Kekchi Language Facts:
Kekchi is spoken in Guatemala and Belize. In Guatemala, Kekchi is spoken in the departments of Alta Verapaz, Petén, Izabal, Salama, and El Quiché. Several Maya communities in the Toledo District in Belize use this language as their first language, while the majority of Mayas in Toledo speak Kekchi.
Kekchi has traditionally been described as having two dialects: one spoken in Cobán, Alta Verapaz, Guatemala and the surrounding areas; and an "eastern" dialect spoken everywhere else.
There are several orthographies for writing Kekchi, but only two are in widerspread use. One was developed by two Summer Insitute of Linguistics (SIL) field researchers (Francis Eachus and Ruth Carlson) in the 1960s. SIL bibliography for Eachus and Carlson. Though this orthography is no longer considered standard, it remains in circulation in large part due to the popularity of a few texts including the Protestant Bible produced by the SIL/Wycliffe Bible Translation Project, and a widely-used language learning workbook "Aprendamos Kekchi." A newer orthography was developed by the Proyecto Lingüistico Francisco Marroquin in the late 1980s and early 1990s. This orthograhy was later modified by the Academia de Lenguas Mayas de Guatemala (ALMG), and is now considered the standard, official way to write Kekchi (at least in Guatemala.)
In the current orthography there are 33 letters, each of which is meant to correspond to a particular phoneme. These include separate vowels for long and short sounds, as well as glottal stops accompanying certain consonants.
