Academic teaching rationale

### águyagua *“to constantly move / to be in the act of moveing.”* The form **águyagua** is built upon the root *águya*, “to move” (The People's Garifuna Dictionary (Cayetano)). To it is joined the continuous/middle suffix *-gua*, which holds the subject in the ongoing act — 'to be constantly …-ing'. Taken whole, the word means precisely “to constantly move / to be in the act of moveing” — its gloss states the fully-inflected sense, never the bare meaning of the root. Set against its kin, **náguya** (“I move”); **báguya** (“you move”): 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 *“Águyagüda lumuti Mayumuragunti líbiri lídoun áüdü le lurúgabu bárana lun lóuchaha údüraü.”* — ‘Mayumuragunti relocated his brother to this village by the sea to fish.’. [FEED:verified_sentences] *The construction rests on Haurholm-Larsen 2016 §3.3.4 (-ti/-tu). 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.*
