Thank you for the interesting examples,

I'm puzzled by

      tlatquihua[h]toc              those who have property
          -t[i]oc only compounds with the preterit form of verbs;

1) Why is it translated as plural?
2) What is the semantic difference between /tlatquihuah/ and 
/tlatquihuahtoc/ ?
Maybe the latter has an inceptive or graduative value in the sense of 
"being in the course of becoming an owner of property"...?

Greetings,
Henry
