### afayeihaguawama *“let us all constantly pay (no specific time in focus).”* The form **afayeihaguawama** is built upon the root *afayeiha*, “to pay (no specific time in focus)” (NISAMINA master dictionary). To it is joined the element *-guawama* (OUFUDA guawama), whose force is given by the elder paradigm. Taken whole, the word means precisely “let us all constantly pay (no specific time in focus)” — its gloss states the fully-inflected sense, never the bare meaning of the root. To see its precise force, compare **nafayeiha** (“I pay (no specific time in focus)”); **bafayeiha** (“you pay (no specific time in focus)”): 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 *“Añahein gürigia lǘtiña afayeiha dúeiti lárigiñe haturiahan”*. [05_sentences.CLEAN_2026-06-20] *The construction rests on MARAGAÑ (Shaka) MAGARADA 2026-06-24 (OUFUDA master suffix family — his exclusive contribution). 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.*
