The Mixtec /ˈmiːʃtɛk/ languages belong to Otomanguean language family of Mexico and are closely related to the Trique and Cuicatec languages. They are spoken by over half a million people. Identifying how many Mixtec languages there are in this complex dialect continuum poses challenges at the level of linguistic theory. Depending on the criteria for distinguishing dialects from languages there may be as many as fifty Mixtec languages.
