Re: Latvian uzka:pšana

Prefixes UZ and UZH are more related to results of some action. For
example, words DEGE LAUZHA means that SOMEONE WAS TRYING TO LIGHT
THE FIRE, but words UZHDEGE LAUZHA means that SOMEONE HAS LIGHTED
THE FIRE, words LIPO I MEDI means that SOMEONE WAS TRYING TO CLIMB
TO THE TREE, but words, UZHLIPO I MEDI means that SOMEONE HAS
CLIMBED TO THE TREE.
