| |
| Eastern Jacaltec is one of the few languages besides the [[Malagasy language]] of [[Madagascar]] to make use of an n-[[trema (diacritic)|trema]] character in its alphabet. In both languages, the n-trema represents a [[velar nasal]] consonant {{IPAblink|ŋ}} (like "ng" in "bang").
| |
| | |
| Jakaltek-language programming is carried by the [[National Commission for the Development of Indigenous Peoples|CDI]]'s radio station [[XEVFS]], broadcasting from [[Las Margaritas, Chiapas]].
| |
| | |
| ==Grammar== | |
| The Jacaltec language has a [[verb–subject–object]] syntax. Like many [[Indigenous peoples of the Americas|Native American]] languages, Jacaltec has a lot of complex [[agglutinative]] [[morphology (linguistics)|morphology]] and uses [[Ergative–absolutive language|ergative–absolutive case alignment]]. It is divided in two dialects, Eastern and Western Jakalteko. "Eastern and Western Jakalteko understand each other's spoken languages, but not written text."<ref>Gordon, Raymond G, ed. "Jakalteko, Western." ''Ethnologue: Languages of the World''. 15th ed. Dallas, TX: SIL International, 2005. 254. Print.</ref>
| |
| | |
| Owing to Jacaltec's dissimilarity with [[Indo-European language]]s, the reasonably healthy linguistic population and the relative ease of access to Guatemala, Jacaltec has become a favorite of students of [[linguistic typology]].
