Question

Hi, I'm Maarit, and welcome to Xcanatun, my favorite city in Mexico. Our village's main language is Spanish. The Yucatec Mayan language is still spoken by the elders, but my friends and I know just a few words. After school I practice pok-a-tok. Pok-a-tok is an ancient Maya game in which you hit a basketball size rubber ball with your hips, thighs, and chest. You can't use your hands. The goal is to hit the ball into a stone hoop. The Maya practiced every day because they could face horrible consequences if they lost. Based on the text , what is a less common Maya practice in Maarit's community? A) Clothing B) Spanish C) Songs D) Yucatec

Answer 1

I would say D because only the elders speak it.
