Academic teaching rationale
### añüraüdeinani *“the act of come downing.”* The form **añüraüdeinani** is built upon the root *añüraüdeina*, “to come down/ to reduce/ to decrease” (NISAMINA master dictionary). To it is joined the nominalising suffix *-ni*, which names the very act or state of the verb. Taken whole, the word means precisely “the act of come downing” — its gloss states the fully-inflected sense, never the bare meaning of the root. Placed beside its siblings, **nañüraüdeina** (“I come down”); **bañüraüdeina** (“you come down”): each shares the same stem yet bends it to a different shade of meaning, which is exactly how Garífuna wins great precision from a single root. *The construction rests on Quesada 2017 §3.3. This is a principled composition — a cited root joined to a cited paradigm — and so it is offered for fluent-elder validation rather than asserted as attested.*
