Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: Phonology and morphophonemics -- Chapter 3: Substantives -- Chapter 4: Verbs -- Chapter 5: Particles -- Chapter 6: Enclitics -- Chapter 7: Syntax -- Appendix A: Analysis of the Southern Yauyos Quenchua lexicon -- Appendix B: Further analysis of evidential modifiers
This book presents a synchronic grammar of the southern dialects of Yauyos, an extremely endangered Quechuan language spoken in the Peruvian Andes. As the language is highly synthetic, the grammar focuses principally on morphology; a longer section is dedicated to the language's unusual evidential system. The grammar's 1400 examples are drawn from a 24-hour corpus of transcribed recordings collected in the course of the documentation of the language.
