Hi, I'm Maarit, and welcome to Xcanatun, my favorite city in Mexico.

Our village's main language is Spanish. The Yucatec Mayan language is still spoken by the elders, but my friends and I know just a few words.

After school I practice pok-a-tok. Pok-a-tok is an ancient Maya game in which you hit a basketball size rubber ball with your hips, thighs, and chest. You can't use your hands. The goal is to hit the ball into a stone hoop. The Maya practiced every day because they could face horrible consequences if they lost.

Based on the text, what is a less common Maya practice in Maarit's community?

Clothing
Spanish

Yucatec
