que después de ver lo que se ha planteado estés de acuerdo y podamos trabajar juntos para poner en marcha este proyecto. Creo que será posible lograr de alguna manera que haya participación de hablantes nativos en este proyecto aunque se tenga que hacer, al menos en parte, de una forma gradual y mediada. Todavía quedan hablantes, aunque pocos como dices, pero en general son personas mayores con poca a nula alfabetización, poquísimos recursos económicos, y prácticamente sin acceso a medios electrónicos. Pero como resultado de la labor conjunta de personas interesadas en la recuperación del náhuat durante los últimos años, estoy, y asociados míos están, en contacto con hablantes nativos, con quienes hemos aprendido su idioma, conversado, colaborado y compartido diversos proyectos relacionados con la lengua. Es decir, existe una red de contactos, de información y de colaboración que abarca tanto a hablantes nativos como a personas que pueden colaborar en el proyecto del wiki. Obviamente podemos y queremos avanzar en el futuro hacia una situación donde más hablantes tengan un acceso más inmediato y opciones para aportar al wikipedia en Nawat y aprovecharla más directamente, pero creo que estamos en condiciones de emprender los primeros pasos, si conseguimos que se involucre un número suficiente de personas inicialmente para ponerlo en marcha. Nadie niega que trabajar en torno a una lengua en las condiciones en las que se encuentra el Nawat plantea un reto especial y exige estrategias adaptadas a las circunstancias, pero eso es cierto de todo lo que hacemos en una lengua así (no sólo para crear un wiki), y ya tenemos asumidos este hecho y ya estamos afrontando tales retos. No es razón para tirar la toalla sino para proceder con prudencia y tratar de ser efectivos y hacer bien las cosas, que es lo que a mí me preocupa. Si te interesa el Náhuat (Pipil) y deseas trabajar sobre él, te animo vivamente a que mires nuestro trabajo en Facebook del que te hablé antes. Creo que es importante desarrollar un wiki (si es que lo hacemos) de una manera apropiada a su fase de desarrollo y recuperación y en consonancia con el mundo y las coordenadas en las que los pipiles y su cultura existen. No solamente debemos pensar en el hecho de parentesco lingüístico entre el pipil y el náhuatl (aunque lo reconocemos) sino en otros factores también. Por eso optaría por un inicio desde cero y no una "traducción" de un wiki preexistente en otro idioma, aunque sea un idioma hermano. Es un gusto saludarte y seguiremos en contacto. --

myself have not worked in Honduras, only in El Salvador, but a couple of years ago I and a colleague did a preliminary survey in preparation for what promised to be a (to the extent that present reality permits) Lenca language recovery project (proposed to us by an Indigenous organisation working in the area), but it eventually came to nothing (or so it now seems); once we got past the initial non-commital talking stage and moving towards actually getting to work (which my colleague and I were certainly eager to do), the local partners' interest apparently dried up. In ES this is sometimes referred to (by us at least) as the "llamarada de tusa" phenomenon. So I never actually got my foot in the field there, unfortunately. It sounds like you are better placed though, and it might be interesting to combine our resources if you'd like. How about us working together on a Lenca language article some time in the coming months, for starters? Alan --

impression is that musical culture has not been preserved very well in this area in general, except perhaps for the traditions of playing pipes and drums in local "fiestas" (mostly post-European in form and content, I would guess). We have a recent recording and transcription of an interview of an old man who makes the latter instruments, talking about their construction, how he learnt to make them and so on. No mention of anything like what you mention, as far as I can remember. I also met a marimba-maker in the Pipil area, but my guess is that is a more recent importation from Guatemala, where I understand marimbas are more common. But I insist that I'm not into that field so don't take my word for any of this. Cheers, Alan. PS Sorry to be slow answering, I'm under an avalanche of work at the moment. --

2388:, which has produced over 1700 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for the region but fuelled by a series of contests to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. The Africa contest scaled worldwide would naturally provide great benefits to Oceania countries, particularly Australia and attract new editors. I would like some support from existing editors here to get the Challenges off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile and potentially bring about hundreds of improvements in a few weeks through a contest! Cheers.♦ -- 1998:

flag it as needing editorial review. The other relevant fields are "speakers" (the number of native speakers in all countries), "date" (the date of the reference or census that Ethnologue uses, not the date of Ethnologue!), and sometimes "speakers2". Our convention has been to enter e.g. "1990 census" when a census is used, as other data can be much older than the publication date. Sometimes a citation elsewhere in the article depends on the e17 entry, in which case you will need to change "name=e17" to "name=e18" in the reference tag (assuming the 18th edition still supports the cited claim).

anthropologists seem to agree that the language is in fact extinct in Honduras. I spoke with two ethnographers at the Honduran Institute of Anthropology and History who were working in the Lenca region this summer, and none had found anyone who knew more than a few hundred words. Both Honduran and Salvadoran Lenca are undergoing cultural revitalization movements (do a search on "Maya-Lenca" "Najochan" on google to see one fascinating result for El Salvador) so there's definitely activity, and a desire to relearn the language.

names were also used as apellidos (family names) among the "indios principales" of the towns in the colonial era. Many of the "dialects" the spanish record in fact appear to be house/family names in the Lenca region as well. I argue the Toquegua are a multilingual named house whose "lengua materna" is probably Lenca, and I suspect we'll find something similar for the other "dialects" the spanish told us about for Honduran Lenca.

the fragments that have been recorded to build up what one can of a coherent linguistic system. It is in that context of a rather extreme salvage operation, "pepenando" (to use a Salvadoran Spanish term borrowed I believe from the Nawat verb pejpena) what bits and pieces we can find, that I suggest the possibility of considering ES Lenca as a backup source. I realise they are different, of course. Cheers, Alan --
