My commercial- Creamnol

Letter

Dear Editor,

I’m writing to express my concern about and advert which appeared on page 57 of your magazine last week. I think it could be confused to some people, because the magazine seems to be aimed at common people and the text is unclear to the society, you have to verify the writings and articles that your magazine publish in accordance to your audience.

I read your article but I think your writers can write for the audience that you are aiming; sometimes a text with unknown words is difficult to the comprehension of the reader. I suggest using of conventional words in order to make yourself understood.

In the other hand I want to congratulate you for the courage to start a publication of bioethics, plan and produce a magazine Bioethics for Latin America, is a great responsibility, so you have my admiration for the courage that you maintained until this magazine was published for the first time.

Yours faithfully

Itzel del Carmen

Interview Report

I asked for an interview to Isbeth.

She has attitudes that caracterizes a good person, she said that her strengths are that she is punctual, she respects people and she studies a lot; her weakness is that she is a little bit lazy, I consider that this is contradictory because she said that she studies a lot but a the same time she is "lazy". I asked her about how her friends discribe her, she thinks that they would discribe her like a crazy person, and maybe that she is a good student even when she sometimes don't go to class. In the future she wants to be a teacher for children, she works well in a team but she prefers to work by herself. Her greatest achivement is that is is studying in the faculty of languages right now. She expects to herself the carrer finished, a good job, living by herself, 

My impression about her is that she is a good student, she learns easily and I think she will be a dedicated teacher. She will be a good candidate to work at any school she wants.

Something else...

A famous woman that spread the custom of tehuana was Frida Kahlo.

Personalities like Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo painted some pictures about the Istmo and its culture.

Day of the dead

The altars in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec are performed three consecutive years after the death of a loved one, altars usually have between 10 and 15 steps and most of the time have the height of the house.

The altars are part of the current culture. This tradition came with the Spanish and merged with the custom of the Zapotecs.

We can see to women who dress regional custom of mourning.

Language

Zapotec has changed through the years, there are variations in pitch as broad in the region, but it is understandable for speakers of Isthmus. The language persists in adult pesonas, it's a shame that youth does not show interest in learning this dialect, as it is a heritage of our ancestors invalueble that identify us as Zapotec.
people continue modifying it because of the influence and the constant contact with the Spanish, currently great sound changes are noticed.

Gastronomy

In Mexico people tend to accompany every dish with tortillas, on the Istmo, the 'totopos' are the ingredient that must be present at the table. Some of the most known food are:

Gueta bi'ngui, tamales, tlayudas, cheese, mole.
