οὗ ὄντες ναυμαχήσετε, ἔφη, ὅταν βούλησθε. οἱ δὲ στρατηγοί, μάλι

[SpeedPocok5]

οὗ ὄντες ναυμαχήσετε, ἔφη, ὅταν βούλησθε. οἱ δὲ στρατηγοί, μάλιστα δὲ Τυδεὺς καὶ Μένανδρος, ἀπιέναι αὐτὸν ἐκέλευσαν: αὐτοὶ γὰρ νῦν στρατηγεῖν, οὐκ ἐκεῖνον.

What's exactly the first οὗ?

 

[Bitmap]

It means "where" ... although in that sentence, it is easier to translate it as "there". (like ubi in Latin)

Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, A Greek-English Lexicon, οὗ

Is it a relative? If it means "where" it would be an adverb, wouldn't it?

 

[Bitmap]

Yes ... a relative adverb.
