Mixtec language
The Mixtec languages belong to the Otomanguean language family of Mexico, and are closely related to the Trique and Cuicatec languages. They are spoken by over half a million people.〔2000 census; the numbers are based on the number of total population for each group and the percentages of speakers given on the website of the Comisión Nacional para el Desarrollo de los Pueblos Indígenas, http://www.cdi.gob.mx/index.php?id_seccion=660, accessed 28 July 2008).〕 Identifying how many Mixtec languages there are in this complex dialect continuum poses challenges at the level of linguistic theory. Depending on the criteria for distinguishing dialects from languages, there may be as many as fifty Mixtec languages.〔According to the Summer Institute of Linguistics〕
== Language name ==
The name "Mixteco" is a Nahuatl exonym, from 'cloud' 'inhabitant of place of'.〔Campbell 1997:402)〕 Speakers of Mixtec use an expression (which varies by dialect) to refer to their own language, and this expression generally means "sound" or "word of the rain": ''dzaha dzavui'' in Classical Mixtec; or "word of the people of the rain", ''dzaha Ñudzahui (Dzaha Ñudzavui)'' in Classical Mixtec.
Denominations in various modern Mixtec languages include ''tu'un savi'' , ''tu'un isasi'' or ''isavi'' , ''tu'un va'a'' , ''tnu'u ñuu savi'' , ''tno'on dawi'' , ''sasau'' , ''sahan sau'' , ''sahin sau'' , ''sahan ntavi'' , ''tu'un dau'' , ''dahan davi'' , ''dañudavi'' , ''dehen dau'' , and ''dedavi'' .〔INALI, 2008: Segunda sección 84-Tercera sección 3)〕
