Mayo is an Uto-Aztecan language. It is spoken by about 40,000 people, the Mexican Mayo or Yoreme Indians, who live in the South of the Mexican state of Sonora and in the North of the neighboring state of Sinaloa. Under the Law of Linguistic Rights, it is recognized as a national language along with 62 other indigenous languages and Spanish which all have the same validity in Mexico. The Mayo language is partially intelligible with the Yaqui language, and the division between the two language is more of a political one founded in the historic division between Yaqui and Mayo peoples than in linguistic relations. Programming in both Mayo and Yaqui is carried by the CDI's radio station XEETCH, broadcasting from Etchojoa, Sonora.
