@@N12015 well it isn't evolving on its own like you could say of past english and modern English. It has a heavy influence of Spanish (not saying this as a bad thing tho), so it'd evolve that way rather than a gradual evolution. Plus since there's a real academia de Español, there's always gonna be Spanish in the country which would just make a guarani Spanish evolution too similar to Spanish imo.

La mayoria de la poblacion del Paraguay desciende de los españoles y sus harenes de mujeres guaraníes. Los españoles descubrieron que solo las mujeres guaranies se dedicaban a la agricultura, y ademas podian producir mas trabajadores, las acapararon en grandes cantidades, y los hijos que tuvieron con ellas aprendian el guaraní como primera lengua. Est sistema produjo miles de personas que ya no se consideraban indigenas pero que mantuvieron el idioma hasta la actualidad, a pesar de que fue denigrado e incluso prohibido en muchas epocas, por ejemplo prohibiendo los hermosos apellidos guaranies de las familias mestizas.

An interesting fact: the Tupi language (abánhe'enga) was the lingua franca of colonial Brazil until 1758, when the Marquis of Pombal banned it due to the persecution he had against the Jesuits, being gradually replaced by Portuguese. The Língua Geral Paulista (São Paulo General Language ), descendant of ancient Tupi, was spoken until the beginning of the 20th century, with the Amazonian General Language being the only variant that has survived to this day in some parts of the Amazon.

Hi Paul. Thanks. Excellent job. I'm an English South African and have been living in Paraguay since 1986. As a language teacher I use Spanish and English more often but to get a point through I add some local Guarani Jopara and immediately the local people can grasp it better. I also live on the Brazilian border and therefore have learnt Portuguese too. I have seen locals using a tri lingual code switch. Not to mention the large Mennonite population that speak plattdütch and Guarani as too the large Japanese diaspora that also pick up Guarani quickly. You can find Tupi-Guarani words for animals and places from the northern Amazon in Brazil to the Patagonia in Argentina. Jaguar and Piranha are examples of Guarani words in English.

13:28 It's interesting to see that the word for "beautiful" in Guarani is "porã". In Tupi, it is "poranga" and in Nheengatu, one of the few surviving varieties of Tupi today spoken in the Amazon, it is "puranga". That word is seen in numerous names of places throughout Brazil. I'm loving to see these similarities among languages

It is interesting if they want to learn Guarani they must also learn African languages ​​such as Angolan, since Guarani and Angolan are identical languages. Guarani is a very interesting dialect, it is identical to African languages, and Guarani belongs to the African language families. It also has many words borrowed from African languages, and the phonetics, the similarity of the words is impressive. The latest studies reaffirm that the Guarani share the same DNA as the Africans, because everything fits perfectly, from the features, to the accent, the customs, the gastronomy, it is the same. It is evident that the Guarani are Aboriginal, and it is that the Africans are Aboriginal, that is the reason for the similarity, and their dialect is so identical, even many Africans understand Guarani, there is also another proof.

Spanish speaker here from Argentina, Argentine father and Guarani mother. I know next to nothing about Guarani but thanks to the snippets and fun facts my mom's been telling me, I know it's a very rich language with a lot of colorful place names. My mom is aggressively native when speaking Spanish in Argentina, except when she speaks with a relative or someone that knows Guarani. When that happens, she basically transitions from Spanish, to Spanish with a thick Guarani accent, to half Spanish half Guarani, and then to full blown Guarani. She's basically native, although since she left her home town at a pretty young age she isn't that "advanced". As advanced as a 15 y/o can be in their native language xd According to my mom, there is this river in Paraguay called Tebicuary (In Guarani: tevikuary), which literally translates as "juice of the asshole" (Tevi: ass, kua: hole, ry: juice). ¡Such a lovely language! :D

Realmente el río tiene el color de la diarrea. Pero esa es una cualidad del Guaraní es onomatopeyico esto es, describe el objeto, en castellano cuando existe un objeto nuevo, por ejemplo: televisor, el castellano tiene que recurrir al griego: Tele ( a distancia ) y visor ( que permite ver), el guaraní describe el objeto: ta'anga vyru: objeto que transmite a la distancia una imagen. Esto le permitio sobrevivir. El Guaraní desde el punto de vista científico es un idioma perfecto: es onomatopeyico, polisintetico y aglutinante.

To me, Guarani language sounds so beautiful and elegant! The most interesting part of the phonology is the distinction between nasalisation and denasalisation.(the nasal harmony) Taiwanese has somehow a similar phenomenon though it is not quite a grammar stuff but merely a result of phonological change. The distinction between active and stative verbs reminds me of the Japanese verb distinction of “自動詞/他動詞”.

Soy de Paraguay y puedo decir que es complicado de explicar como utilizamos el Guarani en el habla cotidiana, pues existe un dualismo de ideas respecto al idioma. Algunos lo ven como un lenguaje inculto y otros de manera contraria. La mayoría usa el Jopara como forma de comunicación diaria, pues no existen términos o denominaciones para las palabras modernas como SmartPhone, Facebook, Internet, etc ; pero hay Guaraniólogos que han tratado de adaptarlos al idioma pero no se utilizan, por ejemplo Mbayruguata= auto (mbayru=caja/recipiente + guata=caminar, literalmente= caja/recipiente andante o que camina), suena hasta ridículo esa traducción pues la mayoría de las palabras en Guarani son onomatopeyas de las cosas como parara, pururu, piriri, karau, choguy, chia, etc. (Lastimosamente el teclado de la computadora no tiene letras con pronunciación nasal para escribir correctamente). Se puede hablar el Jopara mayoritariamente Guarani con menos Español= Ha´e nio oho kuri icolegiope Se puede hablar el Jopara mayoritariamente español con menos Guarani= El nio se fue kuri a su colegio Ambos significan la misma cosa y ambos tienen validez al momento de comunicarse, ninguno es mal hablado, algunos dicen que suena muy Tavy=ignorante y tildan al Jopara como Ñe´e Tavy= lenguaje vulgar. Ha quienes hablan solo español pero usan nio, ko, pio, na al final de ciertas palabras, por ejemplo, El nio fue, eso ko no es así, eso pio esta bien, haceme na caso. En fin, cada quien habla como le sea más fácil comunicarse y eso no significa que sea incorrecto.

Hoje ainda é falada em alguns locais da Amazônia e em São Gabriel da Cachoeira-AM foi cooficializada junto ao português e outras 2 línguas indígenas. A língua geral Paulista também baseada no tupi antigo hoje é extinta. No sul do Brasil o guarani também foi quase uma língua geral. Por.pouco o Brasil hoje não é bilíngue. Por decreto de Marques de Pombal e a expulsão dos jesuítas, as línguas gerais foram proibidas. Apesar disso, o português brasileiro herdou cerca de 4.000 vocábulos das línguas tupi-guarani na topônimia, flora, fauna, expressões, culinária etc...a família Tupi-Guarani é a mais importante família linguística indígena dos países a leste dos Andes e a norte da foz do Rio da Prata, especialmente Brasil, Paraguai, Bolívia e norte da Argentina.

That was my first encounter with Guaraní and I'm ashamed to admit that I'd never heard of the language before then. Excellent video!

Excelente!! One more thing, there are some Guarani expressions that we translate to Spanish that and don't make any sense at all to Spanish speakers from other countries. Like, "Che areko voi upea", which we say in Jopara "Yo tengo luego eso", the work "luego" is just how we translate "voi" and its purpose is to emphasize the "I _have_ that". In Jopara we also use some prefixes and suffixes from Guarani, for example, when we ask a question we add "na" to make it more polite, like "Prestame na eso", or "pa" to show that we are being suspicious, for example: "Por qué pa hizo eso?".

After the end of the Triple Alliance war and the occupation of Paraguay by the Brazilian army, Paraguayans were forbidden to speak Guaraní.

In Amazonia (former Grão Pará colony) there is a language called Nheengatu (Yẽgatu), which was, in the colonial period, the language spoken by the majority of amazonians until the end of XIX, when Portuguese became the main language (due to annexation by Brazilian Empire). Despite the geographical distance, Nheengatu is a bit similar to Guarani (both are Tupi-Guarani). Nowadays Nheengatu is an endangered language with some thousands of native speakers. The difference between Nheengatu and Guarani is like the difference between English and Dutch (or German) - Nheengatu is a quite analytical language and simplified like English.

People like my grandparents speak it very well, but it was never a big thing in my house so I never got to pick it up fully. I do understand when others are speaking, but I can never really form full sentences without making my mom or family laugh bc what I said was incorrect.

I was never capable of learning Guarani, which I regret it profoundly.

A difficult video to make even for spanish speakers (there are more resources about Guarani avalaible in Spanish than those in English) Plus: An interesting fact about the verb for "learning/studying", "jetavy'o" is that "tavy" is the noun for "ignorance/mental insanity" so the verb literally means "to detach from ignorance".
