Note 373 — PART IV. LINGUISTIC. (continued 2)

There is another word in Nahuatl of similar derivation. It is pohui, to make much of a person, to like one. The root is po, which carries with it the idea of sameness, similarity or equality; as itelpocapo, a boy like himself. (Paredes, Promptuario Manual Mexicano, p. 140.)
