Man's Effort to Revive Indigenous Language in Argentina Blas Omar Jaime, 89, is on a mission to revive the Chaná language, spoken by the Indigenous people in Argentina and Uruguay. His mother, Ederlinda Miguelina Yelón, passed down the knowledge to him, urging him to keep it secret. After discovering that no one else spoke Chaná, he embarked on a journey to resurrect the language, producing a dictionary of 1,000 words. His daughter, Evangelina Jaime, is now learning and teaching Chaná, aiming to break the generations of silence. This effort is crucial for preserving Indigenous history and identity in Argentina.
