Indigenous Mesoamerican varieties and dialects we handle

Mixtec (Mixteco)

Spoken across Oaxaca, Guerrero, and Puebla in Mexico. Mixtec is not a single language but a family of dozens of varieties, many not mutually intelligible. For interpretation, the specific variant (San Juan Mixtepec, San Pedro Tututepec, Tlaxiaco, etc.) often matters. Tell the dispatcher the village or municipality of origin.

Triqui (Triki)

Spoken in northwestern Oaxaca. Three main variants (Copala, Itunyoso, Chicahuaxtla), not fully mutually intelligible. The Triqui-American agricultural workforce in California is significant.

Zapotec (Zapoteco)

Spoken across Oaxaca, with many regional varieties (Isthmus, Valley, Sierra Norte, Sierra Sur). Specific variant matters for accurate interpretation.

Quiché (K'iche')

The largest Mayan language by speaker population. Spoken in highland Guatemala (Quetzaltenango, Totonicapán, El Quiché). Important for Guatemalan asylum cases.
