The Function of Verb Prefixes in Southwestern Otom

Discusses how Otom verb prefixes include deixis in their function. States that a key element to understanding the makeup of Otom verbs is the role of deixis in the verb and elsewhere in the sentence. Discusses how every independent Otomi sentence is grounded in reality through deixis, and every dependent sentence depends upon deictic grounding in sentences around it.
