book from Amazon with a promising (albeit choppy) title: “Vocabulario

Newberry Library”, edited by Lambert M. Surhone, Miriam T. Timpledon, and
Susan F. Marseken (Lexington: Betascript Publishing, 2010). The cost was $67

my hands as I write. Page 1 has a very brief Wikipedia article about Ayer
ms. 1478, a manuscript copy of Nebrija’s Spanish-Latin dictionary, with a
translation of each entry into Nahuatl. There is nothing else in the book
regarding this manuscript. The rest of the content consists of Wikipedia
articles on: “Spanish language,” “Manuscript,” “Antonio de Nebrija,”
“Nahuatl,” “Newberry Library,” “Chicago,” “Illinois,” “Cuneiform script,”
“Inscription,” “Typewriter,” and “Manuscript
format.”<O:P></O:P></SPAN></DIV>
