### afansehaguarugu *“in the habit of arranging put in order, set right afansehani / doing nothing but arranging put in order, set right afansehani.”* The form **afansehaguarugu** is built upon the root *afanseha*, “to arrange, put in order, set right afansehani” (The People's Garifuna Dictionary (Cayetano)). To it is joined the habitual-restrictive suffix *-guarugu*, which fixes the action as a habit or sole occupation — 'in the habit of …-ing, doing nothing but'. Taken whole, the word means precisely “in the habit of arranging put in order, set right afansehani / doing nothing but arranging put in order, set right afansehani” — its gloss states the fully-inflected sense, never the bare meaning of the root. To see its precise force, compare **nafanseha** (“I arrange, put in order, set right afansehani”); **bafanseha** (“you arrange, put in order, set right afansehani”): 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 *“Afanseha hamuti wábutigu hasáminaü lubáragiñe hadügün desidírü abíaguaü le.”* — ‘The leaders compute their thoughts before making a decision about the wicked deed.’.
