Here are some additional fine-tuning, I hope. :)<br>

> 1. Cozahua' is a verbal particle related to "getting yellow"<br>
<br>
<br>
In "classical" Nahuatl a transitive verb something like this exists:<br>
tlacoze:hua 'he/she makes something yellow'...basically to "ehua" <br>
something in a yellow way "coz-". But from your examples below I <br>
understand neither the morphology or the grammaticality of "cozahua". <br>
Could you go into those?<br>
<br>
My general thinking at the moment is that it's certainly interesting <br>
what you say below, but I think we need more data to establish the <br>
meaning of this place name.<br>
<br>
At the same time, there are definitely other people on this list who <br>
could add light to this discussion, I would think.<br>
<br>
In the meantime, I've added a couple of extra comments below,<br>
<br>
All the best,<br>

> 2. Cozahuac means "yellowish"<br>
<br>
What are the constitutent morphemes?<br>
<br>
coz- 'yellow'<br>
<br>
???? -------<br>

> 3. Firs meaning: talcozahua' (NC=tlalcozahua') => earth that is<br>
> getting yellow<br>
<br>
There is in "classical," cozahui:ya 'to get yellow'<br>
<br>
tla:lli in cozahui:ya 'earth that is getting yellow'<br>
<br>
I would imagine *tla:lcozahui:ya would mean something like becoming the <br>
yellow associated with soil.<br>
<br>
><br>
> 4. Second meaning: talcozahuac (NC= tlalcozahuac) => earth that is<br>
> yellowish<br>
><br>
<br>
Following your examples below, "tlalcozahuac" would actually mean<br>
<br>
'it got yellow in a soil way'<br>
<br>
<br>
> 5. Examples that may aid to understand it: Huitzil-opochtli =<br>
> hummingbird that is left-handed;<br>
<br>
<br>
Cuauh-temoc = Eagle that has descendet;<br>
<br>
This actually means 'he descended like an eagle'...."he <br>
eagle-descended", ...neither like a falcon, nor a swallow, whatever, <br>
but like an eagle. It's very wonderful name as given names go, don't <br>
you think?<br>
