It is the task of this paper to discuss the transparency efect of language produced by the referent’s stabilization what generates an ilusion link among language-thought-world. Linguistic data are followed by etnographical descriptions as a manner to enlarge the understanding about the sufixes (-ti) and (-re), usually taken as augmentative and diminutive. The hipothesis about the categorial fuction of this sufixes does not procced while constrating naming and designation. Therefore, they are not a membership category to link the world to one of the two cerimonial half of apinaje society. That is, they are not a thought structure projected over the real world but they reveal a narrative structure conected to other pre-existing narratives.
