·     The form mayuy is not an inflected verb, like puluy, jubuy, tzutzuy – it is just a noun meaning “mist”; pul, jub, tzutz are verbs of motion or change of state, with suffix yi, resulting in a <matching_vowel>-y; also as in t’abay, ehmey, lok’oy. So if it were based on a verb may, it would be mayay and not *mayuy anyway.

·     Occurs in the context of:
