The languages of Bolivia include Spanish; several dozen indigenous languages, most prominently Aymara, Quechua, Chiquitano and Tupi Guaraní; Bolivian Sign Language (a local variant of American Sign Language); and language of immigrants such as Plautdietsch. Indigenous languages and Spanish are official languages of the state according to the 2009 Constitution. The constitution says that all indigenous languages are official, but then defines "all" as 36 specific languages, some long extinct. Spanish and Quechua are spoken primarily in the Andes region; Aymara is mainly spoken in the Altiplano around Lake Titicaca, Chiquitano is spoken in the central part of Santa Cruz and Guaraní in the southeast on the border with Paraguay. ==List of official languages== "In Bolivia through Act 269 Art. 8 and Political Constitution Art. 5 establish the following languages as official of the state."〔COUTHBERT, George,"(Official Languages of Plurinational State of Bolivia )", Apuntes Juridicos™, 2012 Consulta: Sabado, 25 Agosto de 2012〕 * Araona * Aymara * Ayoreo * Baure * Bésiro * Canichana (extinct) * Castellano * Cavineño * Cayubaba (extinct) * Chácobo * Chimán * Chiquitano * Ese Ejja * Guaraní * Guarasuawe (extinct) * Guarayu * Itonama * Leco * Machajuyai-Kallawaya * Machineri * Maropa * Mojeño-Ignaciano * Mojeño-Trinitario * Moré * Mosetén * Movima * Pacawara * Puquina (extinct 18th century) * Quechua * Sirionó * Tacana * Tapieté * Toromona * Uru-Chipaya (not a single language; only Chipaya is still spoken) * Weenhayek * Yaminawa * Yuki * Yuracaré * Zamuco 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Languages of Bolivia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
