the Article,

O. führt das Wort in dieser Bdtg auf den Dativ σοί, entl. τοί zurück, dir, sag' ich dir, wodurch sowohl Trost u.

Epikern σοί immer orthotonirt, τοί überall enklitisch ist; so Hom. u. Her. oft; s. Herm. H. h. Merc. 368.

English (Autenrieth)

enclitic particle of asseveration, certainly, you may be sure, I assure you, let me tell you; τοί has been called the ‘gnomic’ particle from the frequency of its occurrence in the statement of general truths or maxims, κιχάνει τοι βραδὺς ὠκύν, ‘the race is not always to the swift,’ Od. 8.329, Od. 2.276, Il. 2.298, etc. Sometimes it is impossible to decide whether this particle or the ethical dat. (τοί = σοί) is meant, and probably the two were originally identical.
pronoun. See (1) ὁ.—(2) σύ.

English (Strong)

probably for the dative case of ὁ; an enclitic particle of asseveration by way of contrast; in sooth: (used only with other particles in the comparative, as kaitoige, mentoi, toigaroun, toinun, etc.)
