-Other derivational affixes, both prefixes and suffixes, are more common, some appear to be highly productive and suggest they can be spontaneously generated:
-* ''-kai'': a deverbal for creating place nouns, e.g. ''iavati-kai'' "a place for buying", i.e. marketplace.
-* ''-pallái'': another deverbal for creating place nouns, e.g. ''tukin-pallái'' "a place for sitting", i.e. hearth, dining room.
-* ''-kattá'': a deverbal affix deriving agent nouns, e.g. ''iavati-kattá'' "one who buys, a buyer"
-Some affixes may be chained, as in ''tukimpallaikattá'' < ''tukin-pallai-kattá'' "a place for sitting ones", i.e. "dinner guests, diners".  However, affix chaining is rather uncommon.
