MOTTA to be visible / se ve, visible (Z) [(5)Zp.72,90,128,130]. Two of the attestations in Z have a long vowel in the first syllable, but it should be short, since this is the reflexive form of (I)TTA. AHMŌ MOTTA has the sense ‘to be invisible, hidden.’ See (I)TTA. Frances Karttunen, An Analytical Dictionary of Nahuatl (Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 1992), 153.
