Since then the Yucatec Maya have used an alphabetic system which may have been invented by the Spanish priest Luis de Villalpando and his companions. The orthography, once settled, did not change except for some letters for [p'], [t'], [s], etc. (Table 1). In the eighteenth century the Yucatec grammarian Pedro Beltran tried to change the writing system systematically, under the influence of the reform of the Spanish orthography. In the nineteenth century Carrillo y Ancona introduced a new orthography, but with the exception of dz for [¢], its system was not accepted by those who followed. Meanwhile, Yucatec Maya indians left many documents in which they used traditional orthography but spelled words in many different ways (see, p. 103). Nowadays the Yucatec Maya use four major and different systems—traditional, international, Cordemex, and Cartilla-Bible. However, Yucatec Maya indians have almost no opportunity to write their language and show no concern about the systems.}, pages = {93--110}, title = {ユカテクマヤ語の正書法の歴史 : マヤ人の文字使用との関連において}, volume = {10}, year = {1985}, yomi = {ヤスギ, ヨシホ} }
