· Do not confuse this word ta-li è tal/tali = “to arrive” with the ordinal number indicator TAL.
· The -i is an integral part of the verb, for some “verbs of movement” (ref?).
· The IC.p28/JM.p226.#2 is very probably CPN Altar Q B4.
· Classic Maya only had the one “generalized preposition” ti. For verbs of motion like “to arrive”, whether one arrived at from place (original location) or at a place (destination) was encoded in the verb itself:
o tal = “to arrive from”.
o hul = “to arrive at” (see HUL and hu-li è hul).
