Frances Karttunen: 

MĀXIXITTOMŌNIĀ vrefl for blisters or bumps to appear on the hand / le levantan ampollas en la mano, ampolla la mano (T) [(3)Tp. 153]. Because of the distributive sense of this, a glottal stop is to be expected in the reduplication of XITTOMŌNIĀ, but none is attested, perhaps due to T’s characteristic tendency to lose internal glottal stops. See MĀXITTOMŌN(I).

MĀXIXITTOMŌNĪLŌ nonact. MĀXIXITTOMŌNIĀ
