Three related languages in Bolivia, Peru and Chile show dramatically different levels of health: Aymara, spoken by about a third the population of Bolivia and sizable representation in the other countries, is in fairly good shape. Jaqaru is spoken by a few thousand people in and around Tupe, Yauyos, Lima, Peru and by large numbers in the cities of Lima, Huancayo, Chincha, and Cañete; its situation is precarious but not desperate. Kawki is spoken only by a very few people in and around Cachuy, Yauyos, Lima, Peru and is clearly a dying language. The only time we will be able to understand these last two languages, and their relationship with Aymara, is the present. With National Science Foundation support, Dr. M.J. Hardman and colleagues Howard Beck, Elizabeth Lowe McCoy, Sue Legg and Dimas Bautista Iturrizaga will conduct a three-year project to transform a corpus of Jaqaru and Kawki materials consisting of 50 field notebooks of texts, corresponding audiotapes, 450 photographs and related linguistic data into an accessible, archived linguistic research database. The linguistic materials will be digitized, analyzed, parsed, edited, translated and entered into a database. A dictionary of the languages will also be created and made available electronically. This project will make the field notes collected by Hardman over 50 years of linguistic field research in Peru available to the linguistic community. It also builds on the work done from 2004-2007 for the "Aymara on the Internet" Project funded by the U.S. Department of Education. The project will preserve and make available the texts, dictionary and grammar of two highly endangered Andean languages for linguistic research and for the use and future collaboration of heritage. The linguistic material will be translated from Jaqaru and Kawki into Spanish and English. It is anticipated that the government of Peru will want to utilize this project for broader dissemination for bilingual education and language preservation purposes. The broad scope of the linguistic material makes it an attractive sample for such widespread distribution. Its further use and elaboration will serve as a model for other projects.

玻利维亚、秘鲁和智利的三种相关语言显示出截然不同的健康水平：艾马拉语，约占玻利维亚人口的三分之一，在其他国家也有相当大的代表性，健康状况相当好。 在秘鲁的Tibetan、Yauyos、Lima和周围地区，有几千人说Jaqaru语，在利马、万卡约、Chincha和Cañete等城市，也有大量人说Jaqaru语; Jaqaru语的情况不稳定，但并不绝望。 卡基语在卡丘伊、尧约斯、利马、秘鲁及其周边地区只被极少数人使用，显然是一种垂死的语言。我们唯一能够理解这最后两种语言以及它们与艾马拉语的关系的时候，就是现在。 在国家科学基金会的支持下，M. J. Hardman博士和同事霍华德贝克、伊丽莎白洛麦考伊、苏莱格和迪马斯鲍蒂斯塔伊图里扎加将进行一个为期三年的项目，将一个由50个文本、相应录音带、450张照片和相关语言数据组成的Jaqaru和Kawki材料语料库转换成一个可访问的、存档的语言研究数据库。 将对语言材料进行数字化、分析、解析、编辑、翻译并输入数据库。还将编制一本语文词典，并以电子方式提供。该项目将把哈德曼50多年来在秘鲁进行的语言实地研究所收集的实地笔记提供给语言界。 它还建立在2004-2007年由美国教育部资助的“艾马拉人在互联网上”项目所做工作的基础上。该项目将保存和提供两种高度濒危的安第斯语言的文本、词典和语法，用于语言研究和遗产的利用及今后的合作。语言材料将从Jaqaru和Kawki翻译成西班牙文和英文。 预计秘鲁政府将希望利用这一项目更广泛地传播双语教育和保护语言。 语言材料的广泛范围使其成为如此广泛分发的有吸引力的样本。它的进一步使用和拟订将成为其他项目的典范。
