 Remember :
If there is a sigma between the thematic vowel and the ending, that sigma is dropped and the 2 vowels, for reasons of euphony, contract.
"You want" should be:
  • stem δεχ
  • thematic vowel ε
  • ending σαι
The sigma is dropped, leaving δεχ-ε-αι
The 2 adjacent vowels ε+α contract to
either η with the iota becoming subscript: -
or to ει.
δέχ-ε-σαι turns into δέχῃ or δέχει (which means that at some time the pronunciation of and ει must have been the same.)
