Allophone controversy
I have found no source claiming minimal pairs or near minimal pairs in Media Lengua that contrast [s] from [z]. [z] appears in the following condition [s] --> [+voice]/[+sonorant]___. If you have a source stating otherwise please cite. [ɣ] appears in most environments in both Quichua (chagra "plot of land") and Spanish (trago "alcohol") derived words except word initially and after [n]. [g] only appears as an allophonic variation of [k] when the Quichua voicing rule is conserved (see main article). Yachaykuna (talk) 18:51, 20 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Since there's been no further discussion on the topic, I am removing the the dubious citation from the Imbabura ML IPA chart. Yachaykuna (talk)

Over the next few months I am going to begin an overhaul of this page. Please feel free to add or edit any of it's new content as it appears (after all it is Wiki!). Yachaykuna (talk) 20:59, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

Would be nice to give a few example sentences... AnonMoos 10:16, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Today I went to a talk where the speaker stated that Muysken stated to him that there it is no longer spoken by anyone. Perhaps this should be looked into furthur. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.252.64.254 (talk) 05:05, 14 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Yes, or that it never existed as an actual mixed language at all, but only as code switching. — kwami (talk) 09:59, 21 April 2012 (UTC)

This article is much better now! I'm impressed. Thank you Yachaykuna! To be honest, back in 2006, I intended to work on this article further, found some sources on the web, including one on Imbabura Quechua, but then I couldn't find it again and my motivation was suddenly completely gone. The article is in good shape now, there are only details which have caught my eye. I've made a few small improvements. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 00:48, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi Florian Blaschke, I've only now just seen this post! Thank you for your words of encouragement. Please edit away! Yachaykuna (talk) 16:59, 20 May 2014 (UTC)

Variety of Kichwa?
I put some lang tags. However I don't know what variety of Kichwa are the sample text in. There are 12 ISO 639-3 codes for Kichwa varieties. Which one should be used here. For now, I used a generic qu-EC. Error (talk) 19:28, 12 November 2022 (UTC)
