As the acrostatic paradigm is generally understood, it does not
contain the full-grade suffix allomorph which is generalized in BSl.
(-en-, -er-, -es-). If it does that in your system, I'm afraid it is
just yours alone.

I guess you will learn soon enough why the vocative is so prominent
with the word 'mother'. Please accept a belated word of
congratulations on your new status from me too.
