fua dafu

-fua dafu (canonical)
kufua dafu (infinitive)

Mara ya tatu na ya mwisho, Liti kutokana na kusalitiwa na mmoja wa washirika wake, hakufua dafu tena kwa Wajerumani ambao walimkamata yeye na mume wake, Nyalandu Mtinangi, wakauawa.

The third and last time, Liti —due to betrayal by one of her partners— once more did not succeed against the Germans, who arrested her and her husband Nyalandu Mtinangi, and they were killed.
