For instance, the “development of aspectual prefixes for verbs in these Creoles is unquestionably due to a carry-over from West African languages, in which aspect is far more important than tense so far as verb-inflection is concerned. Thus, in Yoruba, the progressive is formed by prefixing a nasal to the verb-stem, the habitual by prefixing maa_and the perfective by prefixing ti”, p.  60]
