### hawiwanda *“they subsist.”* The form **hawiwanda** is built upon the root *awiwanda*, “to subsist” (NISAMINA master dictionary). To it is joined the third-person plural subject prefix *ha-*, marking third-person plural ('they') as the one who acts. Taken whole, the word means precisely “they subsist” — its gloss states the fully-inflected sense, never the bare meaning of the root. Placed beside its siblings, **nawiwanda** (“I subsist”); **bawiwanda** (“you subsist”): 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. This very form is heard in living speech: *“Subúsewati ubauwagu, dan lan ligirún gürigia lun ladúgüni le ligundan, ibihalai le yubai lun lidan deregüdaguaü, ligia lan lagüchabai gudúmei hadan sun idúheñu.
