Why this matters

Why — On a noun → diminutive (uguneraü 'little car'); on a verb → attenuative 'a little/now and then' (aliharaüti 'he reads a little'); on a pronoun/quantifier → isolator 'just/only' (auwraü 'just me'). Attaches BEFORE person/TAM (samina-raü-tina). (Magarada §4) [PRINCIPLES-ONLY — paraphrased]
