Naesan suffixes

Since Naeso is inflecting, we need affixes, and probably lots of them. Naeso uses suffixes.

Do suffixes replace the vowel of the last syllable?

Both are allowed for different words.

System: what categories are marked with inflection, and which with particles or adverbs or whatever?

Mark number (e.g. singular/plural) on nouns with affixes.

Mark case/thematic relations (agent, patient, experiencer, force, focus...) on nouns with prepositions.

Mark tense on verbs with adverbs (e.g. "yesterday") and prepositional phrases (e.g. "on monday").

Mark aspect on verbs with affixes on the verb.

Results of another vote on the Grammar page contradict this. We are re-voting in a hopefully less ambiguous way on the Grammar page.

Following discussion on #naeso with bornfor, I moved the proposed affixes to the proposed words page. -- JH

TODO: copy back hither the already-approved affixes from the Naeso/Dictionary/Naeso-English page, and organize them in some way more logical than alphabetical order...
