This programme was first broadcast in 2016.

This is not an accurate word-for-word transcript of the program.

Hinantin presents “Word of the Day”, a series of daily 1-minute podcasts (radio
features), that support your Quechua language vocabulary studies.

ANNOUNCER:

This is your Quechua minute for today, so you could be in the Know!

The Word of the Day is lawa ["la.wa] (in QUZ ) (See example 1).
(1) =lawa
=pudding,dense soup
’dense soup prepared with corn flour, chuño [freeze-dried potato],
moraya, etc. including meat, potatoes and others’
In English it means dense soup prepared with corn flour,
chuño [freeze-dried potato], moraya, etc. including meat,
potatoes and others, it is spelled:
l-a-w-a.

 Now let’s repeat it 3 times: lawa, lawa, lawa.

Now listen to it in context (See example 2):

(2) Churay hamp’ara pataman
=chura -y =hamp’ara =pata -man
=to.put -2.Sg.Subj.Imp =table =top -Ill
ch’uñu lawa p’ukuta, kunallan
=ch’uñu =lawa =p’uku -ta =kuna+n -lla
=chuño.[freeze-dried.potato] =soup =plate -Acc =now -Lim
mikhusaq
=mikhu -saq
=to.eat -1.Sg.Subj.Fut
’Put the bowl of chuño lagua on the table, I will eat it in a
moment.’
This sentence translated into English means ’Put the bowl of chuño
lagua on the table, I will eat it in a moment’.

Now let’s listen the sentence twice:

First time:
Churay hamp’ara pataman ch’uñu lawa p’ukuta, kunallan mikhusaq.
Second time:
Churay hamp’ara pataman ch’uñu lawa p’ukuta, kunallan mikhusaq.
