dialects

Did you know that? 4 of 33 original languages ​​survive in Guerrero
Náhuatl, Mixteco, Amuzgo and Tlapaneco, each with several dialects.
Of the 33 languages ​​spoken in Guerrero during the 16th century, only four survive today: Nahuatl, Mixtec, Amuzgo and Tlapaneco, which are divided into other dialects that show great vitality.


The missing languages ​​left no testimony, due in part to the fact that the priests who came to the area were responsible for catechizing the indigenous people and neglected their description.
