Citazioni 

There are not a few languages that make absolutely no use of prefixed elements, but possess a complex apparatus of suffixes [...] the use of prefixed elements to the complete exclusion of suffixes, is far less common.
- Sapir (1921), a pag.67

In some languages [...] the suffixes alone relate the word to the rest of the sentence, the prefixes being confined to the expression of such ideas as delimit the significance of the radical element without influencing its bearing in the proposition.
- Sapir (1921), a pag.68
