A brief descriptive grammar of Pijal Media Lengua and an acoustic vowel space analysis of Pijal Media Lengua and Imbabura QuichuaStewart, Jesse 10 September 2011 (has links)
This thesis presents an acoustic vowel space analysis of F1 and F2 frequencies from 10 speakers of Pijal Media Lengua (PML) and 10 speakers of Imbabura Quichua (IQ). This thesis also provides a brief grammatical discription of PML with insights into contrasts and similarities between Spanish, Quichua and other documented varieties of Media Lengua (ML). ML is typically described as a mixed language with a Quichua morphosyntactic structure where almost all content words are replaced by their Spanish-derived counterparts through the process of relexification. I use mixed effects models to test for statistical significance between PML Spanish-derived vowels and Quichua-derived vowels. The results provide suggestive data for (1) co-existing vowel systems in moderate contact situations and (2) moderate evidence for co-exsiting vowel systems in extreme contact situations. Results also show that PML may be manipulating as many as eight vowels and IQ as many as six.

Rural weavers in Southern Bolivia : a development project case studyEversole, Robyn. January 1995 (has links)
While most people would agree that economic development is an important goal, and understanding of exactly what "economic development" implies, and how to achieve it, are considerably more elusive. Specifically, this paper addresses the concern about whether very small-scale "grassroots-style" development projects for producers--especially petty artisans--really have the potential to make a positive impact on an ailing economy. A case study of a textile weavers' project in rural northern Chuquisaca, Bolivia, among the Jalq's (Quechua-speaking) ethnic group, is presented in detail. The local-level organizations, known as "workshops", which administer this project are analysed along with economic data from households, in order to determine both the advantages of such a project for rural women weavers, and the project's limitations. The implications of a form of organization in which local-level organizations share administrative duties with a larger support organization--in this case, the Sucre-based Antropologos del Surandino (ASUR)--are also discussed. The gains and potential gains made by weavers and their households as a result of this project are not overwhelming, yet they are valuable steps toward increased empowerment and an expansion of economic and social options for the Jalq'a.

In Ixtli In Yollotl/A (Wise) Face A (Wise) Heart: Reclaiming Embodied Rhetorical Traditions of Anahuac and TawantinsuyuRíos, Gabriela Raquel 2012 August 1900 (has links)
Theories of writing are one of the fundamental ways by which Indigenous peoples have been labeled as "uncivilized." In these discussions, writing becomes synonymous with history, literacy, and often times Truth. As such, scholars studying Nahua codices and Andean khipu sometimes juxtapose the two because together they present a break in an evolutionary theory of writing systems that links alphabetic script with the construction of "complex civilizations." Contemporary scholars tend to offer an "inclusive" approach to the study of Latin American histories through challenging exclusive definitions of writing. These definitions are always informed and limited by language-the extent to which these "writing" systems represent language. However, recentering discussions of writing and language on what Gregory Cajete has called Native Science shifts the discussion to matters of ecology in a way that intersects with current scholarship in bicocultural diversity studies regarding the link between language, culture, and biodiversity. Because of the ways in which language configures rhetoric and writing studies, a shift in understanding how language emerges bears great impact on how we understand not only the histories tied to codices and khipu but also how they function as epistemologies. In my dissertation, I build a model of relationality using Indigenous and decolonial methodologies alongside the Nahua concept of in ixtli in yollotl (a wise face/a wise heart) and embodied rhetorics. The model I construct here offers a path for understanding "traditional" knowledges as fluid and mobile. I specifically look at the relationship between land, bodies, language, and Native Science functions on the reciprocal relationship between those three components in making meaning.
I then extend this argument to show how the complex web of relations that we might call biocultural diversity produces and is produced by "things" like images from codices and khipu that in turn help to (re)produce biocultural diversity. Thing theory, in emerging material culture studies, argues for the agency of cultural artifacts in the making of various realities. These "things" always-already bear a relationship to bodies and "nature." Thing theory, then, can challenge us to see artifacts like khipu and Nahua images as language artifacts and help us connect Nahua images and khipu to language outside of a text-based model. Ultimately, I argue that Native Science asks us to see language as a practice connected to biocultural diversity.

Uso del quechua y rendimiento académico de los niños y niñas del III ciclo de la I.E. Nº 38678/Mx –P DE Huaracascca - Saurama - Vilcas Huamán - Ayacucho 2014Zamora Alvarado, Juan January 2015 (has links)
El documento digital no refiere asesor / Publicación a texto completo no autorizada por el autor / Trata sobre el uso adecuado de la lengua quechua y su relación con el rendimiento académico en los alumnos de 1° y 2° de primaria de la institución educativa Nº 38678/Mx –P. El propósito de esta investigación es diagnosticar la relación del uso adecuado del quechua en el rendimiento académico de los estudiantes y aplicar el uso del quechua incorporando la interculturalidad, el bilingüismo y metodología activa en el proceso de aprendizaje de los niños y niñas del III ciclo. Se trata de un estudio de tipo descriptivo correlacional y de temporalidad transversal, para lo cual se realizaron entrevistas y se aplicó una ficha de observación. El objeto de estudio está constituido por los niños(as) de la I.E. Nº 38678/Mx –P. la muestra constó de 11 niños de 1° y 2° de primaria y 1 profesor. El trabajo de investigación llegó a las siguientes conclusiones: el uso adecuado de la lengua quechua tiene relación positiva con el rendimiento académico de los niños/as de 1° y 2° de primaria respecto a este punto los profesores realizan juegos didácticos, clases que se relacionan a su entorno y lecturas tanto en quechua como en castellano. Se recomienda desarrollar talleres de capacitación donde se involucren tantos padres de familia, docentes y estudiantes respecto a la gramática elemental del quechua con la finalidad de mejorar la aplicación del idioma materno y el fortalecimiento de los valores culturales. / Tesis
