Machiotlahtololiztli Machiotlahtololiztli

Machiotlahtololiztli is an alphasyllabary or abugida devised by Ed Trager as an alternative way to write Nahuatl, an Uto-Aztecan language spoken mainly in central Mexico. It was inspired by the Tai Tham script, and other scripts of South and Southeast Asia, and is designed to make Nahuatl easier to read and write.
