Well,

Ha! Great (or perhaps, Childish) Minds Think Alike.....much the same process
produced Kash _furi-finja_ (some time back, too).  Furik is 'hide', _minja_
is 'seek, look for everywhere'.  f~m is not a regular alternation-- the
sequence usually goes f - p - mb, the reverse is possible too-- but at least
they're both in the labial series.
Actually, *fumbrinja (/fur-minja/)would have been the regular compound form;
*furi-pinja (<furik-minja) a possible one (stop-nasal > stop at the nasal
position), but from there it's a short step to /f/.

How about this game:  Let's play tag.  You're "it"!
Kash: ará mi/yama-lipa.  hat e mesa!
     let's we/run-catch.  You ART one
(lipa = lipat 'catch, capture'; yama-lipa might be deformed to _yandipá_)
