If you have some free time, this is fascinating viewing, 50 mins of presentation and the rest is question time. I learnt a whole heap from this, worth every minute of my viewing:

Now, the idea that every verb requires a suffix describing how you got this information is... genius!!
Now, the idea that every verb requires(as I have read) a suffix describing how you got this information is(I deduce)... genius! The lack of such qualifiers causes(I have both seen and read) problems all the time! Can we incorporate(only a query, not an assertion) that in English?

Well, I actually only got to watch half of it (through the exploration of the concept of counting) but I will get to the second half shortly! Puts me in mind of my days as an anthropology major, loooooooooooooong long time ago! I was awesome at sorting bird bone fragments in the archaeology lab.
