Project Profile

Quechua OT Cluster

Languages participating in this cluster:

  • North Conchucos
  • South Conchucos
  • Huaylas
  • Huamalies
  • Margos

High in the Peruvian Andes, speakers of related languages are working to translate the Old Testament for people who each speak one of these languages. This project is using CARLA (Computer Assisted Related Language Adaptation) computer software to adapt the completed draft of the Old Testament in one language into rough drafts for the others, helping local translators complete five Old Testaments. Funding provides a stipend for the national translators plus travel, food and lodging to participate in workshops. It also covers computer equipment and software for the adaptation work and frees qualified translation consultants to help other translation projects around the world.
