Taking the excuse of the book recently presented by the linguist Rodolfo Cerrón-Palomino (El chipaya or the language of the men of water), he speaks on television about the chipaya language. The interviewer, holding the book in his hand, told the linguist that he had taken the form of a chipaya graph, for example. The linguist insists that Basque is a linguistic island, but also mentions that the Andino and Basque languages have a non-structural form. In any case, the secular close relationship of the Chipaya language with Quechua and Aymara has been more emphasized.

Huroa is the oldest town in the Peru-Bolivian altiplano and at the same time a linguistic family. There is chipaya, it is the only surviving language of this family. It is a language prior to Aymara and Quechua. Guess why he survived? According to Cerrón-Palomino in the interview, they were rejected and humiliated by the Aimaras, who managed to advance in this harsh and isolated situation. In the twentieth century they were in danger of losing the language, that is, in the decades of 1930-40 they spoke of both Aymara and Chipaya, and the Chipaya was in their tracks. Now, aimara has been abandoned and Spanish has been adopted as a second language. Cerrón-Palomino believes that he is not now in danger of extinction and that the only remaining speakers of the people of the Huros are proud.
