Q: Are the words in this glossary used in other Central American countries, such as Mexico?
A: It is likely that some of these words are used in, for example, southern Mexico or western Belize due to their proximity to Guatemala and the migration of people between countries. However, we currently only have experience with these words being used in Guatemala and want to advertise only what we can deliver. That being said, if you know of these words being used in other Latin American nations, please send a note our way! We would love to hear about your findings of similarities or differences.
Q: I am going to Guatemala on a short-term team and don’t have time to learn all these words. Which are most useful?
A: The underlined words are most commonly used and so are recommended for short-term teams.
