Nahua peoples

The Nahuas () are a group of indigenous people of Mexico and El Salvador. Their language of Uto-Aztecan affiliation is called Nahuatl and consists of many more dialects and variants, a number of which are mutually unintelligible. About 1,500,000 Nahua speak Nahuatl and another 1,000,000 speak only Spanish. Less than 1,000 native speakers remain in El Salvador.〔http://www.endangeredlanguages.com/lang/ppl〕
Evidence suggests the Nahua peoples originated in Aridoamerica, in regions of the present day northwestern Mexico. They split off from the other Uto-Aztecan speaking peoples and migrated into central Mexico around 500 CE. They settled in and around the Basin of Mexico and spread out to become the dominant people in central Mexico.
==Nomenclature==
The name Nahua is derived from the Nahuatl word-root ''nāhua-'' , which generally means "audible, intelligible, clear" with different derivations including "language" (hence ''nāhuat(i)'' "to speak clearly" and ''nāhuatl'' both "something that makes an agreeble sound" and "someone who speaks well or speak one's own language").〔Kartunnen 1992, p. 157-158.〕 It was used in contrast with ''popoloca'' , "to speak unintelligibly" or "speak a foreign language".〔Kartunnen 1992, p. 203.〕 Another, related term is Nāhuatlācatl (singular) or Nāhuatlācah (plural) literally "Nahuatl-speaking people".〔
The Nahuas are also sometimes referred to as Aztecs. Using this term for the Nahuas has generally fallen out of favor in scholarship, though it is still used for the Aztec Empire. They have also been called Mēxihcatl (singular), Mēxihcah (plural)〔Kartunnen 1992, p. 145.〕 or in Spanish Mexicano(s) (:mexiˈkano(s)) "Mexicans", after the Mexica, the Nahua tribe which founded and predominated in the Aztec empire.
