Something similar is achieved by using certain suffixes (which are not classifiers) or by a special noun-verb compounding (which is not intransitivizing). |

There is a suffix which can nominalize a verb however it isn't a classifier, it isn't used with every verb, and "cannot be considered to be very productive". |

Classifiers can be used with verbs, but they classify the notional subject of an intransitive or the notional object of a transitive. |

There are several derivational suffixes in Desano that are used to derive verbs from nouns. The most productive is -kɨ that makes a possessive verb out of a noun. |
Miller 1999, p. 110, 36 |

Nouns are simple nouns or forms derived from verbs by the addition of the deverbilizers -ri and -ro to form inanimate nouns, and the nominalizing suffixes -gi (masc sing), -go (fem sing), and -rã (animate plural) to form animate nouns. |
|
| Cubeo |
yes |
Deverbal animate nouns may be formed with the animate nonfuture active nominalizers or with the passive nominalizers . |
Morse & Maxwell 1999, p. 88-90 |
