Ecuadorian Kichwa
[日本語]
Health Questionnaire
Cañar Kichwa (ISO-code: QXR) belongs to the Quechua II sub-family of Quechua languages. It is part of the continuum of Quichua varieties spoken in Ecuador and Colombia and some parts of Peru. Some characteristics are canonical SOV word order, although word order is flexible and arguments may be null depending on information structure, nominative-accusative case alignment, rich suffixal, derivational and inflectional morphology, grammatical encoding of evidentiality, lack of definite determiners. Similar to other Kichwa varieties spoken in Ecuador, and unlike the Quechua varieties, Cañari Kichwa does not distinguish /k/ and /q/, /e/ and /o/ do not exist but their allophonic forms [i] and [u] respectively. Cañari Kichwa owes its characteristics to the extended linguistic contact with Cañari language, which later displaced Cañari during the Inca expansion, and its influence can be attested in toponymys, phytonymys, zoonomys, phytonymy and many anthroponyms.
