Classical Nahuatl (also known as Aztec, and simply Nahuatl) is any of the variants of the Nahuatl language that were spoken
in the Valley of Mexico — and central Mexico as a lingua franca — at the time of the 16th-century Spanish conquest of Mexico.
During the subsequent centuries it was largely displaced by Spanish and evolved into some of the modern Nahuatl dialects in
use today (other modern dialects descend more directly from other 16th-century variants. ) Although classified as an extinct
language, Classical Nahuatl has survived through a multitude of written sources transcribed by Nahuas and Spaniards in the
Latin script. |
