| Verbs comprise verbal roots, but also their variations with prefix strings of preverb particles, and secondary formations for causatives, intensives and desideratives. |
|
| Direct object personal pronouns are infixed between the preverb and the verbal stem. |
|
| Only a restricted set of preverb particles may occur before the verb. |
|
| The Hittite preverb or postposition menahhanda 'opposite, against, vis-a-vis, facing, toward', sometimes spelled Sumerographically as IGI-an-da, is well attested from OS on. |
