<b>Description:</b>
 
Tehuelche is a nearly extinct Chon language spoken by four people in Patagonia out of an ethnic group of 200. They were originally nomadic hunters from Chile. It is also known as Aonikenk or Aonek'o 'ajen. The decline of the language started with the Araucanization of Patagonia, when many Tehuelche tribes adopted Mapudungun as main language. Later during the XIX and XX century Spanish replaced both as Argentina and Chile took possession of Patagonia.
Tehuelche belongs to the Chon family, together with Teushen, Selk'nam and Haush.
Tehuelche has 3 vocalic qualities which can be short or long. (Fernandez 1988: 87-88)
Tehuelche has 25 consonantal phonemes. Stops can be plain, glottalized or voiced. (Fernández 1998: 88-89)
