The Importance of Our Indigenous Languages

According to the Instituto Nacional de Lenguas Indígenas (Inali), 364 linguistic variants are spoken by 68 Indigenous groups in Mexico. These languages come from 11 different linguistic families. With Indigenous languages, we manifest artistic, cultural, and political expressions of how people interpret and act. These expressions are reflected in Indigenous communities'practices,traditions, and rituals. The above implies that Indigenous languages are alive and part of humanity's legacy. They are preserved and passed down from generation to generation through their ancestors, mothers, and fathers.
