The Linguist

CONGRATULATIONS ON BEING SELECTED THE LINGUIST OF YOUR GROUP! Before you start, answer these questions: What is a linguist? What does the profession of linguist involve?

You, the linguist, are in charge of finding as much information as possible about the language used by the Aztecs, the Spanish, and modern day Mexicans.

Here are some questions you should consider:

1. What are pictographs? ideograms? hieroglyphics?

2. What are the names of the languages spoken by the Aztecs/Spaniards/Mexicans?

3. Is the ancient Aztec language still being used in Mexico (hint: look at city/town names)?

4. What is the language used by most modern day Mexicans?
