Lingual "Defaults"...

I am a relatively new student of the language, and going through some
vocabulary, I noticed that the 'default' setting for preference is <par>:
dislike, and in order to say you like something, it has to add the -Ha'
suffix...It's little lingual tidbits like this that really show off the
amount of knowledge contained within a language. By understanding *why* a
language works the way it does, you gain an insight into the collective
minds of the speakers, and into their social and cultural
evolution...just thought I'd share. lol
