New Country New Orange

Orange in Kaqchikel is qanq'oj, and the fruit is xna'j. Kaqchikel is the language spoken by a group of Mayan people living in the highlands of Guatemala. It has ejective consonants and glottal stops with phonemic value (which for the most part we don't have in english- two exception being the [k'] in /like/ and /uh'oh/)

I am thrilled to go to Antigua, Guatemala, and I am thrilled to learn this language. This unacceptable orange will happily travel the world and transcribe her viewpoint on it for all of you happy readers out there. Who knows, maybe you will learn some kaqchikel. One thing should be noted, however. Orange is NOT unacceptable in highland Guatemala. In fact the

clothes could not be more colorful. For example here is a p'as. I think my colorful personality may fit right in. Yet, the title of this blog stays. I'm sure it'll find its reason in Guatemala as well.
