·    Tokovinine doesn’t say where the toponym is in AT-E1168-lecture11.t0:07:21, but the information that it’s Pomona, Tabasco is available from M&G.p19.c3.r6 and Martin-AMP.p397.r1.c3.

·    Pronunciation is given in Martin-AMP.p397.r1.c3 as pakbuul? (the second syllable is a long-u, but with question mark), while Tokovinine only gives it when speaking, with no transcription (so it’s difficult to know if -bul, -buul, -buhl, etc is intended).
