Resumen: Este estudio exploratorio busca proponer una política lingüística para las grandes corporaciones con el fin de ayudar a revitalizar las lenguas indígenas en México. Basado en dos grupos de enfoque, primero con gerentes de recursos humanos y luego con empleados indígenas, el documento resume sus comentarios sobre lo que las empresas pueden y deben hacer para ayudar a preservar las lenguas indígenas. Además, ambos grupos examinaron una lista de prácticas lingüísticas desarrolladas por el Gobierno Vasco para promover el uso del euskera en las empresas. Al examinar las diez prácticas mencionadas con mayor frecuencia por ambos grupos, se puede ver el surgimiento de una política lingüística en la empresa privada que sería factible y útil para fomentar el uso de lenguas indígenas en la empresa.

Palabras clave: Política lingüística; empresa; muerte de lenguas.

 

Abstract: This exploratory study seeks to propose a language policy for large corporations in order help revitalize Indigenous languages in Mexico. Based on two focus groups, first with human resource managers, and then with Indigenous employees, the paper summarizes their comments on what companies can and should do to help preserve Indigenous languages. In addition, both groups examined a list of language practices developed by the Basque government to promote the use of Euskera in companies. By examining the ten practices most frequently mentioned by both groups, one can see the emergence of a language policy in the private firm that would be both feasible and helpful for fostering the use of Indigenous languages in the firm.

Keywords: Language policy; company; language death.
