Description:		Jose Ruben Mendoza told his life. He explains the different villages where he lived when he was young. He was born in Culmi but foreigners arrived and killed people to take their lands. So he went out and when he was 19, he arrived in El Carbon for working and marrying.
		The general aim of the MDP0276 project is to document and describe three varieties of Pesh in eight villages, the most northern Chibchan language, and the only one spoken in Honduras. Pesh is classified as an isolate in the Chibchan family; it is the sole language that does not belong to Core Chibchan. Pesh is endangered: it has roughly 500 speakers, of whom 80% are more than 50 years old. Pesh is little described. The project has filled a gap, since no documentation or complete description has been carried out in the past. Various genres have been documented, in particular such endangered speech practices as prayers and ceremonial speech, and narratives related to traditional cooking and medicine. More than 30 hours have been recorded.
		He was born in Culmi and arrives in Carbon when he was 19, and lives in this village then. He also lived when he was young in la Mosquitia. He speaks well Pesh but his wife and his children don’t speak Pesh. He speaks Spanish in the village.
		He was born in Culmi. He is living in Moradel. Spanish is his first language and he learnt Pesh at home with his parents.He began speaking Pesh 10 years ago. He learnt Miskito in Las Marias. He speaks Spanish and Pesh with his spouse and children. He is teacher and a leader in his village
