Summary

A table comparing 26 words in the Chontal language collected by John Porter Bliss in 1871 from the community of San Miguel Ecatepec in the state of Oaxaca in Mexico, with other dialects of Chontal. Berendt copied Bliss's list from Francisco Pimentel's Cuadro descriptivo y comparativo de los lenguas indigenas de México (v. III, pp. 293-294) and added columns to compare equivalents that he himself collected from the Chontal of Tabasco and the Popoluca de Oluta and that Victor Noguera collected from the Popoluca and Chontal of Nicaragua.
