==== Usage notes ==== | |||
Both suffixes are unproductive in modern Laefevian but the second sense was productive in pre-modern Laefevian and the suffixes were simply attached to the stem. Adjectives belonging to sense 1 can be traced all the way back to Proto-Laenkean, or Proto-Laefevic at least, when root gradation was still in effect. Adjectives belonging to sense 2 do not exibit any root gradation. | |||
