Best Answer

The fall of Tenochtitlan was one of several turnings points for the Spaniards being able to maintain forces in Central America. Because the Spaniards were able to conquer Tenochtitlan (and later, other South American cities/countries), an entire culture slowly started to fade. The Spanish language and Spanish customs soon quickly became the prevailing language/culture in Central America. Not only that, but Christianity was introduced to the Natives.

Today, while many Indian Languages do exist, as the youth try to assimilate into the Spanish culture, they are slowly leaving that life behind them. In a few more generations, it is highly likely that many of these languages will be extinct and near-forgotten.
