Frances Karttunen: 

OHHUIYŌ-TL matters having to do with roads / cosa de caminos [(K) [(1)Cf.53r,(1)Rp.44]. This is an abstract noun de-rived from OH-TLI. Neither attestation is specifically glossed, but the gloss given here parallels the others in the same section in C. This contrasts with OHUIHCĀYŌ-TL 'danger, difficulty.' See OH-TLI, -YŌ.
