The dialect spoken in one community in Northern Puebla is in focus in the following. Basic typological features of this dialect are presented. A valency system based on verb derivation is outlined. A conceptual approach to valency is adopted, and it leads to no recognition of anti-passive in Nawatl. A suffix, ta/te:, the function of which is to broadly suspend referentiality to subject, object, and possessor, is presented. Reduplication is shown to be equally broadly used with several meanings. A brief presentation of a second Nawatl dialect shows that Nawatl dialects cannot all be said to display equally strong polysynthetic features.</p>

The article is organized as follows: the present section gives basics about the language and necessary information about its morphosyntax. Section 2 deals with a feature of Nauatl, suspension of syntactic reference, which is given some space because it is a pervasive feature of the language and basic for the distinction between the two applicatives. Section 3 describes the formation and the use of the two applicatives.
