Of extant languages, Ch'orti' Mayan is the closest to ancient the
Maya hieroglyphic script, but it is a language that is decreasing
in usage. In southern Guatemala where it is spoken, many children
no longer learn it, as Spanish dominates most experiences. From
linguistic and anthropological data gathered over many years, Kerry
Hull has created the largest and most complete Ch'orti' Mayan
dictionary to date. With nearly 9,000 entries, this trilingual
dictionary of Ch'orti', Spanish, and English preserves ancient
words and concepts that were vital to this culture in the past.
Each entry contains examples of Ch'orti' sentences along with their
translations. Each term is defined grammatically and linked to a
grammatical index. Variations due to age and region are noted.
Additionally, extensive cultural and linguistic annotations
accompany many entries, providing detailed looks into Ch'orti'
daily life, mythology, flora and fauna, healing, ritual, and food.
Hull worked closely with native speakers, including traditional
ritual specialists, and presents that work here in a way that is
easily accessible to scholars and laypersons alike.
