In a situation like the one described here, "The Huave people . . . call themselves Ikoots, meaning "us" — refer to their language as ombeayiiüts, meaning "our language", wouldn't it be better to say "The Huave people have no name for their language or for their ethnic group, referring to themselves simply as "us" (Ikoots) and to their language as "our language" (ombeayiiüts)"? Is there some sense in which Ikoots and ombeayiiüts function as proper nouns in the language?
In the mid-1970's, according to some of the more litterate among Tehuanos (inhabitants of Tehuantepec), the Huaves came from the south by sea migration. This is still what the Mexican government seems to think: Enciclopedia de los Municipios de México: ESTADO DE OAXACA: SAN MATEO DEL MAR. Local cultural authorities do too: Oaxaca Turist Guide: Pueblos Indígenas: Huaves Can this be substantiated, or at least mentioned? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Michel Tavir ( talk • contribs) 10:01, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

So am I to understand that "coya" means "rabbit"? That's similar to Proto-Mixe-Zoquean *koya (Wichmann 1995). Does anyone know if that's loanword or a legit cognate? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.1.158.251 ( talk) 07:20, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
