The Spaniards communicated with the Karankawas primarily through gestures and basic sign language, as well as with the help of interpreters who could speak both Spanish and the Karankawa language. Initial encounters often involved trade and gift exchanges, which facilitated some understanding between the two groups. Additionally, the Spaniards may have learned key words and phrases to establish rapport. Despite these efforts, significant language barriers remained, complicating deeper interactions.
