Two examples from the book

In a scene from the book, someone asks where the vicuña lives. Look at the question and two descriptions:

¿Maypitaq wikuña tiyan?

Where does the vicuña live?

Wikuñaqa pampapi tiyan.

The vicuña lives on the open plain.

Atuq machaypi pakakun.

The fox hides in a cave.

These phrases refer to the examples in the book. They do not describe every place where each animal can live.

The English translations and usage nuances are still under review.
