Nouns may be compounded from two or more nouns or a noun and a verb, and are usually right-headed. A compound noun is diagnosed by its stress pattern, with stress on the syllable preceding the first syllable of the final member. Some compounds, such as ka#tilán$aw’! ‘bread’, show postlexical nasal epenthesis (see §2.6.5.2). Some compound nouns incorporate body part prefixes. Most of my examples refer to plants or animals. ! -.!

Filomeno Mata Totonac has numerous deverbal nominalization constructions, most of them very productive, that derive 1. Agent nouns/subject nominalizations 2. Locations/times 3. Instruments 4. Purpose nouns 5. Result nouns 6. ‘Ought to’ constructions These constructions are generally accomplished by the suffixation of a nominalizer to a derived verb. The semantic type of the nominalization depends primarily upon the derivational affix and to a lesser extent on the specific nominalizing suffix selected. Within most of the construction types, a variety of nominalizers is possible, with the choice determined lexically for any particular construction. A few deverbal nouns are formed on the base of an underived verb root, mostly result nouns.
