John 3:16 SAN JUAN

’Cos Teat Dios xeyay andiüm meáwan nipilan wüx aaga iüt cam, áag tüüch miün anopǘyan Micual Nej mawün wüx asoet jangantanej leaw apmayar nej andeac. Atquiaj ngondom ndrom mamb tiül aaga xeyay ngo majneaj; pero apmapac meáwan nüt niüng ajlüy Teat Dios. 

Huave (also spelled Wabe) is a language isolate spoken by the indigenous Huave people on the Pacific coast of the Mexican state of Oaxaca. The language is spoken in four villages on the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, in the southeast of the state, by around 18,000 people (see table below). The Huave people of San Mateo del Mar, who call themselves Ikoots, meaning "us," refer to their language as ombeayiiüts, meaning "our language". In San Francisco del Mar, the corresponding terms are Kunajts ("us") and umbeyajts ("our language"). The term "Huave" is thought to come from the Zapotec languages, meaning "people who rot in the humidity", according to the 17th-century Spanish historian Burgoa. However, Martínez Gracida (1888) claims the meaning of the term means 'many people' in Isthmus Zapotec, interpreting hua as "abundant" and be as a shortened form of binni ("people"). The etymology of the term requires further investigation. Neither of the above etymologies is judged plausible by Isthmus Zapotec speakers.
