ABSTRACT
Derivative suffixes occur immediately after the root but before the inflectional endings, i.e. before number and case endings in nominals, before passive, tense, mood and personal endings in finite verb forms, and before the infinitive and participle endings in non-finite verb forms. (See the diagrams in Chapter 3.)
Derived nominals and verbs inflect just like non-derived ones. Derived words are subject to the same sound alternations as other words, in particular consonant gradation (§15) and the vowel changes (§16).
