She hopes the Mazahua language doesn’t die. She says she would like her children to continue to speak the language.
She has two kids. One of them understands but does not speak. She would like to teach the one year old girl to speak [Mazahua] so that they can preserve the tradition and the origin where they come from since their grandparents.
