Gloss “ana-” by Eldamo Import

Hey, is that really an allative prefix? I thought that the cases of words are just defined by their suffixes ...

Ps. If so, is Et- the ablative prefix?

Short answer: no.

The ablative and allative cases in noun declension are always suffixes: -nna and -llo.

The prefix ana- is a more general purpose prefix that can be added nouns or verbs. I imagine it is used more often with verbs, as is the case with the prefix et- “out”. For example, perhaps anamen- might mean something like “to go to(wards), venture forth”.
