TLATEQUIPANŌLIZTICA by means of labor / con… trabajo (C)[(1)Cf.49r]. This conventionally pairs with CIAHUIZTICA ‘by fatigue’ both in possessed form, the sense of the phrase being equivalent to the English phrase ‘by the sweat of one’s brow.’ See TLATEQUIPANŌLIZ-TLI, -CA Frances Karttunen, An Analytical Dictionary of Nahuatl (Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 1992), 296.
