This means "Some event ''e'' of me working takes place, and ''e'' occurs frequently." But a single event can't occur frequently, and we might not have intended to claim that we're working in the contextual now. You have to say {{t|Daqfaı, ꝡä guaı jí}}. Or you can say {{t|Guaı jí, gö daqfaı hóa}}.
This means "Some event ''e'' of me working takes place, and ''e'' occurs frequently." But a single event can't occur frequently, and we might not have intended to make a claim about any work taking place, just about the frequency. You have to say {{t|Daqfaı, ꝡä guaı jí}}. You can also use a [[serial verb]]: {{t|Daqfaı guaı jí}}. Or you can say {{t|Guaı jí, gö daqfaı hóa}}.
