Zoque: Copainalá...
"Zoque is spoken in several dialects by 20,000 or more Indians of
northwestern Chiapas, Mexico.   Local dialects are divided into
the following main groups: Copainalá, spoken by 8,000 people
in the municipios of Tecpatń and Copainalá; Ostuacán and
Francisco Léon, closely related dialects spoken by 5,000 in the
municipios of Ostuacán and Magdalena, or Francisco Léon;
Ocotepec, spoken by 10,000 in the municipios of Ocotepec and
Tapalapa; and Pantepec-Rayón, two closely related dialects
spoken in the municipios of those names.   Zoque is still spoken in
smaller groups around these main dialect areas, but to a lesser
degree, e.g., around Tapixulapa and Puzcatan, in Tabasco.
Zoque is grouped linguistically with Mixe and Popoluca."
