Aymara is the name of a South-Americanpeople and of their language. The Aymara are native to the Andes region of Bolivia and Peru. The Aymara were established in the region for centuries before becoming a subject people of the Inca, and later of the Spanish in the 16th century.
Aymara is spoken in Bolivia, Peru, and Chile. Most are in Lake Titicaca region, and are concentrated south of the lake. There are 1.2 million Bolivian speakers, 300 thousand Peruvian speakers, and 50 thousand Chilean speakers of the language. Some believe that the Aymara language descends from the language spoken in Tiwanaku. This can't be proven, but we do know that the language was spoken by the rich Aymara Kindoms. These were conquered by Huayna Capac between 1493 CE and 1525 CE. He took their stone masons to Cusco to train them in the Inca style and later help in building some of the architecture the Inca are known for.

El idioma aimara, también aymara (jaya mara aru o jaqi aru) es una lengua de la familia aru hablada en Bolivia y Perú.
Aimara como tal no fue una denominación de raza (aunque hoy se discrepe este aspecto con algunos conceptos modernistas) sino que se refería a un idioma común adoptado por las diferentes culturas y pueblos andinos como una "lengua de integración y comunicación".
El carácter estrictamente algorítmico de la sintaxis aimara, es decir, el hecho que siguiendo una secuencia pre establecida de pasos lógicos siempre permite generar cualquier oración independientemente de su contenido, hace que este lenguaje sea muy apto para automatizar cualquier traducción de otro idioma a éste.
