This video was recorded by Lindsay Williams in Pajumujuyup, Guatemala, where Carlos lives and works. K’iche’ is spoken by at least two million people, primarily in the Central American nation of Guatemala, and by diaspora communities worldwide. It is the second-most widely spoken language in Guatemala after Spanish, and the most widely spoken Mayan language of any country. It has been a literary language since at least the 16th century CE, when it featured prominently in Classical Mayan literature, such as the Popol Vuh, as well as other religious, mythological, and historical texts. Following the Spanish Conquest of America and subsequent centuries of Spanish-only education, literacy in K’iche decreased and remains relatively low today; however, thanks to the work of cultural activists, it has been recognized as an official minority language by the Guatemalan government. As a result, it is increasingly taught in schools and features ever more prominently in local media.

I hope this language never dies
Este no es un lenguaje, este es un dialecto.
@@berenice883 Fuck off
Edwa Juarez It’s a language you stupid fuck.All out of them have almost nothing in common.People like you say this, yet call Spanish a completely different from English, a language with over 40 % of the same vocabulary.It’s like saying Mandarin is the same as Japanese because they’re both languages spoken in Asia.
@@berenice883 Haber ¿dialecto de que idioma? porque de español no es
My grandparents 2nd language
I had a girlfriend who spoke this language it was awesome it always sounded awesome

Hola desde México! Estoy buscando alguien que me pueda traducir este texto en "Chinakuyu. Weta'm taj jas kab'ij. Xinkik'am loq chiri'. Kinchob'taj." Podrían ayudarme por favor. Gracias. Saludos
Significa "Perdóname, no sé qué dices, me trajeron aquí. No entiendo"
"Discúlpame, no se lo que me querés decir, a mí me trajeron aquí, yo no entiendo nada"
wow!
I speak kiche Spanish and English ask me a question
el Siquina How did you learn kiche? I’m trying to learn and would like to know unless of course its your native tongue?
Can you help me translate a document, we can pay
Est-ce tu parle français
Hi, how to read "najt" in Kiche? (means space-time)
Are mayan languages really similar to turkic languages?
Wow, is that how Guatemalans should sound if Spanish colonizer never set foot in their country? It kinda sounds like middle east/arabic/asian
Hearing a lot of Spanish.
SUM1 guess thats what it is for most speakers nowadays. Would a bit of linguistic purity do it some good?
Pan Terra you know, I'm not sure because when they were reviving Hebrew, they had to use words from other languages, or they had to make up words, because words did not exist in ancient Hebrew that exist now in languages such as English, German, and French. I imagine it's the same reason for our friend here. I don't think long words are a bad thing, then again I speak English which is a Germanic language made up heavily of romance words
Those are Kiche words which were loaned from Spanish.
It’s an ancient language with modern words incorporated into it. They don’t have words for certain things in their native language.
@@angelmiranda3072 Well, the do have these words lol. They just got loaned from Spanish. There is no difference between a loanword and a native word.
