esʕwep – Lexemic Stem
A lexeme is a unit of lexical meaning that underlies a set of words that are related through inflection. It is a basic abstract unit of meaning,[1] a unit of morphological analysis in linguistics that roughly corresponds to a set of forms taken by a single root word.

Where are the lists of root words, or x infixes?
Is there a list of all possible root words / lexemic stems, or “x infixes”? I’m still completely unclear how words are actually formed given that there is only information on prefixes and suffixes.
