adjectives & xoxopeualiztli

[rick dosan]

Ueli is an adjective, and it could mean -good or posible.  But I think it could also be read as -be good (to be good)  or be possible (to be possible).  Is this right?  If it is correct, could a "passive" marker, LO, somehow be used with it?  "uelilo" How flexible can certain adjectives be read as "to be" (ie, to be good), as if they had a connection to verbs?

Also, does xoxopeualiztli have a root?  Could it be -xoxo  (to cast a spell), and peua (to begin)?

Thanks,
Rich
