===General Notes=== | |||
Thulean morphology has the following constituents: | |||
1) Roots: these are divided into nominal and verbal roots. The latter are divided into transitive and intransitive categories. | |||
2) Postbases: these are derivational or adjunctival suffixes which directly follow the root. They are scope-ordered. | |||
3) Inflectional affixes: these bear functions such as case, number, possession, agent, patient, tense amongst others. The usual bread and butter, nuts and bolts stuff that inflection does. | |||
4)Particles: Conjunctions, interjections and other miscellany that do not fit into the above categories. | |||
