Ayoreo is a Zamucoan language spoken in both Paraguay and Bolivia. It is also known as Morotoco, Moro, Ayoweo, Ayoré, and Pyeta Yovai. However, the name "Ayoreo" is more common in Bolivia, and "Morotoco" in Paraguay. It is spoken by Ayoreo, an indigenous ethnic group traditionally living on a combined hunter-gatherer and farming lifestyle.

Classification

Ayoreo is classified as a Zamucoan language, along with Chamacoco. Extinct Guarañoca may have been a dialect.

Geographic distribution

Ayoreo is spoken in both Paraguay and Bolivia, with 3,100 speakers total, 1700 of those in Paraguay and 1,400 in Bolivia. Within Paraguay, Ayoreo is spoken in the Chaco Department and the northern parts of the Alto Paraguay Department. In Bolivia, it is spoken in the Gran Chaco Province, in the Santa Cruz Department.

Phonology

Bertinetto (2009) reports that Ayoreo has the 5 vowels /a, e, i, o, u/, which appear both as oral and nasal.[2]

Grammar

The prototypical constituent order is subject-verb-object, as seen in the following examples (Bertinetto 2009:45-46):

Sérgio ch-ingo caratai aroi tome Ramon.
Sérgio 3-show jaguar skin to Ramon
‘Sérgio showed the jaguar’s skin to Ramon’.
Enga ore ch-ijnoque Víctor aja señóra Emília i-guijnai.
COORD 3P 3-carry Víctor towards señora Emíliahouse
‘And they carried Víctor to Señora Emília’s house’.

Ayoreo is a fusional language.[3]

Verbs agree with their subjects, but there is no tense-inflection.[4] Consider the following paradigm, which has prefixes marking person and suffixes marking number (Bertinetto 2009:29):

y-aca I plant
b-aca you plant
ch-aca he, she, they plant
y-aca-go we plant
uac-aca-y you (pl) plant

When the verb root contains a nasal, there are nasalized variants of the agreement affixes:

ñ-ojne I spread
m-ojne you spread
ch-ojne he, she, they spread
ñ-ojne-ngo we spread
uac-ojne-ño you (pl) spread

Ayoreo is a mood-prominent language.[3] Nouns can be divided into possessable and non-possessable; possessor agreement is expressed through a prefixation.[5] The syntax of Ayoreo is characterized by the presence of para-hypotactical structures.[6]
