Eastern Huasteca Nahuatl is a member of the Aztecan (Nahuan) branch of the Uto-Aztecan language spoken. It is spoken by about 493,000 people in the north of the state of Veracruz in southern Mexico.
Eastern Huasteca Nahuatl is closely related to Central Huasteca Nahuatl and Western Huasteca Nahuatl, and all three are classified as one language, Huasteca Nahuatl, in some sources. There is a high degree of mutual intelligibility between them. Eastern Huasteca Nahuatl is also known as Eastern Huasteca Aztec, Náhuatl de Hidalgo, Náhuatl de la Huasteca Oriental or Southeastern Huasteca Nahuatl.
Ways to write Nahuatl languages with the Latin alphabet were developed by linguists in the 1970s, and there are currently several orthographies for Eastern Huasteca Nahuatl developed by the Instituto de Docencia e Investigación Etnológica de Zacatecas (IDIEZ), Mexican government publications, and the Summer Institute of Linguistics (SIL).
