Loans in Colonial and Modern Nahuatl: A Contextual Dictionary (Trends in Linguistics. Documentation [TiLDOC], 35)

by John Sullivan, Julia Madajczak, Justyna Olko, et al.

The dictionary expands on the original idea of Karttunen and Lockhart to map the usage of loans in Nahuatl, by using a much larger and diversified corpus of sources, and by including contextual use, missing in earlier studies. Most importantly, these sources enrich the colonial corpus with modern data - significantly expanding on our knowledge on language continuity and change.
