According to J. Richard Andrews' book, Introduction to Classical Nahuatl,
the following translations may apply (colon indicates long vowel):

Note also that
TO:L-IN is "reed, rush, bulrush" as in TO:L-T-E:-CA-TL "an inhabitant of
Tollan"  or a "Toltec"
If TLA-TO:L-YA:O:-TL is really the construction of this word, then "discord"
is possibly glossed as "thing (property?) of a Toltec foe (warrior)"




Adding to a previous posting, Linda:


The -TO:L- of TLA-TO:L-YA:O:-TL is from /(i)hto:lli/ 'spoken word', and 
is not that same as that of TO:L-T-E:-CA-TL.


Best regards,

Michael McCafferty
