Quechua - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1601 words) |
 | Quechua has often been grouped with Aymara as a larger Quechumaran linguistic stock, largely because about a third of its vocabulary is shared with Aymara. |
| Quechua I or Waywash is spoken in Peru's central highlands. |
| None of the plosives or fricatives are voiced; voicing is not phonemic in the Quechua native vocabulary. |
| Ayacucho Quechua - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (359 words) |
| Ayacucho is one dialect of the Quechua language, spoken in the Ayacucho region of Peru, as well as by immigrants from Ayacucho in Lima. |
| Ayacucho Quechua lacks the characteristic fricativization of stops at the end of a syllable; compare Cusco nuqanchis with Ayacucho ñuqanchik. |
| Ayacucho Quechua has borrowed hundreds of words from Spanish, and some speakers (even monolinguals) approximate the Spanish pronunciation; for them at least, /f v b d g e o/ are phonemes. |
