K’iche’ or Quiché /kiːˈtʃeɪ/ (K’iche’ [kʼiˈtʃeʔ] also Qatzijob’al our language to its speakers) is a Mayan language of Guatemala spoken by the K’iche’ people of the central highlands. With close to a million speakers (some 7% of Guatemala’s population) K’iche’ is the second-most widely spoken language in the country after Spanish. Most speakers of K’iche’ languages also have at least a working knowledge of Spanish. The Central dialect is the most commonly used in the media and education.
