Flor y Canto Nahuatl now converges on two deliverables: a validated Modern Standard Nahuatl database, and Learn Modern Standard Nahuatl, the learner book that teaches MSN for reading, writing, prose, and poetry while preserving register discipline.
Database · Validation · Learner book
The project has one practical convergence point: a validated Modern Standard Nahuatl database and the final learner book, Learn Modern Standard Nahuatl. The database is the source of truth for forms, registers, source notes, examples, grammar decisions, and validation status. The book is the public synthesis that teaches people to read, write, publish, and compose in MSN responsibly.
Reviewers are being asked to validate the whole MSN standard: orthography, register boundaries, grammar, headwords, examples, prose readiness, poetic readiness, and learner-book readiness. The reviewer packet explains what we built, how we got here, and what decisions are needed.
Open reviewer care package →The final book, Learn Modern Standard Nahuatl, should teach MSN as a usable written language: how to read it, write paragraphs, write short books or prose, understand register labels, and begin poetry or literary work without blurring MSN with spoken EHN or classical citation forms.
Read the MSN target →The source-of-truth SQLite database is the Phase 8.6 primer database, with 37,146 entries, register labels, source tracking, primer data, and review status. Build dictionary tools, validation dashboards, learning apps, or book-production workflows from that canonical artifact.
Download canonical DB →The instructional track supplies learner sequencing, primer vocabulary, assessments, and model patterns. Its job is now to feed Learn Modern Standard Nahuatl once the database and reviewer decisions are stable enough for public teaching.
See the curriculum →Speech · Writing · Literature
Eastern Huasteca Nahuatl. The living spoken base drawn from community speech. All pronunciation, phonology, and conversational register grounded here.
Modern Standard Nahuatl. The neutral written reference norm for education, publishing, governance, and formal communication. Clear, consistent, teachable.
The elevated literary register for poetry, song, ceremony, and public oratory. Classical resonance with modern clarity. Where the language creates, not just communicates.
Open · Structured · Provenance-tracked
The data layer is now organized around one canonical SQLite database for MSN validation and publication. It merges historical and contemporary sources, preserves provenance, tracks registers, exposes review status, and supports the final learner book.
Earlier databases remain useful build snapshots. The canonical source of truth is the Phase 8.6 primer database at the normalized S3 database path.
Open · Bilingual · Proficiency-Mapped
The instructional pipeline turns EHN lesson evidence into staged learner material and MSN-facing primer infrastructure. It keeps spoken instruction, written standardization, and register labeling connected instead of letting them drift apart.
Its practical role is to feed Learn Modern Standard Nahuatl: sequence lessons, select public-safe vocabulary, generate exercises, and support examples that are validated against the source-of-truth database.
Alphabet, greetings, questions, names, numbers, colors, basic verbs, possessives, diminutives, household vocabulary, food, fields, conditional, non-specific objects.
Professions, past tense (three parts), city navigation, colors and numbers in context. Building toward independent sentence production.
Intransitive and transitive verbs, time division, family, appearance, reflexives, likes/dislikes, imperatives, market language, illness vocabulary, cleansing ceremonies.

The current FCN/MSN repository: source data, database manifests, MSN system exports, reviewer care package, and the Learn Modern Standard Nahuatl plan.
Direct S3 download for the Phase 8.6 source-of-truth SQLite database used for MSN validation and learner-book planning.
Concrete review assignment: input for reviewers, exact material to judge, SQL queries, and required output templates.
The CSV decision log reviewers should return, with review IDs for database, orthography, registers, lexicon, grammar, examples, prose, poetry, and the learner book.
The end-of-process learner book plan: what the book must teach, what it depends on, and what validation must happen first.
Checksums, S3 database prefix, and source-of-truth notes for the oversized SQLite artifacts.
