Infixes for affect

[A. A. Aaron]

Is it possible to have two infixes for affect (one for a positive mood, one for negative) in close proximity to one another?

For instance:

Oe tìmeiul slä set oeri kinamtil ke nìltsan längu.

I just ran<LAUD> but now I-TOP knee not well be<PEJ>

"I just went running, but now my knee hurts."
(I enjoyed the run, but I'm not happy about how my knee hurts)

correct away, please.

I don't see why not.

As far as we know there's no problem with this.  Just don't slam them both into the same word.

Note, though, that you probably shouldn't use them for everything.  They should only be added when your feelings about things are relevant to what's being said.  Using them a lot might sound stylistically odd, even if they're grammatical.

I'm afraid nìltsan is an adverb — it doesn't mean "well" in the sense of "healthy."

Since you've already introduced yourself in the first clause (I just ran), it doesn't seem to me you need to include the topic.  We can easily assume you're talking about your own knee, not someone else's.

So we have no word for 'well being' in the physical sense?

[omängum fra'uti]

fpom - well-being

fpom - well-being

Of course!
How did I miss that?

Pretty much everything's been said but a topical is probably unnecessary (unless someone else also just ran, is fine and you're moaning about the difference), a genitive will do fine.
