    "My name is Cecilia Tuyuc.

    I am an indigenous digital language activist.

    I am a teacher, and, for the most part, I teach the Maya-Kaqchiquel language, which is spoken in Guatemala. And, right now, I'm in San Juan Comalapa, which is located in Guatemala.

    And I'm pleased to be in this space, on Radio Aula Mundi, to share some of the information about what has been done about the revitalization of the Mayan languages, and especially Kaqchiquel."

    "What concepts of time, weather, seasons, and so on do you have in your language?"

    "Yes, it’s exactly the way you say.

    Take greetings, for example.

    I don’t know, in Spanish, it is ‘buenos días’, ‘buenas tardes’, ‘buenas noches’ (good morning, good afternoon, good evening, good night).

    But in Kaqchiquel, for example, we say ‘it’s dawn already’, as if we notified the other person.

    So, it’s like ‘dawn has arrived, may it arrive well for you’. And it’s the same for the evening, or late afternoon. We would say ‘the sun has gone down’, or ‘it is dusk’.

    And for ‘good night’, we would say ‘it has gotten dark’. And so, we would use these phrases to indicate time. And, for the precise time, for the hour, we would use numbers and match them with those phrases.

    For example, right now, it is nine in the morning here, in Guatemala.

    And so, the way we would say it is ‘dawn has arrived, and it is nine’. So, in this case, we match a number with the time of the day; the morning, the afternoon, the evening…

    And, for the weather, we refer to the sun.

    And so, for summer, we would say ‘it is sunny’.

    And, for winter, we would say ‘it is raining hard’, because here, in Guatemala, we only have two seasons, summer or winter, or the sunny season and the rainy season.

    But then, there are also microclimates, which we also tend to match with these kinds of phrases."

  • Question for Hataałii: "What’s your first musical memory?"

    Hataałii is a Diné (Navajo) singer, songwriter, and poet born Hataałiinez Wheeler in Window Rock, AZ, the capital of the Navajo Nation.

    His name comes from the Navajo term ‘hatałii’, also spelled ‘yataalii’, which means ‘singer’ in English. Singers are medicine men who perform traditional healing ceremonies and blessing rites intended to protect and cure the body, mind, and spirit.

    Hataałii's music focuses on obscurantist details giving way to trenchant observations about paranoia, accountability, and postcolonial fallout. Hataałii also confronts the nuanced challenges and perceptions around the indigenous community.

    He currently resides in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

  • Floyd Favel explains symbols in the Plains Indian Sign Language (PISL) and Cree…

    Floyd Favel (Plains Cree from Poundmaker Cree Nation) is a theater artist, educator, knowledge keeper, and writer.

    Plains Indian Sign Language (PISL), or Hand Talk, was a complex means of communication in North America.

    PISL plays an important role in Favel’s research, as well as in the annual Poundmaker Indigenous Performance Festival directed by Favel.

    “Floyd Favel clearly prides himself in his knowledge of the Cree language as his mother tongue and first language before English and indicates that the Plains Sign Language is his second language, also before English. He is going to tell us more about the Plains Sign Language and sign language in general, which has been around since the beginning of mankind.”
