Definição

  • Qanjobal (also Kanjobal) is a Mayan language spoken primarily in Guatemala and part of Mexico. According to 1998 estimates compiled by SIL International in Ethnologue, there were approximately 77,700 native speakers, primarily in the Huehuetenango Department of Guatemala. Qanjobal is a member of the Qanjobalan branch of the Mayan language family. The Mayan language family includes 31 languages, two of which are now extinct. The Qanjobalan branch includes not only Qanjobal itself but also Chuj, Akatek, and Jakaltek, also spoken in Guatemala. The Qanjobalan languages are noted for being among the most conservative of the Mayan language family, although they do include some interesting innovations.
