Thanks for the ref, but half of the new examples arguably did not contain transfixes. Rather, one could argue that the imperfectives are formed from a person prefix plus a number infix, so I restored the older and simpler examples. kwami ( talk) 08:47, 28 February 2008 (UTC) reply

The article lacks diachronic explanation of how transfixes arise. What sources have explored this? -- 98.226.71.46 ( talk) 17:43, 4 August 2013 (UTC) reply
