āhuiya
IPAspelling: 
ɑːwiyɑ
Frances Karttunen: 

ĀHUIY(A) pret: ĀHUĪX to be happy, content / tener lo necesario y estar contento (M) C attests the preterit twice, once with the vowel long and once with it unmarked for length. Elsewhere the lengthening of this vowel in the preterit of verbs ending in IY(A) is well attested. Derivations from ĀHUIY(A) have the somewhat divergent senses of 'contentment, happiness' and 'self-indulgence, loose behavior, waste.'
