Summary
Vocabulary list of approximately 160 entries in Chinantec and Spanish, compiled by C. Hermann Berendt, evidently drawn from Nicolás de la Barreda's work entitled Doctrina christiana en lengua chinanteca, published in 1730. (For Berendt's copy of that work, see Ms. Coll. 700, Item 97.) Some entries consist only of a cross-reference to a different entry; a Spanish equivalent is wanting for some of the main entries. Included in some cases is a reference to what is apparently the page number in Barreda's work where the word is found; such references are confined to pages 1 to 3 of Barreda's work. The leaves of the manuscript had originally been folded in half to form a gathering; currently, they are laid flat, corresponding to how they are intended to be viewed, and are stored in a map drawer.
