RIVAS, María Clara Rivas y PINO, Miguel Del. Teaching of Mapuzugun in Chile: Echo-sonority as preparation for the acquisition of the indigenous language. Educación [online]. 2023, vol.32, n.62, pp.185-203. Epub 18-Mayo-2023. ISSN 1019-9403. http://dx.doi.org/10.18800/educacion.202301.008.
This research study focuses on the process of acquiring the indigenous Mapuce language for teaching purposes in order to contribute to current Mapuzugun Indigenous Language programs. Using a dialogic participatory methodology called Kishu Kimkelay Ta Che, we collaborated with teachers and members of the Mapuce community from a rural school in La Araucanía, Chile. Our findings reveal that echo-sonority plays a crucial role in preparing for the teaching of the indigenous language. This preparation involves the relationship between sound-action, onomatopoeia-toponymy, and nature-language. We argue that these results present a necessary challenge to improve indigenous language programs, which mostly operate under a Western logic, making intercultural articulation in schools challenging.
