Academic teaching rationale

**áfamurayu** ‘while brooding (simultaneous/concurrent action)’ is the verb *áfamura* ‘to brood’ carrying the simultaneous suffix *-yu* 'while X-ing' — the concurrent-action form (MARAGAÑ (Shaka) MAGARADA, 2026-06-24), which applies globally to verbs. Some stems take the *-ñu/-nyu* allomorph (e.g. hou→hounyu, yuru→yurunyu), lexically conditioned and elder-confirmed per root. Flagged for fluent-elder validation.
