TO
HIS EXCELLENCY
GENERAL DON MANUEL DE LA GTTARDA,
MINISTER OF WAR AND MARINE
IN THE
REPUBLIC OF PERU,
Who has ever taken a sincere interest in the welfare of that
ancient city of the Yncas, over which he once so
worthily presided as Prefect,

hospitality received from him in Cuzco,

INTRODUCTORY.
The following contributions towards a grammar
and dictionary of the Quichua language have been
gradually collected during a course of years in
which my attention has been more or less turned
to the land of the Yncas. Two visits to Peru, in
1853 and I860, have given me good opportuni¬
ties of working to some purpose in this field of
research.
The Quichua language had its cradle in the
districts round the ancient city of Cuzco; and,
as is well known, it was the policy of the Yncas
of Peru to introduce it into every country which
they conquered. Thus its use was gradually
extended over the vast region from Quito to the
confines of Chile and Tucuman, which formed
the Empire of the Yncas. Indeed, the conquered
tribes nearly all spoke dialects of Quichua. The
people of Quito used a language which differed
scarcely at all from that of the Yncas. In the

northern and central parts of the sierra of Peru,
the Chinchay-suyu was spoken, also a mere dia¬
lect of Quichua. The Ytinea was the language
of the Peruvian coast, the Lama of the tribes
near the great river Huallaga, and the Ccauqui
of the people of Yauyos in central Peru. Round
the shores of lake Titicaca, the Ay mar a language
is spoken, from the village of Paucar-colla, twelve
miles north of Puno, to the southern part of the
modern republic of Bolivia. Aymara is certainly-
very distinct from Quichua in sound, and many
of the words are different, but a large proportion
are the same, and the grammatical structure of
the two lanefuao-es is identical. Further south,

the Calcliaqui, spoken in Tucuman, is a dialect
of Aymara. With the exception of the Lama,
which is a branch of the great Tiipi family of lan¬
guages, all these Peruvian tongues come from
one common stock, and Quichua may be looked
upon as the elder sister and representative of the
group. During the period of Ynca ascendancy,
Quichua superseded all the other dialects as the
language of the governing race ; it was the lan¬
guage of a people far advanced in civilization ;
it was assiduously cultivated by learned men for

several centuries; and it may, therefore, be
selected as the most perfect of the extensive
American group of languages. Hence its im¬
portance to the philologist.
He who travels in the land of the Yncas, and
sees the rapid diminution of the aboriginal popu¬
lation, and the constantly increasing corruption
of their ancient tongue through the substitution
of Spanish for Quichua words, the introduction
of Spanish idioms, and the loss of all purity of
style, cannot but feel that the language, once so
flourishing, which was used by a polished court,
and a well established government, which was
spoken throughout the extent of a vast empire,
is now fast disappearing. Ere long, perhaps, it
will fade away entirely from the memory of living
generations.
With it will disappear the richest form of the
great American group of languages, no small loss
to the student of philology. With it will be lost
all the traditions which yet remain of the old
glory of the Yncas, all the poems, elegies, and
love songs which stamp the character of a once
happy people.
The South American Spaniards in Peru have
4
INTRODUCTORY.
paid some attention to the literature and history
of the aborigines. The late Don Mariano RAvero
carefully studied the antiquities of Peru, and
published a valuable work on the subject (Anti-
guedcides Per u a n as). The curas, also, of some of
the parishes in the interior, especially Dr. Dasa
of Pucara, Dr. Rosas of Chinchero, and the late
Dr. Justiniani of Laris, a descendant of the
Yncas, were excellent Quichua scholars, but their
knowledge dies with them.
But it is to the exertions of the active and
zealous ecclesiastics of the seventeenth and eigh¬
teenth centuries that the advances in the know¬
ledge of Quichua are chiefly due. They studied
the " Lingua General del Peru" most assiduously,
and left the following grammars and dictionaries
as the fruits of their labours.
1. A grammar of the language of the Indians
of Peru, by Friar Domingo de San Tomas, of the
order of St. Domingo, a resident in that country,
printed in Valladolid, 1560; with a vocabulary of
the language of Peru, called Quichua, as an
appendix. Very scarce. This friar was the first
doctor who graduated in the university of Lima.
2. A grammar and vocab.ulary of the language

3. A grammar and vocabulary of the Quichua
language, by Diego de Torres Rubio. Seville,
1603. A second edition printed in Lima, 1619.
A third edition, with a vocabulary of the Chin-
chaysuyu dialect and many additions, edited by
Juan de Figueredo. Lima, 1700. (There is a
copy of this edition in the library of the Royal
Geographical Society.) A fourth edition, with
Figueredo's additions, and further additions.
Lima, 1754. (A copy of this edition is in my
possession.)
4. Vocabulary of the Quichua language, by
Friar Juan Martinez. Lima, 1604. Only one
copy in Europe, and very few in Peru. This is
said to be the most copious dictionary of the
Quichua language ever printed in Spanish times.
5. Vocabulary of the general language of all
Peru, called Quichua or of the Inca, by Diego
Gonzalez Holguin, 1608. (There is a copy in
the public library at Lima.) Grammar, by the
same author. Lima, 1614. A second edition of
the grammar was published at Lima in 1842. (A
copy of this edition is in my possession.)

Of modern writers, we owe most to that emi¬
nent German traveller, Dr. von Tschudi, whose
Kechua Sjrrache contains a grammar and dic¬
tionary of the Quichua language, and some speci¬
mens of composition.
The language was cultivated to some extent in
Spanish viceregal times, by others besides gram¬
marians. There was a professor's chair for the
Quichua language in the university at Lima,
whose first occupier was one Don Juan de Bal¬
boa, a Peruvian by birth. Senor Palomino, in
1646, published a translation into Quichua of one
of the works of Cardinal Bellarmine: and, in
INTRODUCTORY.
7
1648, Dr. Avendano printed several sermons in
Quichua. Dr. Lunarejo,* a rector of the univer¬
sity of Cuzco, and other scholars, have printed
Quichua songs from time to time ; and Dr. Val-
dez, cura of Sicuani, wrote a drama called 01-
lantay, into which several ancient songs are
incorporated.
The drama of Ollantay is the best known work
in the Quichua language, and the text of it is
printed at the end of Dr. von Tscliudr's KecJiua
Spraehe. For an account of the plot, and some
translations, I would refer the inquirer to chapter
vi of my work Cuzco and Lima; and for some
account of the author, Dr. Yaldez, to my Travels
in Peru and India, page 139 (note), and page
166 (note).
During my visits to Peru in 1853 and 1860, I
endeavoured to obtain a complete vocabulary of
the rich and expressive language of the Yncas.
After having collected as many words as possible
from the mouths of Indians, and of curas learned
in the language, I collated my lists with the an-

cient dictionary of the Jesuit Hoi gum in the
public library at Lima, with the vocabularies in
the editions of Torres Rubio, and with the dic¬
tionary in Yon Tschudi's Kechua Sprache, adding
such words as were not already contained in my
lists. I have also added such Quichua words as
are given in Grarcilasso de la Vega, Acosta, and
Yelasco, and in the botanical works of Ruiz and
Pa von, and of Haenke. The short grammar
which precedes my dictionary is founded on those
of Holguin and Torres Rubio.
Quichua literature, in the time of the Yncas,
had been carefully cultivated for centuries, not
only by the Haravecs or bards in their love
ditties and songs of triumph, but by the Amanitas,
whose duty it was to preserve the traditions of
the people, and prepare the rituals for the wor¬
ship of the Deity. The loss of nearly every spe¬
cimen of this ancient literature was caused by
the Spanish conquest which swept away all the
landmarks of the civilization which it destroyed,
the neglect of the conquerors, and the final deso¬
lation which followed on the failure of Tupac
Amaru's rising in 1780.
A few fragments have, however, escaped the

general wreck, and floated down to our time. Of
these, the most important, because indisputably
the most authentic, are the two meagre speci¬
mens preserved by the old Inca Garcilasso. The
first of these is a verse of a little love ditty which
he remembered as a boy :
Caylla llapi To the song
Pununqui, You will sleep,
Chaupi-tuta In dead of night
Hamusac : I will come :
and which he tells us was sung with a lute. The
second is longer, and appears to have been a
fragment of some grand old hymn, like those of
the Rig Ye da, in which the powers of the air
were personified. The missionary, Bias Yalera,
obtained it from an ancient Qidpu record; and
G-arcilasso recollected having heard many other
hymns of a like nature from his Ynca relations, in
his childhood, which he afterwards forgot. What
would not one now give for those precious relics
of Ynca civilization, which the half-caste lad care¬
lessly allowed to slip from his memory !
In the fragment that has been preserved, the
Deity is supposed to have placed a princess in
the sky, with a vase full of water, with which

earth; and her brother strikes the vase, which
occasions thunder and lightning.

This poetical treatment of the grand pheno-

Rig Veda, and especially of the war between
Indra and Yritra, the cloud demon.

11
Garcilasso distinctly states that liis informant,
Bias Valera, obtained the above fragment from
quipus or knots of various colours, which served
for the preservation of ancient annals and tradi¬
tions. After a very careful study of all the mate¬
rial within my reach, bearing upon the question
of qurpu records among the ancient Peruvians, I
have come to the conclusion that they were not
only used to preserve revenue accounts, but also
to hand down poetical and historical composi¬
tions ; in short, that they contained a rich and
varied literature. Hundreds of these quipus have
been found in the ancient burial places, being
knotted cords of bright coloured llama wool, but
most of them fell to pieces on being exposed to
the outer air. Others, however, have been pre¬
served ; and the secret of reading them is still
known to a very few Indians of rank. This part
of the subject alone offers a promising and in¬
tensely interesting, though difficult field of re¬
search to the future explorer of Peruvian anti¬
quities.
Next in interest to the poetical fragments
quoted above, comes the Quichua dramatic litera¬
ture. The Ynca historian tells us that the Amau-
12
INTRODUCTORY.
tas or learned men composed tragedies and come¬
dies which were performed before the Ynca and
his nobles on festive occasions. The actors, he
says, were not low born, bnt the sons of no¬
blemen; and the subjects were always military
triumphs, and mighty deeds of former Yncas.
The comedies treated of farming, and other
homely topics; but they never contained any
buffoonery nor immoral allusions. None of these
ancient plays are extant, but two Quichua dra¬
mas have come into my hands which undoubt¬
edly contain several ancient songs, and some
other passages of the Ynca period, though they
are in a Spanish dress, and were mainly written by
Spanish curas. One is entitled Ollantay, by Dr.
Yaldez of Sicuani, which I have already men¬
tioned; and the other, Usca-Paucar, by an un¬
known author. They are not without literary
merit; some of the scenes are very fine, and as
tolerably pure specimens of Quichua, they are
well worthy of careful study.
Besides the fragments preserved by Grarcilasso,
and the above mentioned dramas, Quichua litera¬
ture consists of theological works and catechisms
translated from the Spanish, a few ancient poems,
INTRODUCTORY.
13
and numerous modern love songs. Of the an¬
cient poems, I have as many as twenty in my
possession, which were given to me by a de¬
scendant of the Yncas. The modern love songs
and despedidas are innumerable, that which I be¬
lieve is considered the purest and most elegant
is entitled La Desjpedida de Arriasa, but there
are many others of almost equal merit. A love
song attributed to Dr. Lunarejo, a copy of which
was given me by Don Juan Francisco Oviedo, of
Puno, is also much appreciated by Indian lovers.
The phrases in the original Quichua are cer¬
tainly very neat and expressive, and the sentiment,
though exaggerated, is pleasing and imaginative.
Quichua was a highly cultivated language ; and
the student who may turn his attention to the
history of the American races will find in this
rich and copious tongue many ancient fragments
of prose and poetry which will convince him of
the civilization of the Peruvians. He will find
love songs which are quite equal to the odes of
Hafiz, and hymns to the elements not inferior to
the mantras of the Pig Yeda. Quichua literature
is a field of research which is as yet scarcely
touched. Careful investigation might bring many
14
INTRODUCTORY.
curious manuscripts to light, which are now
mouldering in tlie chests of aged Curas or of In¬
dians in the secluded villages of the Cordilleras ;
and it is quite possible that important discoveries
might yet be made, bearing on the history and
civilization of this interesting race. But there is
no time to be lost. Every year the living lan¬
guage becomes more corrupt, and loses more and
more of its purity. Every year the chances in¬
crease of the total loss of records which still
remain in manuscript.
That, during the first two centuries after the
conquest of Peru, the Indian Guracas in different
parts of the country caused many of the historical
poems and other records preserved in the qiiipus,
or in the memory, to be committed to writing,
there exists the clearest evidence. They were
carefully preserved and handed down from father
to son, and although many must have been de¬
stroyed during the revolt of Tupac Amaru, some
must still remain, and would reward a diligent
search.
In the civilization of ancient Peru the American
race had attained its highest development. I am
now convinced that that civilization was indi-

15
genous, and it was making very slow but sensible
progress when it was overwhelmed by the Spanish
conquest. Portions of the wreck have drifted
down to our time, and await the searching scru¬
tiny of some future antiquary. All that has yet
been done is incomplete and unsatisfactory.
Men's minds are now more than ever turned to
the study of the early history and origin of their
species. Before long I anticipate that, with other
branches of the great human family, the American
race will attract a larger share of attention from
the learned men of the present age, and of this
race the Peruvians are the representatives, as the
most advanced in civilization. But meanwhile
their once pure and beautiful language is becom¬
ing more and more corrupt.
Considerations such as these led me to de¬
sire that my collections of Quichua words should
be printed, and thus become useful to others
who may follow me in this field of research.
Ever since I was a midshipman on the Pacific
station, years ago, the land of the Yncas has had
for me an indescribable charm. I greedily de¬
voured the pages of Prescott while anchored
under the shadow of the mighty Cordillera; and

the story of the conquest, and of the gentle
children of the Sun, made an impression on me
then, which time will never efface. Since those
days, I have traversed the glorious Andes in va¬
rious directions, and would desire no pleasanter
occupation than again to be able to explore their
secluded recesses. But this cannot be; and I
am only able to hope that my present humble
contribution towards the study of the American
races, in the form of a grammar and dictionary
of Quichua, the language of the Yncas of Peru,
may enable others to make a start at the point
where I have been obliged to leave off.

QUICHUA GRAMMAR.
PRONUNCIATION.
The Spanish method of spelling has been adopted,
because all printed and manuscript Quichua writ¬
ings are in this form, so that any other would be
useless and confusing.
A is always broad, as in the English far.
G as c in cat.
Gc is a double sound peculiar to Quichua: the
first, a guttural far back in the throat; and the
second on the roof of the mouth. Holguin makes
another still harsher sound with Kh, but I have
not separated the words thus spelt by Holguin,
from those beginning with Gc.
Gli is pronounced as in English. Some words
beginning with this sound are pronounced rather
sharper than others (Teh, Tchs, Tclih), but it
would not be possible to acquire the use of these

slight differences, except by intercourse with the
natives of Peru.
H scarcely sounded. The Spaniards often use
6r instead. Hit pronounced as w.
LI as III in million.
M as in English.
N as in English.
N as the ne in new.
(J as in English. It is often substituted by the
Spaniards for U.
P as in English ; often corrupted into R by
the Spaniards, who write hamha for pampa, and
tambo for tampu. Ph, each letter sounded sepa¬
rately, and Pp is a double sound.
Qu as the English K.
R as in English. Often corrupted by the
Spaniards into L, as Lima for Rlmac, Lunahnana
for Runalmanac, Lucma for Rucma, &c.
S as in English.
T as in English. Th, each letter sounded sepa¬
rately, and Tt is a double sound.
U as the English W when followed by a vowel,
and like oo in fool when followed by a consonant.
It is often corrupted into V by the Spaniards.
Y as in English, or as the English I.

It will be observed that the following conso¬

NOUNS.
In Quichua the noun is declined by the addi¬
tion of terminations to the root, some of which
have no independent meaning in themselves,
while others are prepositions. The ordinary plural
is formed by the addition of the particle cuna,
which also has no independent meaning.

22
QUICHUA GRAMMAR.
PLURALS.
There are several forms of the plural number
in Quichua.
Cuna is the ordinary form for nouns and par¬
ticiples. But naui cnna means the eyes of
several people, not those of one. A pair of
eyes, ears, feet, or hands, would be formed
by pura (both), purapnin, or purapmami. "My
eyes," purap nauiy. My two feet, purapnin
chaquiy ; but not chaquiy pura. Yscaynin rincri
is my ears, but yscay rincrin would be two
ears belonging to different persons. Pura and
Purantin are also used when the noun refers
to an action confined to itself, as Aucapuran-
tin, " the soldiers amongst themselves." When
the number is given, it is not necessary to use
cuna also: Ghunca punchau, " ten days," not
Chunca punchau-cuna, although the use of cuna
is admissible.
Ghac, Chaquen, is a comparative plural, as
Anac-chac," things harder;" Llacllac-chac, " more
timid people."
Chicachac is a plural solely referring to size
(Cliica meaning "as," " as large as"). Thus,
QUICHUA GRAMMAR.
23
Huasi ch icachac taucasca yamta, "a heap of fire¬
wood as large as a house."
Ntin is a termination for forming plurals when
two or more things or persons are spoken of
collectively, as Aylluntin, those of one family;
Huasintin, a household; Cosantin, husband and
wife; Ttahuantin-suyii, the four regions (the
name given to the Empire of the Yncas).
Another form of plural is the repetition of the
noun itself, which denotes quantity, as Iiana-
rima, a crowd; Hacha hacha, a forest.
GENDER AND RELATIONSHIPS.
There are no terminations denoting gender in
Quichua. Difference in gender is expressed by
distinct words, as :
Ccari, man
Huarmi, woman
Urcu, male
China, female
Machu, old man
Pay a, old woman
But Quichua is richer than any European lan-
Huayna, young man
Sip as, young woman
Macta, boy
Tasqui, girl

guag*e in words denoting relationship. There
are distinct words for the same relation when
used by a man or a woman; thus a brother's
brother is Huauque, and a sister's brother Tura,
and there are also differences for an uncle or aunt
on the father's or mother's side,, and even for a
father or mother when speaking of their children.
This minute accuracy in speaking of relations
may^ perhaps, be taken as an indication of ad¬
vanced civilization amongst the ancient Peru¬
vians.

Adjectives are always placed before their sub¬
stantives, and are indeclinable, as : Sumac huar-
mi, a beautiful woman; Sinclri runap, of a strong
man. Adjectives are also formed by genitives,
as runap, of a man, lience manly. Runap may
also be " that which belongs or appertains to a
man," and it is then declinable, as :
Runap Runa-cunap
R i mapp a Runa-cunappa
R1171 app ac Runa- ci tnaj ip a c
Run apt a Runa-cun ap t a
Other forms, with the same meaning, are
Runallap and Runapnin.
Another compound substantive derived from
the genitive, is formed in " chaynin" as :
Apup-chaynin, that which belongs to a chief
Apup-chaypi, in a place belonging to a chief
Apup-chayman, to a place belonging to a chief
&c., &c.

QUICHUA GRAMMAR.
DEGREES OP COMPARISON.
The most usual forms of comparison are:
Asuan (more) and Anclia (most), placed before
tlie adjective, as:
Huaccha Asuan huaccha Anclia huaccha
(poor) (poorer) (poorest)
With tlie addition of a possessive particle to the
comparative, as Asuan Jaiaccliayqui, the meaning
becomes "he who is poorer than you." The
possessive particles are used for comparison in
this way: Sinchift, " stronger than heSin-
chinHi!/, " stronger than I."
Nequen (the same) is also used for forming
comparisons, as : Yachacninequey, " he who knows
more than I." The preposition manta is also
used, as: uoeamanta amauta, " wiser than I;"
and occasionally the genitive, as: uocap sumac,
" more beautiful than I."
The most common superlative form is the pre¬
fix Anclia' (most). Another is hinantin in the
genitive, as : Hinantinpa shield, " strongest of
all." Also Llapa (all) in the genitive plural, as :
Llapantinpa yacha, " the wisest of all." Gay

huarma Map a huarma-cunamanta anclia amau-
tan, " this boy is the wisest of all the boys."
Checamanta is another form of superlative, as :
Checamanta nucnu, "the sweetest." The word
is formed of Glieea (true) and the preposition
manta. Sullul, which also means true, is an¬
other superlative form, with manta, as : Sidlul-
manta milla, " most filthy."
PARTICLES WHICH MODIFY THE
MEANING OF NOUNS.
In order to give an idea of the great abundance
of modes of expression in Quichua, which is
caused by innumerable processes of agglutina¬
tion, it is necessary to give some of the many
particles which are added to nouns, in order to
convey various meanings. It is this power which
causes the extraordinary richness and variety of
expression in the language.
Aiiay, or Munay, or Munaylla, are added to
convey an idea of excellence or superiority, as:
Munallay nucnu taqui, " what wonderfully sweet
music."

QUICHUA GRAMMAR.
Cay (the infinitive of the verb cani) is used to
signify abstract existence or being; or, when
added to an adjective, it converts it into the cor¬
responding substantive. For example, Runacuy
is manhood; llampucay, kindness; yuraccay,
whiteness.
Ccisca or Ganea (derived from the verb cani)
serve the same purpose, but denoting past and
future time. Runacasca, humanity now; and
Alli-cascan, past kindness.
Gay or Camay signifies a person's condition or
fate, as huaccha cayny (my state of poverty).
Gama, when added to a noun, gives a meaning
of inclusiveness, as sinchi cama, all strong with¬
out excepting one; yachac cama, all learned;
macharcan cama, they were all drunk.
Cam an, added to nouns and pronouns, means
the task that has to be done, work, or occupa¬
tion, as Nocap camay, my task; Camp a camay-
qui, your task. It also means fitness, as Apupac
caman, fit to be chief.
Camayoc is attached to offices and employ¬
ments, as Siray-camayoc, a tailor; Llacta-ca-
mayoc, a village officer; Pucara-camayoc, a cas¬
tellan.

one who dies hard.
Chan or Ghawpi, added to verbs or nouns,
means half-done, as Chaupi cimauta, half-learned ;
chaupi conic, tepid; chaupi punuc, half-asleep;
chau-concasca, half-forgotten.
CJiac or CMcachac is used for comparing one
thing with another. Nora chac, the same size as

size of a cock. Buna chac yachac cusillu, a
monkey as intelligent as a man. In this idiom,
the thing compared is also placed first.
Ulna, as : Nirac, as : riti Idna pirca, a wall as
white as snow; atoc nirac runa, a man as cunning
as a fox. Placed before a noun, hina means
custom or habit, as hina llullu, an habitual liar;
hina llallac, constitutionally a coward.
Huatan, huacta, tulip an, and tulip a, mean dis¬
simulation, and are used with the preposition
pi; thus liuatanpi ccari, a woman feigning to be
a man; tullpanpi huarmi, a man pretending to
be a woman.

as yayanuae, fatherless.
Yupa, Yupay, or Yupasca, imply reputation,
as Ccapac yupa, he who is reputed to be rich;
yacJiac yupa, he who is considered wise. Nisca
has the same meaning.
LI a is a termination expressing tenderness or
love, as Churillay, my dear son; TJrpillay, my

Mad, added to an active participle, means a
companion, as puricmasi, a fellow-traveller;
yachacmasi, a schoolfellow.

For us
There are two forms of plural, both for pro¬
nouns and verbs of the first person, called inclu¬
sive and exclusive. The former is used, for
instance, when those who speak and those who
are spoken to are all referred to. When a man
is speaking to a mixed company of men and
women, but intends to speak only of the men, he
would use the exclusive plural, and say nocaycv
ccari-cuna, "We the men" : or a priest speaking
of his order to other people, would say nocaycu
umu-cuna, " We the priests". The plural par¬
ticle cana may be added to either of the plurals,
but this is not generally done, as Tiocancliic-cuna,
or nocaycu-cunct.

Quiqui is self, and is used together with the
possessive particles, as Quiquy, I myself; Qui-
quyqui, you yourself; Quiquin, himself; Gayqui-
ipiiii, the same. Pocpun is also self.
Git ic is a form of plural used to express angry
feeling or reprehension. Carnchic runa cuna, you

The most frequent form of the possessive pro¬
nouns is as particles attached to the end of words,
and unable to stand by themselves.

TRANSITIONS.
When the action passes from one person to
another, as I love thee, the expression forms one
word, and is conjugated. This union between
pronouns and the verb has been called by Spanish
grammarians a Transition, and there are four
different classes of transitions in Quichua, namely:
The first person to the second, expressed by yqui

PARTICLES WHICH MODIFY THE
MEANING- OF VERBS.
The meaning of verbs is modified in many
ways by the insertion of particles. Some of these
are as follows.
Oajm conveys the meaning of a return to that
which had been once done before; as yachacopwni,
I begin to learn what I had once before learnt;
yuyacajrani, I recollect what I had formerly known
but afterwards forgotten.
Chani serves to convert some nouns into verbs ;
as huasi, a house; huasichani, I build a house;
jpampa, a plain; pampachani, I level.
Chacu, added to a verb, means completeness;
as ccahuani, I view; ccahuachacuni, I examine
closely; maccini, I strike; macachacuni, I give a
blow in every part of the body.
Ghana implies decadence, a fall from better to
worse; as huaccha, poor; huacchachanani, I fall
from wealth to poverty.
Chca signifies actual present action; as yuyani,
I think; yuyachcani, I am thinking at this
moment.
Chi means the act of making another do a

The couplative conjunctions are pas, Imam,

fore; hina, so; hinam, hinamcana, so that;
cayri, or, either.
ADDITIONAL REMARKS.
The syntax, or construction of sentences, is
very simple. The concord of adjectives and sub¬
stantives must be understood, as the former class
of nouns is indeclinable. The accusative is placed
first in a sentence; then the verb; and, lastly,
the nominative. When two nouns follow each
other, one depending on the other, the dependent
noun is placed first and in the genitive case, as
huasip puncu, the door of the house. Adverbs
are placed next to the verbs or nouns to which
60
QUICHUA GRAMMAR.
they refer. To express the sentence " I am your
father", the pronoun is in the genitive, as campa
yayciyquin cani. To say " It is better for me,"
the pronoun is in the dative, as nocajoac asuan
allim cay. " It will be very painful to me",
nocapac llaqui cuyniycanman. Ablative, dative,
and indeed all oblique cases, are placed before
the nominative.
It will have been seen that the most remarka¬
ble feature of the Qaichua language is the power
of constructing words by means of affixes or
particles joined to the root, and thus providing
for the formation of innumerable words, and even
whole phrases. Du Ponceau called this mode
of composition polisynthesis; and, as most of
the American languages possess this faculty,
he named them polisynthetic languages. Dr.
Max Miiller, however, considers this peculiarity
to be nothing more than agglutination, as distin¬
guished from the inflexion of the Aryan and
Semitic languages. He, therefore, groups the
American with the other languages which he
calls agglutinative (a name given by William von
Humboldt) in Asia and Africa, not because there
is the remotest indication of a common origin,
QUICHUA GRAMMAR.
61
but from the absence of any organic differences
of grammatical structure.
No European language can describe an action
with anything like the precision and accuracy,
combined with brevity, of which Quichua is capa¬
ble; and this wonderfully abundant vocabulary
produces great variety in composition. I have
considered it unnecessary to give every modifica¬
tion of meaning of which a root is capable, in the
dictionary, because it would have swelled it to
undue proportions, while the foregoing rules
supply the necessary information upon this point.
The following Quichua words are now familiar
to all Englishmen, and, indeed, are incorporated
into our language : pampa, condor, puma, llama,
alpaca, vicuna, guano, quina (quinine), coca,
ynca, and char qui (hence jerked beef).

NOTE
Ox the Language of the Indians of Peru.
(At the beginning of the Cummentarios Heales of
Inca Garcilasso cle la Vega.)
a.d. 1G09.
For the better understanding of what, with the
blessing of God, we purpose to write in this history,
as we shall have to use many words in the general
language of the Indians of Peru, it will be well to
give some account of it. The accent is almost
always on the penultimate syllable, sometimes 011 the
ante-penultimate, but seldom or never on the last, I
have also to remark that in this general language of
Cuzco (of which I am speaking, and not of the dia¬
lects of every province, which are innumerable), the
following letters are wanting—B, D, F, (J, J, L
single, but they have the double LI. Nor have they
the letter X, so that they want six letters of the
Spanish a b c, and seven counting the single L. The
Spaniards, however, introduce these letters, thus
corrupting and injuring the language. To avoid this
corruption, it is lawful for me, as an Indian, to write
as one, and to use only the letters which the Indians
use in pronouncing their words ; and those who read
must not take this innovation ill, for that I should go
contrary to a bad custom, and write these words with
purity and precision, ought rather to give pleasure.
I should also mention that there is no plural in this
language, although there are particles which signify
the plural number. This language has many other
things very different from Spanish, Italian, or Latin ;
but it is certainly a pity that so expressive a tongue
should be lost or corrupted.

REMARKS
ON THE
QUICHUA LANGUAGE,
In the IIis tor ia Antigua del Pern, by Don Sebastian
Lorente.
A.D. 18G0.
Quichua is a language as admirable for force of
expression and richness in words, as for regularity in
its forms, and sweetness in sound. The terminations
cause a most energetic conciseness, expressing com¬
plex ideas and whole conceptions with one noun or
verb, which in other languages would require a mul¬
titude of words. The idea of plurality is denoted in
many ways, each appropriate to the particular cir¬
cumstance ; sometimes with expressive terminations,
at others by a combination of words. The dilferent
relationships are expressed in different words accord¬
ing to the person who speaks. The first person
plural distinguishes clearly whether we exclude or
include those who are addressed. A single expres¬
sion marks whether the action of the verb relates to
the second or third person. Certain particles added
to nouns show at once to whom they belong. Other
terminal particles express interrogation, doubt, or
condition. Some have pretended that, as a language
of a simple people without scientific culture, Quichua
would be ill adapted to express metaphysical ideas
and even many moral conceptions, but the facility
with which translations of the Christian doctrine, of
some classical authors, of sermons, and of composi¬
tions of all kinds, have been made, demonstrate the
contrary. In Quichua, the composition of sentences
is simple and regular; there is only one declension,
NOTES.
195
and the cases are formed by the addition of preposi¬
tions. One conjugation, complete in its voices, moods,
and tenses, serves for all the verbs, and is formed by
agglutinating the terminations to the root. The
syntax is very easy, the deed always preceding the
doer. The predominance of vowels makes the lan¬
guage exceedingly sweet. It wants the letters double
R, single L, 13, V, D, F, G, J, X, but there are sounds
expressed in our writings by CC, CK, PP, QQ, TT,
CHH, and other imperfect symbols, whence much
confusion has arisen.
FKOM
The Anti'juedades Peraanas of Don Mariano
E. de Rivero.
The Quichua language has a complete declension
formed by means of certain particles placed after the
noun. It has primitive personal pronouns, and also
possessive pronouns quite distinct from the personal,
and these are inseparable from the noun, and are al¬
ways placed after it. The Quichua has a system of
numbers so complete that any arithmetical quantity can
bo expressed by them. It has a very perfect form of
conjugation, and the moods and tenses are more com¬
plete than in many of the most cultivated languages
of the ancient continent.

POSTSCRIPT.
Note to page 0. To the list of Quicliua grammars, I must add one
mentioned by Barcia-Pinelo. " Juan de Vega. Arte e Rudimentos de
Gramatica Quichua. Impreso en Lima." Juan de Vega was the name
of the physician who effected the first recorded cure by ;the use of
Chinchona bark, which he administered to the Countess of Chinchon,
the wife of the Viceroy of Peru. It is probable that the physician and
the author of the grammar were the same person. See Triibner's
" Bibliotheca Glottica," Addenda, p. 237.
