I thought Nahuatl meant clear speechaccording to Leon-Portilla, I
think. No?

Subject: [Nahuat-l] "Nahuatl" and/as "dance"?
I just came across a definition in "Oxford Music Online" (in an article
on Mexican music by E. Thomas Stanford and Arturo Chamorro) that defines
Nahuatl as "sonorous, audible, council; law" AND "to dance embraced at
the neck."
Is anyone familiar with the second definition? Nahuatl as a "dance
embraced at the neck"? I don't see this definition in Molina, Siméon,
Karttunen and wonder if anyone knows where this association might come
from?
