- Although this topic might not apply for "Mexico", I'm excited to talk about Mexico's neighboring languages. El Salvador is part of the cultural region "Mesoamerica" , to which Mexico, and part of Central America used to belong to as well.
Nahuat (also known as Pipil Nahuat) is one the variants within the family of Nahuatl family and is very much related to the southernmost Nahuan variaties like the ones in Veracruz and Tabasco. Salvadoran Nahuat is in risk of dying out with around 300 native speakers, although the numbers and vitality of the language have looked up these last years with new speakers and language revitalization from different efforts. This nahuat has been influenced culturally and linguistically by the neighboring languages such as Mayan. Therefore, I'd like to present a general overview of the Nahuat language, its culture, its similarities and differences between the Nahuas found in Mexico and its unique features not found in its other sister languages, all from a linguistic point of view with special cultural comments.
I also want to talk briefly about the other two languages and their culture, Lencan and Cacaopera, that have gone extinct in El Salvador and belonged to the Lencan family and to a still living family, Misumalpan, respectively. They have totally different grammar and very interesting features, which is exciting for linguistics enthusiast.

Enorme esfuerzo. Gracias. Importante para entender nuestro pasado. Que se puede señalar de las poblaciones Lencas del hoy Departamento de Intibuca? antes Lempira?
Very interested. I’m Salvadoran also I had been studying about our culture for the last 2 years I’m not fully into it but yes I had been into some solid facts. and it’s crazy how we share a lot of cultures. You should look out at our AFRO - Salvadorans 🧬 and how we ALL shared this generic.
We are the most mestizo PEOPLE in all the Americas
Negative relative, Meztizo is a word that goes hand in hand with indigenous erasure
Westnam, You can't make sweeping statements like that about an entire population. What we know for sure is that we are indigenous and that our culture was diluted and erased.
Lenca ppl first to know of astrology, numerology, invented the the bow and arrow, soccer, etc… yet US and Europeans try to down grade us like __ being JAguar Warrior to then calling us Guancos. They can bite us but replicate us
Saludos🇳🇮🍁
Quisiera aprender Lenca con mi familia. Mi nieta asista una guardaría en una comunidad aquí en los eeuu en cual los niños están aprendiendo un idioma indígena de su herencia en Mexico. Mis hijos son de padre salvadoreño, del parte oriental de El Salvador donde -probablemente- ellos fueron al menos parcialmente de herencia Lenca. Creo k la guardería nos fomentaría seguirlo. Estoy recogiendo fuentes de información para lograr esta meta. Mis idiomas son inglés (hablante nativo), francés (estudiante por años pero no fluente), castellano / español (aprendido informalmente y medio dominado) y frases claves en arabe, mandarín, portugués, alemán, cantante de música coral (entonces puedo cantar - más o menos - en varios idiomas sin intender más k el sentido general 🤣 y con pronunciación así así )
Is Nahuat same symbols as the American alphabet? Thought it’d be more like some Orr of Chinese symbols or Egyptian hieroglyphics
For Salvadoran Nahuat, there are no traces of ancient writing because they might have been erased by the Spaniards on their arrival and conquest. Although there are certain hints that they used a kind of writing similar to that of Mexicas in Mexico.
Todas las costumbres aztecas Mexicas tenian estos salvadoreños cuzcatlecos nahuat una variante del nahuatl mexicano
Kotik!
So you made a video on everyone else and in a set of time but for Lencas you don’t have time??? Typical. Lencas deserve better
Los lencas eran gay
