Question About stems...

Post image

New guy here. I can see that nost roots have a universal Stem 2 and 3, regardless of specification. Are these all treated as Basic specification or can I use any of them without changing the meaning of the word?

The meaning of specifications for the other two stems should follow the pattern given for the first.

CTE: capacity to practice/be a source of knowledge

CSV: act of practicing/providing knowledge

OBJ: skill practiced/knowledge provided.

Correct, this.
