### ekeheraduguti *“he frequently complains (aimlessly, with no aim or destination).”* The form **ekeheraduguti** is built upon the root *ekehera*, “to complain” (The People's Garifuna Dictionary (Cayetano)). To it are joined the frequentative-aimless suffix *-dugu*, which casts the action as habitual yet purposeless — repeated over and over, with no aim or destination; then the third-person masculine ('he') agreement suffix *-ti*, which fixes the subject as third-person masculine ('he'). Taken whole, the word means precisely “he frequently complains (aimlessly, with no aim or destination)” — its gloss states the fully-inflected sense, never the bare meaning of the root. Placed beside its siblings, **nekehera** (“I complain”); **bekehera** (“you complain”): 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 Haurholm-Larsen 2016 §3.3.4 (-ti/-tu); MARAGAÑ (Shaka) MAGARADA 2026-06-24 (eibuga aspect family: -dugu frequentative / -gubeiyein perfect-continuous). 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.*
