The family words are a good place to see three affixes working at once. adds -in- for a sister. oj adds - for siblings of both sexes together, and that is the point of the prefix: a group of only sisters is , never oj. o is brotherhood, a word the early movement wore threadbare in its speeches about uniting the peoples. The same pattern runs through and , and oj, so learning it once buys you the whole family tree.
