Notes

1. afx = affix, either a prefix or a suffix added to a root, e.g., ma̋xo, bag, + -ko, diminutive suffix, = ma̋xko, follicle.
2. cpd = a compound of two or more roots, e.g., ðééa, in place of, + fe̋e̋to, noun = ðeefe̋e̋to, pronoun.
3. drv = a word derived from a root, e.g., sa̋m̃o, word, < sa̋m̃a, t.v. speak.
4. pol = a word with a different, but related sense to an original word, e.g., te̋na, tense < te̋na, time
5. These words are not numbered, as only original roots are numbered
