Although there may still be a million speakers of > Nahuatl, it is not being transmitted to a new generation. But there is an > attempt to revive Nahuatl in New York City, and students eager to connect > to their heritage are taking classes. > The tropes of this short overview left my thoughts reeling (rural v. urban, burning of literature, etc) as well as questioning their accuracy. Two comments: 1) A fairly US-American point of view, perhaps a diaspora perspective. Plenty of Nahuatl in the Zocalo in the past year, at least in the events I go to :). 2) From the position of a a hyperglot: a serious attempt at well-done computer aided learning tools, carefully matched to those who would use them, might accomplish quite a bit.

Both are excellent, I think, but PhD is wider and certainly more elaborated (the only problem is that it is in French). The Master thesis is in Spanish. She also has many articles on colors. She sends her work if somebody wants to know it, but she asks for a personal contact.
