Abstract :In the 1950 issue of yahrbuch für); kinsert ignore into journalissuearticles values(leinasiatische); Finsert ignore into journalissuearticles values(orschung); insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(vol. I, p. 125 footnote 106-110); I studied the -/insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(/);- formations and the suffixes -tahta- and -talli- in Hittite. In this brief communication I shall discuss the -ninsert ignore into journalissuearticles values(n);- formations, the treatment of which has been hitherto neglected in Hittite grammars. Recently Prof. Friedrich has treated the suffix -insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(a);nni- in Ainsert ignore into journalissuearticles values(rchiv); finsert ignore into journalissuearticles values(ür); 0insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(rientforschung); yol. XV, p. \` III f. insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(written in 1943, printed in 1946 and issued in 1951);. The same note was republished by him with almost the same wording with the exception of slight corrections in Biinsert ignore into journalissuearticles values(bliotheca); Orinsert ignore into journalissuearticles values(ientalis); yol. V insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(1948);, p. 51, note 18. Although Friedrich does not explicitly separate the suffix -insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(a);nni- from the suffıx -insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(a);nna- and the formations with double n from those with on.e n, he treats only the suffix -insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(a);ninsert ignore into journalissuearticles values(n);i- and wants to see in it a diminutive function. A diminutive suffix had not as yet hem established in Hittite till then.
