Yes  Germaine: à ceci près que la règle veut que ça s'écrive "antimasque" (sans trait d'union). https://www.google.com/search?q=antimasque&rlz=1C1CHBF_frCA9...

  -> Oui Germaine, la règle générale est d'écrire en un seul mot les mots composés du préfixe anti suivi d'un nom ou d'un adjectif. anti&masque n'échappe pas à cette règle même si on voit les 2 formes.
