Rebecca Horn's notes from classes in Nahuatl with James Lockhart. Some of her note cards are harvested here by Stephanie Wood.
to stand by one's word, to follow through on a promise
in vain, or with no benefit
something worthless, useless
in vain, just in vain; for nothing (see Molina and Carochi)
a vain thing, or something superfluous (see Molina)
right here, just here (see Molina)
to cry without cause or reason
from nowhere
nowhere, from nowhere
no way
never again; at no time
in no way
I am naturally like this (see Molina)
I am just this way naturally, it is in my nature
right then, immediately, right away, at that time (see Molina)
to go around aimlessly, like a vagabond
to last only a few days (see Molina)
come here right now, come quickly
in the same way
