Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Cuál es la pronunciación del nombre de México?
- Perhaps it would help to realize that the 'X' as employed by the first friars who attempted to commit mesoamerican languages to script via Latin characters is very much in the spirit of a variable, much as it is employed as an "unknown" in mathematics. As linguists, these friars faced the problem that there were sounds produced in the native languages that did not exist in Castillian Spanish. The guttural "j" is an example of this (similar to "ch" in German, as in "Heinrich"), and another is the "X" mentioned above, the case of the "sh" sound, as in "shoe." (The natives had similar problems with Spanish sounds that did not exist in their own languages, e.g. there is no "r" in Mexica).
