Teaching my American husband Tarasco/Purepecha!? 

Hey everyone! I see all the love you guys are sharing and I definitely see the requests for more Purepecha videos/ tutorials! I have came across some other videos here on wonderful youtube that actually teach this language in proper context! :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2DbXdAAEWfg.html

I'm Purepecha too. Omg!!! I was born in the USA, but learn to speak Purepecha first. When I started kinder, I learned English and Spanish. My mom and dad are from Ocumicho, Michoacan. My mom was a Gueresita when she was young. I dress up with our traditional outfits every December to celebrate the Virgin Mary. Also when we have big parties. Such as cuando se juntan, weddings, bautizos, alot of family gatherings.

This is so exciting! My family is from Michoacan and I really wanted to learn more about Purepecha and the language. It's trickier to find reliable sources on the history. I love this!

I wish my parents taught me purepecha 😭

My grandma and grandpa spoke tarascó and I didn’t know that it is the same as purépecha. This is so interesting. Trying to learn more from my roots. Thank you so much for this video. I would love to learn more.

amazing ,I love it great video ,I am from michoacan too.

I’m from Michoacán , a little town called Arantepacua

My family is from La Cantera!! ❤❤❤

Cool video. Saludos from Tijuana.

grandparents died recently. didn’t teach me or my parents. trying to recover what i can about my culture thank you for the video

El esposo se bien animado.

I love to see this type of content! I am so fascinated by the Purhepecha people. I wish to identify as an indigenous person myself, but I don't know if I can. My dad is from Morelia, Michoacán, but he is mestizo. We do not know our indigenous roots, it has been covered up and lost through time. My family has spoken only Spanish for generations, and I feel sad inside like there is a long tradition which has been lost. My grandmother was born in Uruapan, and her parents were both orphans. I wish to study Purhepecha to try and reconnect with this part of myself, but it is difficult to find resources.

Teach us more please.

Please teach your children this language if you have any! I wish I could’ve learned a indigenous language along with Spanish as a child.

No entiendo bien el inglés pero si el purepecha. Saludos desde la Isla Uranden de Morelos.

I'm from michoacan too

Can you do more videos of speaking that language I am from Michoacan

Thank you for sharing! Is there a word for “hello?”

I am a purepecho indigenous person

My mom is from Pomacuaran two villages over

cool! Purepecha (place of fish masters)!

I just found your channel! My home town is literally in the border of Michoacán and Guanajuato. Before my abuelito passed away, he would tell us so much that he was so proud of being Tarasco, but before we could start looking more into our family and where we are from he passed away. When he was little his family moved to our little town and he lost touch with his roots and forgot the language as he got older. His parents didn't teach him much and he wanted so badly to learn. I got so happy when I found your video, thank you for sharing. He would have love this! ☺️

I think that languages like Purépecha, Nahua, Otomí, Mixtec, Zapotec, Yucateco, Yaqui and others should be taught in Mexican schools depending on the region.

I am from Carapan Michoacán. I’m a native indigenous and I speak fluently purepecha 🇲🇽

Dang girl, you spoke our mother tongue with a Spanish lisp. TRUE MEXICAN Well done miss.

Just found out my grandma, mother of my mother, was Tarascan.

great! Na sési jásisti!

My family is from La Jacona Michoacan, La Ribera Jalisco, and San Jose Casas Caidas Jalisco. We just traced our history back, and my grandma's father spoke this language! I'm in the process of learning it, so thank you!!

Crazy, My family is from Ocumicho as well ! I Can relate to you, don’t know how to speak it so well but I can understand it. You definitely know more than me tho🤣😅

My great grandma spoke this language my grandpa spoke it

The purest and most ancient stage of the language that's been recorded is in the 2 documents known as "Arte de la Lengua de Michoacan(1558)" and "Vocabulario en Lengva de Michoacan(1559)"

This is interesting because I'm also a first-language speaker of a regional, minority language (which is usually glossed over too, sadly). My family is Chinese, but my first language wasn't Mandarin. It was actually Shanghainese, which is dialect of Wu Chinese (Wu Chinese is a distinct language, but related to Mandarin). I've also gotten to the point where I can't speak it fluently anymore. But, I can still understand and translate sentences and pick out the sounds. I just can't speak it well to communicate with locals in Shanghai. It's always cool seeing people who speak indigenous languages. I have a huge interest in Mesoamerican indigenous languages. And living in LA has exposed me to a few Zapotec and Nahuatl speakers, but I've yet to meet Purepecha speakers. It's also an interesting language since it predates the Aztecs and it's unrelated to any other language in Mexico.

Love, love, love it! All of my family is from Michoacán and wish I knew P’urhépecha ❤️ Our family probably lost it hundreds of years ago 😞 Que siga adelante!

AHHHHH IM so happy to finally see a fellow purhepecha RU-vidr 😭❣️ I have to Stan and follow lol

No pos gracias for giving mi y mis ninos lessons...yo tambien soy de Michoacán but mi jefito didn't teach me (too busy I guess...) but little by little me and mis kids will get it ...gracias again and porfas more lessons

Im from Michoacan qnd never knew this until like 3months ago 😭😭😭

I was surprised when I went to Michoacan about 20 years ago, that I as a "gringo" spoke "better" Spanish than the people in the pueblo we went to. All of the people spoke Purepecha and I was suprised they didn''t speak Spanish (200km from Mexico City). Curiously, the people in the pueblo knew California, Oregon and Washington, but they didn''t know Mexico City.

Oh my goodness! I’m so glad I found your youtube Chanel! My parents never taught me Purepucha because Dad is from Cheranaztico, and mom is from Quinceo, so they could never agree to how to “say something right” I’m so inspired to learn this beautiful dialect!

My family is from Michoacán and my last name is also elias!

N'ats churikuarexakï, purépecha de la comunidad de comachuen saludos desde HENDERSON Norte Carolina

Mom and Dad are a whole mood

i am purepecha from both sides and i was born in patzcuaro michoacan and raised there until i was 1. unfortunatly after my parents immigrated us to the u.s my mother assimilated and never taught me how to speak it and my bio dad bailed and i lost touch with that side along with it so no one ever taught me it because of stuff. still upset to this day my mom never taught me and i only know spanish because of it because english to her was difficult. i really wish i knew some purepecha girl names so i can name my daughter with my native tongue i am now trying to learn to keep my heritage alive.

Wow so cool! I hope you make more puré videos!!!!

¡Hermosa! Eres muy afortunada de hablar purépecha. Yo también soy de Michoacán 💜

My parents and I are from a neighboring town to Morelia , Michoacan,called acambaro Guanajuato . I have read this town was also purepecha at some point (maybe still is ?) before being colonized by other tribes and the Spaniards, I asked my dad about this and he said yes acambaro is purepecha word . Anyways just trying to learn more about who we are , thanks for sharing this fun video!

Hello from JACONA Michoacán.. I’ve been to your town for los diablillos de ocumicho”!! And brought them Back to Los Ángeles California where I live.

Its such a blessing to know your actual heritage and indigenous culture before the conquestadors came.. imagine mexica if they never came to conquer and control😒😒😔 “mexico” now would be at peace. Gabachos took advantage and made it what it is now as far as the drug trade due to the poor economy. Be proud and always brave to be Indigenous mana 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

My parents are from Chilchota Michoacan. So happy I found this page! Keep up the good work mija!😎👊🏼

My grandma Purepecha and the only phrase that I know is “chuscuta con tataccini” = rice, beans, and tortillas. I also remember her singing me la flor de canela en P’urhépecha🥺 I cant wait to go to Michoacán this December

Ellos son descendientes de Esau y nosotros descendientes de Jacob!

My grandfather recently pasted and we found a bunch of info about his father who was purepecha... I am very very white but my great grandfather is from Michoacán and was over half purepecha please do more videos...I really want to learn more about my heritage

I know like certain words, the only sentenceI know is I'm hungry (karíma Shaká). I wanna know more because I think it's a beautiful language.

This is awesome! Thank you! My grandfather spoke Purepecha and was from Michoacan. I found one book on the language.

Yo quiero aprender a escribirlo

Yo soy p’urepecha de corazón y me gustan mucho la música de los grupos y bandas de Ocumicho como es mi mas grupo favorito andapiti conquistador y misterio musical y los hijos de San Pedro Banda hermanos Vicente y Banda San Pedro siempre serán los mejores saluditos desde Tennessee y sigue adelante 😘👏👏👏
