Mexicans forgot.

I find it pretty interesting that my fellow compatriots up north forget that this language is spoken by at least 1.5mil people.

I've seen far more interest from non native anglo north americans in Nahuatl that people that live in México and speak exclusively Spanish.

So yeah, are we allowed to have Spanish conversations here, is the community English exclusive?

Hola, amigo. El contenido en español es bienvenido aquí.
- Also, discussion of modern varieties of Nahuatl is welcome and encouraged.
I'm from North of the border and have noticed this, too. Except it is usually the younger ones who are interested, the older ones almost never do. When I started dating my wife I asked her children's grandmother what she thought about me teaching them a native language (Tzotzil Maya as that is what I know the best), and she asked "if that will help them make money". which I think is sad.

Can't really think of much else, I am in quite a bit of pain and my mind is not good at thinking right now.
- I hope you get to teach it to someone! 🥰
