How did the Spaniards and the Indians communicate with each other during the Spanish Conquest of South America?
Appearently they were able to communicate well enough to divide and conquer the native tribes, and persuade hundreds of thousands of natives to aid them. Surely this requires some high level of mutual understanding.
How did they learn to understand each other so well in so little time? ??
It's not really that difficult to learn a language if you have contact with people speaking it
Rape women
Speak in Hindi and in Spanish to the offsprings
Profit
Wrong Indian bro
>implying
Spaniards didn't talk to them, they just raped and abused them, horrible people they were!!!
I will post quotes of Spaniards themselves about their early days in the Americas
Sure but they had hundred of thousands of indian allies
"He sent fifty men on horseback who proceeded to annihilate the entire population of an area greater than the county of Roussillon, sparing not a single man or woman, old man, or child, and this they did on the flimsiest of pretexts, accusing their victims of not coming quickly enough when they were summoned, or of not having brought enough cargas of maize or of not surrendering sufficient of their kinsmen as slaves either to the governor himself or to one or another of his henchmen. These men were driven by the Devil and not a single Native managed to escape, what with the land being as flat as it was and the Spaniards having horses."
Pg 37 Bartolome De las Casas
>mfw all those crimes were comitted by the eternal moorlusian but the whole country is blamed.
"During these eleven years, more than two million souls have perished and, in an area of more than a hundred leagues by a hundred leagues, only two thousand survivors are to be seen, and even this number is shrinking day by day as the survivors succumb to the rigours of a life of slavery."
Pg 56 Bartolome De las Casas
