A practice and application of lingusitc knowledge in the revitalization of the Yucatec Maya

在这项研究中，我写了一本尤卡坦玛雅语的语法指南，供教学使用。在墨西哥土著语言的推动下，尤卡坦玛雅语的教学比以往任何时候都更加重要。然而，在传统语法中，西班牙语一直被用作语法解释的模型。由于这个原因，尤卡坦玛雅人的许多语法特征仍然无法解释。一般来说，大多数尤卡坦玛雅教师除了西班牙语之外没有任何其他语法知识，他们也不容易获得关于玛雅语言的现代语言学研究，因为他们不熟悉专业术语。另一方面，很少有语言学家参与教材的编写，使他们的语言学研究在教学活动中闲置。在墨西哥语言学研究的进展和语言教学实践之间架起一座桥梁是必要的。

In this study, I have written a grammatical guide of the Yucatec Maya for its use in teaching and learning it. Teaching the Yucatec Maya has gained more importance than never under the promotion of the indigenous languaes in Mexico. However, in traditional grammars, Spanish has been used as model in grammatical explanations. For that reason there have remained unexplained many grammatical characteristics of the Yucatec Maya. In general, most of the teachers of the Yucatec Maya do not have any other grammatical knowlede than those of Spanish, and they neither have easy access to the modern linguistical studies on the Mayan langueas for its professional terminology unfamiliar to them. On the other hand, very few the linguists have taken participation in preparing didactical materials, leaving their lingustical studies unused in teaching activities. It has been necesary to make a bridge between the advance of linguistic studies and the practice of teaching the languages in Mexico.
