Other comments: Itunyoso Triqui has vigesimal numeral system similar to that of Copala Triqui.

1. Allomorphy

For numbers 1-6 and 11, Itunyoso Trique distinguishes counting numerals from quantifiers. The morphological reversal, /h/ is conditioned by the 1st person singular enclitic (DiCanio, 2010), but also occurs as a marker of nominal derivation with certain quantifiers.

Table 2. Morphological Reversal in Numeral Morphology

ŋɡoh¹³          ‘one       ŋɡoh¹³                       ‘one (pron.)’

ββih²           ‘two’      ββi¹³                          ‘two (pron.)’

βa²ʔnih²       ‘three’    βa¹ʔni³                       ‘three (pron.)’

kə̃²ʔə̃²          ‘four’      kə̃¹ʔə̃³                        ‘four (pron.)’

ũʔ²               ‘five’      ũ¹ʔũh³                        ‘five (pron.)’

βa²tə̃h²         ‘six’       βa¹tə̃h³                       ‘six (pron.)’

t͡ʃə̃¹              ‘eleven’   t͡ʃə̃²                           ‘eleven (pron.)’

Numerals with a coda /h/ undergo /h/ deletion when they are nominalized. If a numeral does not have a coda /h/, it undergoes /h/ addition when it is nominalized. While this morphological reversal is similar to the process which occurs with the 1st person singular, 1, 2 the reversal here is independent from tonal patterns in derivation. All underived quantifiers carry tone /13/, while all derived forms carry tone /2/. With the exception of /t͡ʃə̃¹/ ‘eleven’, which undergoes a nominal tonal derivation /1/ > /2/, no numeral above six undergoes any explicit morphophonological change when nominalized.
