Isthmus Mixe

Isthmus Mixe, called Lowland Mixe in Wichmann (1995), is a Mixe language spoken in Mexico. It is spoken in the villages of Coatlán San José el Paraíso, Mazatlán, Guichicovi, and Camotlán, Oaxaca.

Isthmus Mixe uses SOV word order. It contains prepositions and postpositions, genitives and demonstratives before noun heads, and relative clauses after the head. Isthmus Mixe is usually categorized as agglutinating.

Dieterman believes every consonant may be modified by the addition of secondary palatalization.
