How do you get into one family or the other?

Derivation by prefix or compounding.

I'm sure Peter meant, eg : how did appeler get in one family and acheter in
the other?

I wonder why my earlier response didn't appear.

What Christian gave was a rule of thumb rather than a rule. I see no
morphological distinction between jeter and acheter.
