How do you pronounce it?-— Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.133.240.203 ( talk) 16:51, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
The fact that the state has experienced a recent abundance of violence related to the drug trade should be mentioned. See http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=6113878 and hear a report in Real Audio from National Public Radio that aired 09/21/06 on this subject.-— Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.86.238.175 ( talk) 02:35, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
Sorry i cam't speak englis very well, but Michoacan isn't Nahuatl, it's Purepecha a languaje speaking in this State
Hello, The Michoacán's name comes from the purépecha,Michmacuan which it means " Near The Water ", is not náhuatl, besides that them in the etymological composition not aparace the word "atl", that in náhuatl means water. I am of Michoacán because of it I affirm this
Actually they are two the versions. The word Michoacán can come from the voice náhualt "michihuacán", that wants to say, " fishermen's place ". Other authors there makes derive the same word of the voice purépecha "Michmacuán", which it means, " place near to the water ". The meaning of the word assumes to the fact of which, the first pre-Hispanic populations, were constructed around the lakes of Pátzcuaro, Zacapu, Cuitzeo and Zirahuen.
For the geographical and historical characteristics of the State I´partial to the version Purépecha, nevertheless the version Náhuatl is the ofucial
Regards from Huixquilucan Méx.
What is said in this article about P'urhépecha/Tarascan disagrees with the statements in the Wikipedia article on the P'urhépecha language, and should be corrected accordingly. According to the language article, which cites scientific sources (as opposed to this one, which cites none), P'urhépecha is either a language isolate (the majority view among specialists) or a member of the Chibchan language family (a proposal by Joseph Greenberg that enjoys little support). By either account, it is not a member of any of the recognised Mesoamerican language families. In contrast, the Michoacán article states that P'urhépecha is 1) a "hybrid language" (???), 2) a "hybrid Mesoamerican language" (???), 3) "the product of a wide-ranging process of linguistic borrowing and fusion" (???), 4) according to "some prestigious [but unnamed!] researchers... distantly related to Quecha" (???!!!), and 5) that "for this reason... the P'urhépecha may have arrived in Mexico from Peru and may be distantly related to the Incas" (?????!!!!!). This misinformation should be scrapped completely and rewritten in line with the more rigorous content of the language article. -- A R King ( talk) 07:34, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
I think the section is becoming too large and I don't think it's adding anything to the article; in any case, there is the list of municipalities of Michoacán article. I think the section should be removed. -- Odiseo79 ( talk) 01:31, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
I just read a Police One article speaking of 42 gunmen and 1 police officer killed in a battle near Michoacan. I typed into wikipedia to learn how much of the area is controlled by cartels and the history of occupation by them. Not a single reference is contained within the Wikipedia topic. I do appreciate finding out that this is the Winter home of Monarch butterflies, but not the infomation that I was seeking. 165.189.255.34 ( talk) 12:06, 8 June 2015 (UTC)6/08/15 Jim
