Allentiac (Alyentiyak), also known as Huarpe (Warpe), is an extinct Huarpean language.[1][2] It was native to Cuyo in Argentina, but was displaced to Chile in the late 16th century. The language is documented by Luis de Valdivia, a Jesuit missionary, who wrote a grammar, vocabulary and religious texts.[3][4]
Phonology and orthography
The assessment of Allentiac phonology is tentative and complicated by a lack of explanation on the phonetic value of the symbols used to write the language.[5]
Vowels
Allentiac had the vowels a, e, i, o, u, ù, the latter also written ⟨ú⟩ and probably representing [ɨ], thereby having a vowel system reminiscent of that of neighboring Mapudungun. The vowel ⟨ù⟩ may not have always been written, resulting in what are apparently word-initial consonant clusters, and an instance of alternation is attested in Script error: No such module "Lang".~Script error: No such module "Lang". Script error: No such module "IPA". 'fire'.[5]
Consonants
Script error: No such module "IPA". is thought to be represented orthographically by ⟨gu⟩ before ⟨a, o, u⟩ and ⟨hu⟩ before ⟨i, e⟩. ⟨ch, ll, ñ⟩ are "almost certainly" pronounced the same as in Spanish. Script error: No such module "IPA". is written ⟨qu⟩ before ⟨i, e⟩, ⟨q⟩ before "silent" ⟨ù⟩, and ⟨c⟩ in all other positions. An apparently syllabic lateral is also frequent, such as in Script error: No such module "Lang". Script error: No such module "IPA". 'finger'. A series of apparent sibilants are written as ⟨s, x, z, zh⟩; ⟨s⟩ is rather limited in its distribution, found syllable-finally, typically before another consonant (as in Script error: No such module "Lang". 'I vanquish'), as well as in Script error: No such module "Lang". Script error: No such module "IPA". 'ostrich', ⟨x⟩ is evidently a palatal sibilant Script error: No such module "IPA". due to alternations with ⟨s, ch⟩ as in Script error: No such module "Lang".~Script error: No such module "Lang". 'virgin', rather than a velar fricative Script error: No such module "IPA". as assumed by Bartolomé Mitre. ⟨z⟩ is assumed to be a voiced fricative Script error: No such module "IPA"., apparently contrasting with the sequence ⟨ss⟩ between vowels; elsewhere it may have been voiceless Script error: No such module "IPA".. ⟨zh⟩ is tentatively assigned the value Script error: No such module "IPA". as in Script error: No such module "Lang". Script error: No such module "IPA". 'frog'.[5]
Morphology
From Valdivia's materials Allentiac may be seen as an agglutinative, predominantly suffixing language, with a "well-defined" series of case markers and postpositions, in contrast to Mapudungun.[5]
Case
| Case | Allentiac |
|---|---|
| locative | -ta |
| causal | -tati |
| beneficiary | -tayag |
| dative | -ye |
| instrumental | -yen |
| comitative | -ymen |
| genitive | -(e)ch, -(i)ch |
Possession
The person of a possessor may be indicated by attaching the genitive case marker to a singular personal pronoun (Script error: No such module "Lang". 'my', Script error: No such module "Lang". 'your', and Script error: No such module "Lang". 'his'), and by additionally affixing Script error: No such module "Lang". to the pronoun for a plural (Script error: No such module "Lang". 'their'), though the plural marker in verb paradigms is Script error: No such module "Lang"..[5]

Color terms
Color terms in Allentiac are formed by reduplicating an element followed by Script error: No such module "Lang"., as in Script error: No such module "Lang". 'black' and Script error: No such module "Lang". 'red'.[5]

The Lord's Prayer in Allentiac:
