Mixteco translation

Mixteco Translation Matched to Your Community's Variant.

Native Mixteco (Mixtec) speakers for health, farmworker, school and legal communication, matched by home town and delivered in written or recorded form.

Quick Answer

Why Does the Mixteco Variant Matter?

Mixteco is a family of variants, and speakers from different towns in Oaxaca, Guerrero and Puebla may not understand each other. Ask where your audience comes from, then use a native speaker of that variant. For most community messages, recorded audio works better than written text.

At a glance

Mixteco at a Glance

The facts our project managers confirm before a Mixteco project starts.

Topic	Detail
Script	Latin alphabet. Spelling conventions vary by region, and many speakers do not read Mixteco.
Where it is used	Oaxaca, Guerrero and Puebla in Mexico, and Mixteco communities in California, Oregon, Washington and New York.
Variants	Dozens of variants, many not mutually understandable. The home town of the speaker is the best guide.
Typical content	Health information, farmworker safety, school communication, legal statements and audio messages.
Tone	Mixteco is a tonal language, so recorded audio by a native speaker carries meaning that text can miss.

Common mistakes

Where Mixteco Projects Go Wrong

Most problems in Mixteco projects come from a few predictable gaps. This is what we check on every file.

One generic Mixteco is used for everyone. A message recorded in the wrong variant may not be understood, so we match by home town.
Spanish is used instead. Many Mixteco speakers understand Spanish only partly, especially elders and recent arrivals.
Only text is delivered. Most Mixteco speakers prefer spoken messages, and we record them with native voice talent.
Health and safety terms are left unclear. Native reviewers check that each instruction is explained in everyday words.
