Wolgemuth Carl. Náhuatl Grammar (Mecayapan and Tatahuicapan de Juárez, Veracruz

Publisher: SIL - Mexico
Publication date: 2007 (Second Edition)
Number of pages: 169The first edition of this Nahuatl grammar, published in 1981, was entitled Gramática náhuatl del municipio de Mecayapan, Veracruz. In the subsequent years, this township was divided, and the township of Tatahuicapan de Juárez was made a separate political entity. For this reason, the present, newly published edition bears the title Gramática náhuatl (mela’tájtol) de los municipios de Mecayapan y Tatahuicapan de Juárez, Veracruz.
The first edition contained a Spanish-Nahuatl dictionary that has not been included in the present edition because a new Diccionario náhuatl de los municipios de Mecayapan y Tatahuicapan de Juárez, Veracruz has recently been published as a separate volume. This newly publshed edition contains essentially the same grammatical information as the first, with the addition of a significant number of literal translations placed interlinearly between the model sentences in Nahuatl and the free translation into Spanish when the syntactic characeristics of the two languages are compared.
