page 189 note 1 Most of these languages carry out their word-building by prefixes and infixes, but Muṇḍā and, to a certain extent, Nicobar also employ suffixes. In discussing the reason for this difference Pater Schmidt incidentally quotes a grammatical law of some importance, which he had laid down on a previous occasion, but which is most probably new to most readers of this. It is that, in languages which employ suffixes, the genitive (without any affix) precedes the governing noun, while in those that employ prefixes it follows it.
