For every regular language of nested words, the underlying strings form a context-free language, and every context-free language can be obtained in this way. Nested words and nested-word automata are generalized to motley words and motley-word automata. Every motley-word automation is equivalent to a deterministic one. For every regular language of motley words, the underlying strings form a finite intersection of context-free languages, and every finite intersection of context-free languages can be obtained in this way.
