The Ch'orti' language (sometimes also Chorti) is a Mayan language, spoken by the indigenous Maya people who are also known
as the Ch'orti' or Ch'orti' Maya. Ch'orti' is a direct descendant of the Classic Maya language in which many of the pre-Columbian
inscriptions using the Maya script were written. This Classic Maya language is also attested in a number of inscriptions made
in regions whose inhabitants most likely spoke a different Mayan language variant, including the ancestor of Yukatek Maya.
Ch'orti' is spoken mainly in and around Jocotán and Camotán, Chiquimula department, Guatemala, as well as adjacent areas of
parts of western Honduras near the Copan Ruins. |
