### adarasarabei *“you keep back.”* The form **adarasarabei** is built upon the root *adarasara*, “to keep back” (The People's Garifuna Dictionary (Cayetano)). To it is joined the modal person suffix *-bei*, placing second-person singular ('you') within the modal (irrealis) series. Taken whole, the word means precisely “you keep back” — its gloss states the fully-inflected sense, never the bare meaning of the root. Set against its kin, **nadarasara** (“I keep back”); **badarasara** (“you keep back”): 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. While a citation of this exact form still awaits collection, its root is heard in living speech, as in *“Wuríbati adarasaraguni le lídan waséinsu, mégeitiwa buídu.”* — ‘This recession in our money is bad, we need goodness (prosperity).’. [FEED:verified_sentences] *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.*
