  Mojeño Trinitario (Arawak, Bolivia) shows a very large repertoire of nominalization strategies. It includes : i) 9 dedicated nominalizing suffixes on verbs; ii) an unmarked strategy where a finite clause is simply preceded by a determiner; iii) the use of a derivational suffix followed by a multifunctional classifier. This talk offers the first detailed overview of the diversity of nominalization strategies at three levels of analysis (semantic, morphosyntactic and functional) on the basis of a corpus of natural and elicited data collected by the author in the field over 15 years.
