Sierra Popoluca also called Soteapanec or Soteapan Zoque, or Highland Popoluca is a Mixe-Zoquean language of the Zoquean branch spoken by around 30,000 indigenous Popoluca people in and around the town of Soteapan in the Sierra de Los Tuxtlas in southern Veracruz, Mexico. The speakers themselves call their language Nuntajɨyi which means "True or Straight Speech", and themselves Nuntajɨypappɨc.
