Q’anjob’al language
Q'anjob'al (also Kanjobal)〔Other variant names include ''Santa Eulalia Kanjobal'', ''Kanhobal'', ''Qanjobal'', ''Conob'', and ''Eastern Kanjobal''.〕 is a Mayan language spoken primarily in Guatemala and part of Mexico. According to 1998 estimates compiled by SIL International in ''Ethnologue'', there were approximately 77,700 native speakers, primarily in the Huehuetenango Department of Guatemala.〔Centered around the ''municipio'' of Santa Eulalia; owing to recent emigrations there are communities of Q'anjob'al speakers in the United States (see Gordon (2005).〕 Municipalities where the Q'anjob'al language is spoken include San Juan Ixcoy (''Yich K'ox''), San Pedro Soloma (''Tz'uluma' ''), Santa Eulalia (''Jolom Konob' ''), Santa Cruz Barillas (''Yalmotx''), San Rafael La Independencia, and San Miguel Acatán (Pedro Mateo Pedro 2010). Q'anjob'al is taught in public schools through Guatemala's intercultural bilingual education programs.
==Classification==
Q'anjob'al is a member of the Q'anjob'alan branch of the Mayan language family. The Mayan language family includes 31 languages, two of which are now extinct. The Q'anjob'alan branch includes not only Q'anjob'al itself but also Chuj, Akatek, and Jakaltek, also spoken in Guatemala. The Q'anjob'alan languages are noted for being among the most conservative of the Mayan language family, although they do include some interesting innovations.〔Robertson (1992), p.154.〕
