Academic teaching rationale

### waguatiburiha *“he would habitually shout / he usually shouts.”* The form **waguatiburiha** is built upon the root *wagua*, “to shout” (The People's Garifuna Dictionary (Cayetano)). To it are joined the third-person masculine ('he') agreement suffix *-ti*, which fixes the subject as third-person masculine ('he'); then the habitual suffix *-buriha*, which makes the action one's customary practice — 'would usually, habitually, as a rule'. Taken whole, the word means precisely “he would habitually shout / he usually shouts” — its gloss states the fully-inflected sense, never the bare meaning of the root. Placed beside its siblings, **nwagua** (“I shout”); **bwagua** (“you shout”): 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 *“adia, entonces si waguaruti ora to lun gawara bei lan lagambuniwa”* — ‘right, therefore we will sing it now so it can be heard’. [elar_sg0340_eaf_gold_annotations_43] *The construction rests on Haurholm-Larsen 2016 §3.3.4 (-ti/-tu); MARAGAÑ (Shaka) MAGARADA 2026-06-24 (eibuga aspect family: -dugu frequentative / -gubeiyein perfect-continuous).
