21 Mayan languares are spoken
Although the official language is Spanish, it is not universally spoken among the indigenous population, or is often spoken as a second language; 21 distinct Mayan languages are still spoken, especially in rural areas, and Garifuna is spoken by a small number of people on the Caribbean coast.
Quichean-Mamean branch
In the Highlands of Guatemala are the Quichéan-Mamean Maya languages and dialects, including K'iche', Kaqchikel, Q'eqchi', Tz'utujil, and Mam.
In the Guatemalan highlands the Mayan language with the largest population, K'iche' (earlier spelled Quiché), is spoken by more than two million speakers (Ethnologue 2004). The famous Maya mythological document the Popol Wuj is written in an antiquated K'iche' often called Classical Quiché. The K'iche' language is centered around the towns Chichicastenango and Quetzaltenango, and in the Cuchumatán Highlands. The K'iche' culture was at its pinnacle at the time of the Spanish conquest with its economic and ceremonial center at the Utatlán archeological site outside of Chichicastenango.
The language Tz'utujil is spoken by ca. 90,000 speakers in the vicinities of the Lake Atitlán. And Kaqchikel with more than 300,000) is spoken near Guatemala City as well as north of lake Atitlan.
The Uspantek language is native only in municipio Uspantán, in the department El Quiché, but it is notable for being the native language of Nobel Peace Prize winner Rigoberta Menchú.
Achi is spoken in Cubulco and Rabinal, two municipios of Baja Verapaz. In some early classifications Achi is counted as K'iche' because of the close affiliation between those two languages. Linguist Raymond G. Gordon, Jr., considers the dialects spoken in Cubulco and Rabinal to be distinct languages, two of the eight languages of the Quiche-Achi family.[2].
Two other languages closely related to K'ich'e and Achi are the Sipakapense language is spoken in Sipacapa, San Marcos (department), and Sakapultek which is spoken by somewhat fewer than 40,000 people in El Quiché department and in Guatemala City.
The last Quichean language Q'eq'chi is spoken by some 400,000 speakers in the southern Petén and Alta Verapaz Departments of Guatemala as well as in Belize and El |
