"The Mirror Emits Fumes."
In a post to the Association of Nahuatl Scholars on Facebook (29 May 2026) John Sullivan writes: "It's tēzcatl ihpōca 'the mirror emits fumes', probably reinterpreted as a present agentive noun in order to render the name of the deity. [J. Richard] Andrews deals with ihpōca in his grammar (2003: 269-70). Joe [Joseph Campbell] has commented on the use of ih- with verbs, meaning 'to perform an action with skill', but this is in turn related [to] the idea of breath and its function as a vehicle for the transmission of tonalli."
