Frances Karttunen:
NŌNCUAHQUĪXTIĀ vt to set something apart, to make an exception of something / poner aparte por sí lo que se escoge, o sacar de regla general algo (M) This is implied by the reduplicated form NOHNŌNCUAHQUĪXTIĀ and is abundant in P, where the glottal stop is marked but not the long vowels. See NŌNCUAH, QUĪXTIĀ. Frances Karttunen, An Analytical Dictionary of Nahuatl (Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 1992), 173–174.
