[tewanhi]

‘I will come’

(4)

[temiban]

‘I went’

‘she was going’

(5)

[amiban]

‘you went’

(3)

[temiwe]

‘I am going’

  • -‘I’
  • -‘you’
  • -‘she’
  • -‘go’
  • -‘come’
  • -(past)
  • -(present progressive)
  • -(past progressive)
  • -(future)

b. Identify the types of affixes used to indicate subject and tense, in terms of where they attach to their base.

c. Identify the order of morphemes in Isleta verbs, based on these data.

d. Explain whether the affixation featured here is inflectional or derivational in nature (1-2 sentences should suffice).

e. Predict the Isleta word representing the following meanings:

– ‘She will go.’

– ‘You are coming.’

f. Predict the form of three additional words of this language, beyond those found in the data set (and distinct from your answers to part e.). Be sure to also include their translation in English.
