Classical Nahuatl

Alternative forms

  • t- (before vowels)

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /ti/ (before consonants)
  • IPA(key): /t/ (before vowels)

Prefix

ti-

  1. Subject prefix for verbs; indicates that the subject is first person plural: we.
  2. Subject prefix for verbs; indicates that the subject is second person singular: you; thou.

Usage notes

  • If used to denote the (first person) plural, then the prefixed verb should also be suffixed with -h.

Esperanto

Etymology

Demonstratives of European languages in t, such as English (this, that, there, thus, then), French (tel, tant), Polish (ten), Russian (те, то, так, там, такой, тогда). Note also German (dies, den).

Prefix

ti-

  1. this-, that-. (Demonstrative correlative prefix.)

Usage notes

By itself, the ti- words do not specify distance, as is the case with French ce. However, the absence of the particle ĉi, which indicates proximity, may suggest greater distance than ĉi would be used for. That is, tiu ĉi (this one) is equivalent to French celui-ci, while tiu (that one) is equivalent to both celui and celui-là. Occasionally the particle for is used (tiu for) for celui-là.
