Time
Let us start from the basics:
K'iñ .... day
Uh .... month (moon)
Ha'b' .... Year

So now let us orientate around ourselves in time:
wöleyi ... today
ihk'öl ... tomorrow
cha'b'i ... in two days
huxb'i ... in three days
ak'b'ix ... yesterday / ak'b'i ta majlil k'yum ... Yesterday the boss left
ch'öbijix ... two days ago
i yuxpe'le k'iñ ... three days ago
yomty'o' huxpe' k'iñ ... three days are missing (untill...)
or
huxpe' ty'o' k'iñ yom ... three days are missing (untill...)

About rapidness

humuk hach tyalol ... I come rapidly (now I come)
ora hach tyalol ... he comes rapidly
pityañoñ tz'itya' humuk ... wait for me one moment

  1. Hello,

    what is the meaning of the word Tumbalá in Ch'ol?

    It's wonderful, that you support regional dialects with this modern method. Keep it up! :)

    Greetings
    Daniel
