Abstract

The Ayoreo people are a hunter-gatherer group of South American Gran Chaco. Census data on population and housing carried out in 2012 in Paraguay and Bolivia showed a total of 1862 Ayoreode in Bolivia (CEDIB 2012) and 2481 in Paraguay (DGEEC 2012). The language lacks a clear paradigm of articles. However, definiteness may be marked by possessive prefixes and demonstratives serving as determiners of the noun (mandatory for body parts and kinship terms) and demonstrative pronouns.
