### akuisirahumai *“you all hold tightly.”* The form **akuisirahumai** is built upon the root *akuisira*, “to hold tightly” (NISAMINA master dictionary). To it is joined the modal person suffix *-humai*, placing second-person plural ('you all') within the modal (irrealis) series. Taken whole, the word means precisely “you all hold tightly” — its gloss states the fully-inflected sense, never the bare meaning of the root. Placed beside its siblings, **nakuisira** (“I hold tightly”); **bakuisira** (“you hold tightly”): 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. *The construction rests on MARAGAÑ (Shaka) MAGARADA 2026-06-24 (modal/optative paradigm, root ex. aguyaguda). 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.*
