Academic teaching rationale
Why — The conclusive/absolute -gubei inside a negative verb yields 'never': móumugugubeituwa 'we never slept'; mabúnidigubeitina 'I never had a hat'; méihingubeitina ní gürígiya 'I never saw anyone'. On affirmatives the same morpheme = 'had better' (hóugubei bein… 'you'd better eat it') and quantifier 'both' (biyángubei). CONVERGENCE: independently corroborates the Magarada negative perfect ma-+…-gubeiyanu/-gubeiyadiwa 'ne (Munro & Gallagher, 'Garifuna Negatives' (The Expression of Negation in the Languages of the Americas / UCLA fieldwork, Seine Bight Belize) §G.1 exx.91–95; Taylor 1952a:165; Magarada §9/§14 convergence) [FULL-AUTHOR-GRANT]
