		Mexican Spanish retains a number of words that are considered archaisms in Spain.

	PROVERBS IN MEXICAN AMERICAN TRADITION

		Speakers of New Mexican Spanish are mainly descendants of Spanish colonists who arrived in New Mexico in the 17th and 18th centuries.

		Castilian Spanish does not use the combination ‘tl’ and Castilian ‘x’ is never pronounced as in the purely Mexican words ‘México’ and ‘Oaxaca’, where it sounds just like Spanish ‘j’, a sound that doesn’t occur in English, except in Scottish words like ‘loch’.
		These quirks came into being when the Spanish conquerors of México were trying to reduce Nahuatl, the language of the Aztecs, into the adapted Roman alphabet used in Spanish.
		The letter ‘x’ was used by the Spanish conquerors to represent the sound that English represents rather unaptly as ‘sh’.
