Padre Sahagun speaks of the Aztec priests who cast lots with little cords knotted together: "Que hechan suertes con unas cordezuelas que atan unas con otros que llaman Mecatlapouhque.
Two suertes of dry, and two of irrigable land, were given to each family.
One fourth of the suertes were left vacant, as realangas or government lands, while a number, called propios, were reserved for municipal expenses.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "suertes" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
