MEXICAN INDIGENOUS LANGUAGES

[@boredstudent]

As a Mexican myself, I'm glad that the indigenous languages of my birth country are represented here. Yucatec was also spoken in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

I really love the design of the background and the customes

[@robertoramirezgonzalez5469]

Thanks ILoveLanguages, I'm mexican and I'm learning central nahuatl and yucatec.

[@ggarzagarcia]

If I’m correct, Andy, we have 4 different language families represented. Correct?
Thank you for showing off my country today 🇲🇽

[@ilovelanguages0124]

Yes! ✨✨✨✨

I come from a region that speaks a Nahuatl dialect (Because the one you showcase it's the official, but there are some dialects) and you'll be surprised that in some regions of Veracruz, there are people speaking Nahuatl with Totonac influence, it's funny for us because obviously is like a Saudi Arabian speaker struggling with the Moroccan dialect hahaha but it's really beautiful once you realize that as indigenous we also interact and influence each other, also there's Mayan influence in some of the Nahuatl grammar dating from the 15th century, Mixtec ufff... I really don't get a single word hahahaha too far from me

[@connormurphy683]

What region do you come from and what region are you talking about that speaks nahuatl with totonac influence?

i actually started to think that humans originally sounds like middle eastern or europeans, because both europeans and mid east also has less vocal letters between the silent letters

[@connormurphy683]

Would love if you could do rare/recently extinct Mesoamerican languages such as Lenca, Xinca, Tol, Cuitlatec, Pochutec, Chontal de Oaxaca, Chiapanec, Mangue, Sutiaba or similar Andean languages such as Culle, Mochica, Leco, Uru, Puquina.

[@lisasutherland-fraser4479]

Mixtec definitely has a Native American sound to it. Maybe the nasals. The others more different. Fascinating. Thank you Andy xx

[@monkeypie8701]

I can definitely see how the Nahuan languages and Other Uto-Aztecan languages have helped form the Mexican Accent in Spanish, and likely even into English seperating Mexican English Accents from other Spanish Speakers that learnt English

[@la76521]

Andy, there’s a language spoken in Mexico which is called “Fraylescano” and it is Ladino language + Mayan, could you try to make a video about this language? 🙏🏻

[@raflykato1789]

i think it is one of the dialects of the maya language

[@Morrisseys7thFriend]

I remember when I was doing volunteer work with the Latino community in central California, there were a lot of immigrants from Oaxaca who could only speak Mixtec and virtually no Spanish.

[@Sergio.493]

Me and my family are proud to be mixtec 8 venados

[@rvat2003]

[@paulochon7692]

I didn't know they survived, great news !!!

[@victorcano1289]

More than 1 million nahua speakers, close to a million maya yucatec (though the most spoken maya language is K'iche' maya with 1.1 million in guatemala), half million mixtec and 260k totonac speakers. Also not mentioned in this video, but P'urepecha 140k speakers, Otomi 300k and Zapotec 490k speakers. Most of these ethnic groups also built their own civs with kingdoms, large urban centers and own religions.

[@Enno9]

It sounds like Achtung😂

[@TheOfficialNathanMacLeod]

Wow they definitely sound similar to mexican Spanish to me. Anyone know why that might be? Not sure who would have influenced who. It maybe it was both ways

[@josearana9726]

El náhuatl tuvo influencia en el español ya que de esa lengua provienen algunas palabras, como tomate, chocolate, aguacate, etc. A su vez, el español influyó en el náhuatl ya que algunas palabras fueron adoptadas porque no existían en el vocabulario náhuatl. El acento náhuatl influyó también en el español porque el acento del centro de México (Ciudad de México, Morelos y el Estado de México) tiene ese mismo acento.

[@victorcano1289]

Because languages do not only have phonetics and pronunciation. They have also cadence, intonation and inflections. Most people tend to interpolate those aspects of their speech into the second language they acquire. You may notice how indians or chinese speek english as a second language, and though most might be fluent in english they retain the aspects I mentioned above, that is what makes an "accent". The same happened with native mexicans when they acquired spanish as a second language.

(I'm *not* implying anything, but) the numbers of Totonac sound strangely similar to Indo-European! if you remove the "akg" part at the beginning of each numeral, there are some pretty cool (likely) coincidences!
TOTONAC - P.I.E. - ENGLISH - SPANISH
tum - *óynos - one - uno
túy - *dwóh₁ - two - dos
tutu - *tréyes - three - tres
tati - *kʷetwóres - four - cuatro
kitsis - *penkʷe - five - cinco
chaxán - *s(w)eḱs - six - seis
tujún - *septm̥ - seven - siete
tsayán - *oḱtō - eight - ocho
najatsa - *(h₁)newn̥ - nine - nueve
káw - *deḱm̥(t) - ten - diez
