Catalog of indigenous languages in Mexico

[Don Osborn]

Hi Mia, Yes the first URL requires a login (Facebook; sorry for not making
that clear) but that is not critical - it's just where I saw the reference
to the second URL, for the article.

 

Of course Francisco Marmolejo's pointers are the substance of the matter.
How many countries have done what Mexico has in one form or another? In many
cases, and for various reasons, it has been foreign linguists and agencies
like SIL which have done much of the work. While such outside-initiated
efforts are vital, especially when there is nothing else, it doesn't seem to
substitute for national initiative and data gathering, and can't take the
place of policy to do something with the results.
