In this video I will show the pronunciation of the basic sounds of Southern Quechua. My pronunciation is based on that of the Cuzco variety. Therefore, I also include the ejective and aspirated consonants marked with apostrophe (') and (h),  respectively.

Notice that by no means this is the "correct" pronunciation in Southern Quechua, since other varieties like the Chanka, or the Bolivian differ in the specific articulation of the consonants. 

Still, the orthography used here is the *official* one for Southern Peruvian Quechua as well as for Bolivian Quechua: only three vowels are used to convey all the words in this language.
