Description
Aymara is one of the major languages of South America and the official language of Bolivia and Peru. It is through this dialect that the native Aymara people are continuing an authentic, unbroken link back to the great native civilisations of the Andes, and keeping the human connection alive with their ancestors.
The dialect prides itself with remarkable pronunciation, eloquence and the ability to lever abstract concepts.
This mysterious language which linguist Ludovico Bertonio attempted to learn in the early 17th century, will surely captivate you with its natural perfection.
