This is a compilation and expansion on the original forum post from Tirea Aean which detailed every affix in Na’vi and how it is used as well as the implications of the affix. Here I will expand on this by adding any information that has changed since the original post was edited in 2016. I will also provide three different sorting arrangements of the affixes: first sorted by location (prefix, infix, suffix), then by parts of speech, and finally by productivity vs. non-productivity. 0.2 Layout Every entry will have the same layout which is as follows: Affix±: Productivity and Affix Type [Parts of Speech] Meanings/Implications Examples: lì’u Word → lì’uvihu lì’u Affixed Word | natkenong lì’ukìng lì’uhu Example Sentence with the Word Source: Source Page 5 6 Chapter 1 Location 1.1 Prefixes fì-: Productive Prefix [Nouns/Pronouns] Translates to ”This (noun)”. Used to directly reference a specific instance of a noun. Typically either something in temporal or spacial proximity to the speaker or directly relevant to the topic the speaker is currently discussing. Also part of the contracted words fwa, fula, futa, and furia. Examples: ’upxare message → fì’upxare this message | Neytiril oeru tolìng fì’upxaret Neytiri gave this message to me. Source: NEED TO FIND tsa-: Productive Prefix [Nouns/Pronouns] Translates to ”That (noun)”. Used to indirectly reference a specific instance of a noun. Typically either something far in temporal or spacial proximity to the speaker or indirectly relevant to the topic the speaker is currently discussing. Also part of the contracted words tsawa, fsala, tsata, and tsaria. Examples: ’upxare message → tsa’upxare that message | Neytiril oeru tolìng tsa’upxaret Neytiri gave that message to me.
