Chiapanec

Chiapanec

Chiapanec is the name of an indigenous Mexican language of the Oto-Manguean linguistic family. In 1990 the Ethnologue [ [http://www.ethnologue.com/show_language.asp?code=cip Ethnologue report for language code:cip ] ] reported 17 living speakers of the language in southern Chiapas but since later investigations failed to find any speakers at all it is now considered to be probably extinct by experts on the Oto-Manguean languages [ [http://listserv.linguistlist.org/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0403&L=otomanguean-l&F=&S=&P=536 LISTSERV 14.4 ] ] .
