Mopan language
Mopan (or Mopan Maya) is a language that belongs to the Yucatecan branch of the Mayan languages. It is spoken by the Mopan people who live in the Petén Department of Guatemala and in the Maya Mountains region of Belize. There are between three and four thousand Mopan speakers in Guatemala and six to eight thousand in Belize.〔Hofling, ''Mopan Maya–Spanish–English Dictionary'', 1.〕
The other Yucatecan languages are Yucatec, Lacandon, and Itza'. Mopan began to diverge from the other Yucatecan languages at least one thousand years ago.〔

Towns where Mopan is prominently spoken include San Luis, Poptún, Melchor de Mencos, and Dolores in Guatemala,〔Kaufman, ''Proyecto de Alfabetos y Ortografías'', 65.〕 as well as San Antonio in the Toledo District of Belize.〔Mwakikagile, ''Belize and Its People'', 114.〕
