Kawésqar (Qawasqar) also known as Alacaluf is an Alacalufan language spoken in southern Chile by the Kawésqar people. Originally there were three regional dialects (northern central and southern). Kakauhua (Chono) is sometimes listed as a related language but it is completely unattested. Only about 20 speakers remain half of them on Wellington Island off the southwestern coast of Chile.
