Download or read book Q eqchi Maya Thematic Dictionary written by Jeffrey B. Frazier and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-06-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book fills a gap not yet well covered by other published Q'eqchi' language materials. As a dictionary it combines features of both traditional bilingual dictionaries and vocabularies used for language learning. It is a thematic dictionary, since the arrangement of entries in the Q'eqchi'-to-English section is done by theme, rather than alphabetically. This approach offers advantages to students as a vocabulary builder, to writers as a thesaurus, and to linguists as an insight into the structure and usage of the language. There are three principal sections: Section I contains a simple introduction to Q'eqchi' orthography and pronunciation for English speakers that are new to Q'eqchi'.Section II is a thematic list of Q'eqchi' words followed by their parts of speech and English equivalent(s). As in many vocabularies, many of the entries are illustrated. Themes vary from basic nominal categories like fruits or tools to linguistic categories such as verb-ending type or notional categories such as time and quantity.Section III is an alphabetical listing of the English words corresponding to all of the 8,500+ Q'eqchi' entries in Section II (as in a traditional dictionary).

Book excerpt: This dictionary builds upon the Q'eqchi' Mayan Thematic Dictionary previously published from this database. In this version the arrangement of entries in the Q'eqchi'-to-English section is presented alphabetically rather than by theme. This approach offers advantages to native Q'eqchi' speakers learning English in that one can more easily locate the Q'eqchi' word in question and learn its English equivalent(s). There are three principal sections in this dictionary: Section I contains a simple introduction to Q'eqchi' orthography and pronunciation for English speakers that are new to Q'eqchi', as well as a comprehensive overview of Q'eqchi' grammar that outlines the principal parts of speech and how they are formed into proper inflections, conjugations, and sentences. This grammar is new to this version of the dictionary and as far as I can tell it is the only Q'eqchi' grammar written in English available in print. Section II is an alphabetical list of Q'eqchi' words followed by their parts of speech and English equivalent(s). Many of the entries are illustrated. This section also contains a number of new and updated entries not found in the first edition of the Q'eqchi' Mayan Thematic Dictionary. Section III is a reversal index that contains an alphabetical listing of the English words corresponding to all of the Q'eqchi' entries in Section II. The dictionary also includes helpful notes on grammatical usage and evidence for borrowed words where possible. In addition, this version includes entries for many Q'eqchi' place names and their etymologies and English meanings. While not yet complete, these entries are not found in the first edition of the Q'eqchi' Mayan Thematic Dictionary."

Book excerpt: Feldman spent two years transcribing the five separate vocabularies of a corpus called the Viana dictionary of the Poqom Maya from photocopies and copy flows. The core of the dictionary that translates the Maya into Spanish was written by Dominican friar Francisco Viana (1528-1608), who arrived in Guatemala in 1556. Feldman has re-alphabetized the text, removed duplications and fragments that are too incomplete to have any meaning, and added material from other sources when useful.

Download or read book A Dictionary of Ch orti Mayan Spanish English written by Kerry M. Hull and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of extant languages, Ch'orti' Mayan is the closest to ancient the Maya hieroglyphic script, but it is a language that is decreasing in usage. In southern Guatemala where it is spoken, many children no longer learn it, as Spanish dominates most experiences. From linguistic and anthropological data gathered over many years, Kerry Hull has created the largest and most complete Ch'orti' Mayan dictionary to date. With nearly 9,000 entries, this trilingual dictionary of Ch'orti', Spanish, and English preserves ancient words and concepts that were vital to this culture in the past. Each entry contains examples of Ch'orti' sentences along with their translations. Each term is defined grammatically and linked to a grammatical index. Variations due to age and region are noted. Additionally, extensive cultural and linguistic annotations accompany many entries, providing detailed looks into Ch'orti' daily life, mythology, flora and fauna, healing, ritual, and food. Hull worked closely with native speakers, including traditional ritual specialists, and presents that work here in a way that is easily accessible to scholars and laypersons alike.

Download or read book Itzaj Maya Grammar written by Charles Andrew Hofling and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Itzaj Maya language is member of a the Yukatekan Maya language family spoken in the lands of Guatemala, Mexico, and Belize, a family that includes Maya, Mopan, and Lakantun. Many Classic Maya hieroglyphic texts were written in an earlier form of these languages, as were many important colonial documents. In addition to being a valuable record of an ancient language, Andrew Hofling's Itzaj Maya Grammar contributes greatly to the study of these older documents. This exemplary grammar completes a basic documentation that began with Itzaj Maya Texts and Itzaj Maya-Spanish-English Dictionary. Its coverage of the linguistic structures of Itzaj includes the phonological, morphophonological, and syntactic structures. Each morphological and grammatical construction is carefully explained, with additional examples of each construction included. Itzaj Maya Grammar is a landmark contribution to the study of discourse in Maya languages. When used with Hofling's previous texts, it provides a thoroughly dynamic documentation of the language, useful to all interested in the study of Yukatekan languages or linguistics.
