<DIV>From Serafin M Coronel-Molina (<A href="mailto:scoronel@Princeton.EDU">scoronel@Princeton.EDU</A>) June 6, 2005:<BR><BR>Below is a link to an interesting multilingual resource for Quechua and<BR>Aymara -- an online searchable dictionary for these languages -- that is<BR>available on the website of the "Programa Huascarán" in the Ministry of<BR>Education of Peru. It is best viewed with Internet Explorer.<BR><BR>VOCABULARIO POLIGLOTA INCAICO [1905] (1998 EN INTERNET)<BR>(Spanish, 4 dialects of Quechua, and Aymara)<BR><BR>Introduction:<BR><BR> <A href="http://www.huascaran.edu.pe/vocabulario/vocabulario.htm">http://www.huascaran.edu.pe/vocabulario/vocabulario.htm</A><BR><BR>Searchable Contents of the Vocabulario:<BR><BR> <A href="http://www.huascaran.edu.pe/CIApps/Curricular/Diccionario/index.htm">http://www.huascaran.edu.pe/CIApps/Curricular/Diccionario/index.htm</A><BR><BR><BR>Readers of the SSILA Bulletin may also be interested in knowing
that<BR>Microsoft has developed a Quechua language version of Windows XP.<BR>The following news story appeared in the Sunday Times of South Africa<BR>(of all places) on Friday, November 12, 2004:<BR><BR> Microsoft will translate its blockbuster "Windows" and "Office" software<BR> into Quechua, the language of the indigenous Inca, for Andean nations<BR> from Argentina to Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, where it<BR> is spoken, the company said on Thursday.<BR><BR> Microsoft opted to bring today's high-tech software to speakers of<BR> Quechua as it is the most widely spoken indigenous language in Latin<BR> America, by almost 10 million people, said Marushka Chocobar,<BR> Microsoft's educational liaison in Lima.<BR><BR> The Quechua-language version of Windows XP and Office 2003, being<BR> developed in Peru, will be available in 2005.<BR><BR> This marks the first time Microsoft has translated its software into
an<BR> indigenous language of Latin America, and is aimed at boosting literacy<BR> programs largely among the poor.<BR><BR>[After a little digging, we came up with the following additional<BR>information: Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) now ships with<BR>25 new ELKs ("Enabling Language Kits"). Among these are ELKs for three<BR>"locales" of Quechua (Bolivia, Ecuador, Peru). If you run Windows with<BR>a Quechua ELK selected, your system will automatically be provided<BR>with a Quechua keyboard, alphabetization, font, and other "localized"<BR>features (local currency, time/date format, etc.) For further details<BR>see: <A href="http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B883262&x=13&y=11">http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B883262&x=13&y=11</A><BR>-Ed.]<BR></DIV><BR><BR><DIV>
