### bawaniha *“you winnow awanihani.”* The form **bawaniha** is built upon the root *awaniha*, “to winnow awanihani” (The People's Garifuna Dictionary (Cayetano)). To it is joined the second-person singular subject prefix *b-*, marking second-person singular ('you') as the one who acts. Taken whole, the word means precisely “you winnow awanihani” — its gloss states the fully-inflected sense, never the bare meaning of the root. Set against its kin, **nawaniha** (“I winnow awanihani”); **lawaniha** (“he winnows awanihani”): 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 Quesada 2017 §3 person-indexation. 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.*
