    Guaraní specifically the primary variety known as Paraguayan Guarani meaning "the people's language" is a South American language that belongs to the Tupi-Guarani family of the Tupian languages. It is one of the official languages of Paraguay (along with Spanish), where it is spoken by the majority of the population, and where half of the rural population are monolingual speakers of the language. It is spoken by communities in neighboring countries, including parts of northeastern Argentina, southeastern Bolivia and southwestern Brazil, and is a second official language of the Argentine province of Corrientes since 2004; it is also an official language of Mercosur. Guaraní is one of the most widely spoken American languages, and remains commonly used among the Paraguayan people and neighboring communities.

    interesting that Paraguay manage not just preserve the language but that a huge number of non-amerindians also spoken it

      A native language but spoken also by white people who were born in Paraguay

    You missed the very interesting fact that Paraguay is the SOLE country in the Americas where a native language is still the mother tongue of the majority of the population, not only indigenous (who make only a minority) but manly mestizo or even white people. Even Bolivia and Guatemala doubiously reach 50%, as I understand, despite of having +50% of ethnic amerindians, but many of them Spanish native speakers.

    I am brazilian, from Rio de Janeiro, my father was from Bahia, he could speak Nheengatu, which is similar to guarani, this is a modern tupi-guarani, the language which was spoken by the brazilian indigenous tribes before the portugueses invasion.

      Interesting, it is like Ñe'engatu, stresed in 'u', which means 'talkative'.

    Guarani language is available for Google translate. Along with Quechua and Aymara languages due expansion of Google Translate event and even Ilocano as part of man of culture and man of steel.

    5:28 We generally use the term "ru" instead of "túva", for example:
    "che ru omba'apo" (my father works), "nde ru oguereko vakakuéra" (your father has cows), "ñande ru oúta ko'ẽro" (our father will come tomorrow), "eraha kóa nde rúpe" (take this to your father),
    " túva" we usually use it to a lesser extent as: "eme'ẽ péa itúvape" (give this to his father) or "túva kuéra oñembyaty" (parents (or fathers) meet), and mostly we pronounce "túa" instead of "túva"

    I am Brazilian, I will probably in the near future study Guarani, I've been already studying Old Tupi, the one that was spoken on Brazilian shores five centuries ago, and it is very interesting to see similarities between Guarani and Old Tupi, I could identity words and even compare them with what I know, I wish I could know more but I still can only identify some words. I live in São Paulo, we should be speaking Southern Tupi here (Tupi Austral) , the whole population of "Paulistania" should be speaking Tupi Austral, but unfortunately the Portuguese administration forced us, the Caipiras, to speak Portuguese only, effectively killing Tupi in Southern Brazil, I love Portuguese, it is a fantastic heritage that me and many of us Brazilians have, but Brazil should have been a federation with many nations and many languages inside, as it happens in Russia for example, Portuguese should have been only the Língua Franca, uniting the union, but not killing the heritages we had in our regions, as for Tupi, we can only look at the past and see how Brazil could have been a multilingual country, it would have made everything more interesting and rich in knowledge.

  • @paulovictormarchidacruz4062

    I'm from Brazil and you guys have no idea the importance of the Guarani language to our lives and our Portuguese. Many common words, cities' names, states' names, known places' names... I could stay here writing down the contributions of the indigenous languages (specially the old Tupi and the Guarani), but I'll only leave here some examples:
    Vale do Anhangabaú (Anhangabaú valley) is a place in the city of São Paulo. Paraná ("sea") is a state of southern Brazil. Pindamonhangaba ("place where fish hooks are made") is a city. Sergipe ("in the river of the crabs") is a state of northeastern region. Abacaxi ("smelly fruit", pineapple). Cutucar ("to stick", but now it means "to poke"). Jururu ("hanging neck", it means, as a slang,"sad" today). Pindaíba ("fishing rod", it is a slang to mean "in misery" and "out of money").

    Very similar to Nheengatu & the lingua geral paulista. In Brazil we had 2 languages from the Tupi Guaraní language family spoken on a massive level. Nheengatú in the Amazon region (which today is spoken by some 20k people in the Alto Rio Negro & Baixo Tapajós Rivers) & the Lingua Geral Paulista, spoken in the Southeast & some parts of the Central West in a region known as the Paulistânia. Many Bandeirantes (explorers from São Paulo who explored much of the Brazilian Interior) were monolingual solely the Language and required translators to speak to those monolingual in Portuguese. However, both languages greatly decreased in numbers after in 1758 they were banned by the Portuguese. The Lingua Geral Paulista eventually went extinct but Nheengatú is still standing today.

    Yerba Mate, as a beverage served as shown in the video, originated with the interactions between the Guarany people and Iberian priests in what is now the state o Paraná, in Brazil. We call it “chimarrão” in Portuguese, and it’s very popular in the 4 Brazilian states that border Argentina and Paraguay.

    by the way, the "ethnicity" is wrong, the majority of speakers are mestizos, not guaranies

      I believe she meant that's the ethnicity from which the language originates. Not to mention the indigenous people usually speak it better than the mestizos
