Frances Karttunen: 

MAHUIZOĀ vt to marvel at something, to observe something / admirarse (M), estar sorprendido (S), lo divierte (T) lo observa (Z) This is abundantly attested across sources. It contrasts with intransitive MAHUIZOHUA ‘to receive honor’ not only in preterit formation but also in that in C the intransitive is sometimes represented with a geminate ZZ. This may be the basic form, with the single Z the result of degemination. S combines the transitive and intransitive verbs in a single entry, while M separates them in contiguous entries. See MAHUIZ-TLI. MAHUIZALHUIĀ applic. MAHUIZOĀ MAHUIZŌLŌ nonact. MAHUIZOĀ
