Title: 26: Vocabulary of the Chontal language and its dialects spreading from Guatimala to Panama & Darien
Identifier(s): text:310678
Description: Comparative list of 31 words using Spanish orthography which the author compiled from the works of various travelers. Discusses languages throughout Central America. For many of the named languages it is unclear which Indigenous language it may refer to, as some may also be lumped together or misconstrued. Compares Chontal ("Tzendal" , Tzeltal?, or Chontal of Nicaragua?), Quiché (K'iche'), "Quaregua" ("Quiriguitta", Q'eqchi'?), and "Urraba" (west of Darien). He attempts to reduce 28 languages to 6: Chontal, Maya, Poconchi (Poqomchi), Nahuatl (Nawat), Teca, and Chica (Caichi).
