Zoque Languages
The Zoque () languages form a primary branch of the Mixe–Zoquean language family indigenous to southern Mexico by the Zoque people. Central (Copainalá) Zoque-language programming is carried by the CDI's radio station XECOPA, broadcasting from Copainalá, Chiapas. There are over 100,000 speakers of Zoque languages. 74,000 people reported their language to be "Zoque" in a 2020 census, and an additional 36,000 reported their language to be Sierra Popoluca. Most of the remaining 8,400 "Popoluca" speakers are presumably also Zoque.Lenguas indígenas y hablantes de 3 años y más, 2020
