That was very interesting! I met other languages that make use of prefixes and suffixes in verbs, even infixes, for example Tagalog and Finnish. Not that I think they are in family with Nahuatl, but I find it interesting that the way of constructing language is not necessarily unique to different parts of the world. They can develop parallel(ly?).

Yes according to what feels comfortable in their societal context. I also found it amusing that “meh” means something in Nahuatl!
