Academic teaching rationale

### heiguadugutu *“she frequently falls (aimlessly, with no aim or destination).”* The form **heiguadugutu** is built upon the root *heigua*, “to fall” (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 feminine ('she') agreement suffix *-tu*, which fixes the subject as third-person feminine ('she'). Taken whole, the word means precisely “she frequently falls (aimlessly, with no aim or destination)” — its gloss states the fully-inflected sense, never the bare meaning of the root. Set against its kin, **nheigua** (“I fall”); **bheigua** (“you fall”): 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 *“Aguyedaguaguda lumuti wügüri lé gíri bei Hárabaganali luágu dúna wuríbati (gubégubeti), méreti heigua.”* — ‘The man named Hárabaganali slipped on the bad water (mud), he has no strength (he fell down).’. [FEED:verified_sentences] *The construction rests on Haurholm-Larsen 2016 §3.3.4 (-ti/-tu); MARAGAÑ (Shaka) MA
