Abstract:

Alto Perené speakers reside in the foothills of the eastern Andes and the
western fringe of the Amazonian jungle of Peru. The highly endangered language
is spoken by about three hundred people. There are a few hundred more people
with varying degrees of proficiency in the language. This trilingual
dictionary is a result of eight years of the author’s fieldwork in the Native
community located in Chanchamayo Province of Peru. 

The dictionary is produced in close collaboration with fifty native speakers.
It collects and preserves the most critical culture-specific information about
the community’s traditional ways of living. The introductory prefaces in
Spanish and English present a brief linguistic profile of the language. The
dictionary provides glossaries in English and Spanish and links to online
materials. It contains over 900 entries which are amply illustrated by natural
language data from field recordings, and by numerous drawings and photographs.
The readership includes Alto Perené learners, bilingual teachers, linguists
and anthropologists.
