Tzotzil language

Encyclopedia : T : TZ : TZO : Tzotzil language

Tzotzil is a Maya language spoken in Chiapas, Mexico. Tzeltal is the most closely related language to Tzzotzil and together they form a Tzeltalan sub-branch of the Mayan language family. Tzeltal, Tzotzil and Chol are the most widely-spoken languages in Chiapas. Unlike Ch'ol, which features split-ergativity, Tzeltal and Tzotzil are fully morphologically ergative.
