[Nahuat-l] question on Spanish/Nahuatl "language"

[Ian Robertson]

Hello all,

An important study on recent linguistic practices involving Nahuatl and 
Spanish is the following:

Hill, Jane H. and Kenneth C. Hill
    1986    Speaking Mexicano: Dynamics of Syncretic Language in Central 
Mexico. University of Arizona Press, Tucson.

For earlier periods, I would recommend:

Karttunen, Frances and James Lockhart
    1976    Nahuatl in the Middle Years: Language Contact Phenomena in 
Texts of the Colonial Period. University of California Publications in 
Linguistics 85. University of California Press, Berkeley.

Best,

Ian Robertson
