I don't want to depress you, but it's unlikely you'll ever have more than the most passing familiarity with Mesoamerican languages unless you dedicate years to their study.

They aren't western. They aren't even eastern. They are just different.

Most (as in about 80%) Paraguayans speak Guarani.

Consider this is a tonal language with a bunch of weird sounds, and super complex grammar. Ehhhhh, i don't think so.

IIRC they used them as radio operators in ww2 because literally nobody could learn the language

The linguist who wrote the classic textbook on Navajo grammar spent about 10 years on the reservation before even beginning to write his book.

Also it's insteresting that Navajo is one of the most "living" Native American languages with more than 150.000 speakers, and the Navajos actually came from Canada.
