Also, I've found that wikipedia will classify american languages that fuse tam, subject and object person and number, valency, and dependancy into 1 or two unanalyzeable morphemes and have variable verb stems depending on context as "agglutinative", and Kihammic is nowhere near doing that much. | Also, I've found that wikipedia will classify american languages that fuse tam, subject and object person and number, valency, and dependancy into 1 or two unanalyzeable morphemes and have variable verb stems depending on context as "agglutinative", and Kihammic is nowhere near doing that much. | ||

Well, if you consider German fusional, I think there is enough fusionality in this language to call it fusional. If you take a look at the declension of adjectives, it is apparent that the morphemes encode at least 3 categories. There is also a diversity and inconsistency of the affixes throughout the grammatical categories, quite typical to fusional languages. | |||
Remember that American linguists often have different classification systems to those of their European counterparts, and that Native American languages aren't located in the European substrate of languages and grammar. | |||
That said, the language does have quite a few agglutinative features, as most European languages. | |||
