New Mexican Spanish
New Mexican Spanish (Spanish: español neomexicano), or New Mexican and Southern Colorado Spanish refers to certain traditional varieties of Spanish spoken in the United States in New Mexico and southern Colorado, which are different from the Spanish spoken by recent immigrants. It includes a traditional indigenous dialect spoken generally by Oasisamerican peoples and Hispano—descendants, who live mostly in New Mexico, southern Colorado, in Pueblos, Jicarilla, Mescalero, the Navajo Nation, and in other parts of the former regions of Nuevo Mexico and the New Mexico Territory.
