			<h2>Q’anjob’al Spellings</h2>		
		<p>Q’anjob’al (pronounced kan-jo-bal) is an indigenous <a href="https://calinterpreting.com/language-services/maya/">Mayan</a> language to the Q’anjob’al's in the Huehuetenango region of Guatemala. Many people who speak Qatzijob'al | Quiché (<a href="https://calinterpreting.com/services/language-services/k%CA%BCiche%CA%BC-quiche-kichee-translators/">K’iche’</a>) fled into exile or moved away as refugees after the Guatemalan Civil War. The word Q'eqchi means "to sweat," which happens when someone speaks rapidly without taking breaths between sentences.</p><p>Q'anjob'al (Qatzijob'al) is referred to differently in natively spoken areas of Guatemala, Santa Eulalia (Jolom Konob'), San Pedro Soloma (Tz'uluma'), Santa Cruz Barillas (Yalmotx), San Juan Ixcoy, San Miguel Acatán, and San Rafael la Independencia. Names independent of location but may include regional references are: Conob, Eastern Kanjobal, Eastern Qanjobal, K'anjobal, Kanhobal, Kanjobal, Qanjobal, or Santa Eulalia Kanjobal. </p><p>Our research has found that <a href="http://faculty.las.illinois.edu/rshosted/Qanjobal.html">Illinois is one pocket of relocation for Q'anjob'al-speaking Guatemalan ex-pats</a>. Regardless of your location, CIT can easily translate or interpret from Q'anjob'al to English.</p>

			<h2>From Spanish Rooted In Latin</h2>		
		<p>The Qʼanjobʼal alphabet is a form of the Roman alphabet adapted to write sounds in their language which do not exist in English or Spanish.</p><p>The letter ꜥ (Aa) makes the "/a/ sound" such as in "father." The letter Ꜧ (Ee) makes the "/e/ sound" such as in "egg." The letter ꜧ (Ii) makes the /i/ sound /ɪ/ which is found between the words bit and hit. The letter ꜩ (Oo) makes the /oʊ/ sound, which would be found in the word boat. The letter ꜧ (Uu) makes the /u/ sound such as in "put." The letter Ꜵ (Cc) makes a hard /k/ sound, such as found at the beginning of "cat." Here is how all twenty-six sounds of Qʼanjobʼal:</p><p>Aa /a/ as in father</p><p>Bb sounds like a "b" at the beginning of a word and like an "m" or "v" sound in between other sounds.</p><p>Bb /b/ as in bag</p><p>Cc hard k sound at beginning of cat</p><p>Ch /tʃ/ as in cheese</p><p>Dd /d/ as in dog</p><p>Ee /e/ as in egg</p><p>Ff sounds like a normal f sound, but is actually an h sound /h/ between vowels</p><p>Gg sounds like a normal g sound, but is actually an h sound before another vowel that begins with "a"</p><p>Hh /h/ as in hat</p><p>Ii /ɪ/ as bit between bit and hit</p><p>Jj sounds like the s in measure</p><p>Kk /k/ as in cat</p><p>Ll /l/ as in love</p><p>Mm /m/ as in moon</p><p>Nn /n/ as in now</p><p>Oo /oʊ/ as boat</p><p>Pp sounds like an 'h' at the beginning of word and before "u" or "w"</p><p>Qq sounds like a normal k sound, but is actually an h sound before another vowel</p><p>Rr /ɹ/ as in bag</p><p>Ss sounds like a normal s sound, but is actually an h sound after "a" and before another vowel</p><p>Tt sounds like a normal t sound, but is actually an h sound between vowels</p><p>Uu /u/ as in put</p><p>Ww sounds like a normal w sound, but is actually an h sound before another vowel that begins with "a" and after "I" and "e"</p><p>Xx /ks/ as in fox</p><p>Yy /j/ as in yet</p><p>Zz /s/ as in rose</p><p>In addition to the twenty-six letters of the Qʼanjobʼal alphabet, there are five digraphs that represent one sound each: ch, j, qʼ, tz`, and w.</p><p>Ch /tʃ/ as in cheese</p><p>Jj sounds like the s in measure</p><p>Qq sounds like a normal k sound, but is actually an h sound before another vowel</p><p>Tz` /ts/ as in bits</p><p>Ww sounds like a normal w sound, but is actually an h sound before another vowel that begins with "a" and after "I" and "e."</p><p>Here are some words in Qʼanjobʼal:</p><p>Ichel Lix</p><p>Water Tz`ibal</p><p>Tree Than</p><p>Bird Wayx</p><p>Drink Chich</p><p>Dog Chbor</p><p>One Qʼaibʼal</p><p>Two Kebin</p><p>Three Tz`ibin</p><p>Four Kaban (or Kabʼan)</p><p>Five Kankabʼ (or Kanbʼ)</p><p>Six Kwakabn (or Kwakaban)</p>
