There are only four infixes: -present tense infix -future tense infix -conditional infix -phenomenal infix There are 23 prefixes, and there are 12 suffixes. I haven't updated the affixes page, so that will get done sometime this weekend (actually, I need to upload all the updated pages I've been working on.) ________________________________________________ It's worth the risk of burning, to have a second chance...
