Abstract
⺠First account use of frames of reference (FoR) in Ayutla Mixe, a Mixe-Zoque language spoken in Southern Mexico is presented. ⺠Referential communication task was conducted with five pairs of native speakers to locate a figure with respect to a ground. ⺠The difference between projective and non-projective relations is discussed. ⺠The difference between landmark-based and direct FoRs, particularly when the anchor is a speech act participant is debated.
