### agawachawala *“let it dilute / (it) shall dilute.”* The form **agawachawala** is built upon the root *agawacha*, “to dilute” (NISAMINA master dictionary). To it is joined the optative mood *-wala*, which projects the action as something that shall be, or is let to be. Taken whole, the word means precisely “let it dilute / (it) shall dilute” — its gloss states the fully-inflected sense, never the bare meaning of the root. Set against its kin, **nagawacha** (“I dilute”); **bagawacha** (“you dilute”): 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 MARAGAÑ (Shaka) MAGARADA 2026-06-24 (modal/optative paradigm, root ex. aguyaguda). 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.*
