Ixil (Ixhil) is a Mayan language spoken in Mexico and Guatemala.

[2] It is the primary language of the Ixil people, which mainly comprises the three towns of San Juan Cotzal, Santa María Nebaj, and San Gaspar Chajul in the Guatemalan highlands and numerous towns in the states of Campeche and Quintana Roo in southeast México.

According to historical linguistic studies Ixil emerged as a separate language sometime around the year 500AD.

Ixil language is spoken in Mexico in some municipalities of the states of Campeche and Quintana Roo.

[7] A notable feature of the language's grammar is its ambiguity in discerning reflexive from reciprocal pronouns.
