How the form is built

Root: agagudúwa — To rouse oneself from sleep

negative (Munro & Gallagher) [NEG:M_PREFIX]

Applied laws: NEG:M_PREFIX

Academic teaching rationale

Why — All Garifuna negative verbs carry the prefix m- (analyzed as m-, not ma- — the following vowel varies) attached to the NEGATIVE STEM (N). Usable on the great majority of verbs regardless of semantic class: máfaru numuti 'I didn't hit him'; móumuguutina 'I didn't sleep'; magúndaatina 'I'm not happy'. (Munro & Gallagher, 'Garifuna Negatives' (The Expression of Negation in the Languages of the Americas / UCLA fieldwork, Seine Bight Belize) §B.1 exx.21–25; Taylor 1952a:150 'privative'; corroborates Magarada ma- privative) [FULL-AUTHOR-GRANT]
