Comparative Study of Andean Languages

Fieldwork Locations

 

 

The first table below gives a summary presentation of the Andean language varieties for which data are already collected to be covered in this study.

    The first column indicates whether the source for my data was my own fieldwork (fwk, in 19 cases), and/or from dictionaries (dct, in three cases).

    The fieldwork locations are arranged geographically north to south. 

    Varieties in black are from the Quechua language family, those in brown are from the Aymara family (also known as Jaqi or Aru), while Chipaya (a separate family) is in green.
