They are still variables in that they change every time a given function is invoked.

Every usage of a program with a unique set of inputs gives one unique set of outputs. All context must be offered.

Aperinyú, ola motana hé sarnoza vóe soka. Apozelinyú, te h'éthelsofekíarha il onveredzhekwíai vóe soka.
In theory, this is elegant and morally desirable. In practice, it is the masturbation of mathematicians.

Just made this up in view of the occasion:
kimb- kolunas /kɪmb- kolunas/, idiom: be sleepless (lit. 'hunt the moon') – Ang hiyāy pinamya kimbyam kolunas. I'm tossing in bed sleeplessly.

I wonder if I should make kimbyam kolunas as a VP attract the main verb VP, so you get
Pinamyabed-LOC angAT hiyāyroll-1SG.T kimbyamhunt-PTCP kolunas.moon-P
'I roll in bed hunting/to hunt the moon.'
