In this paper we report about 450 names of places, plants, animals, diseases and objects in aimara collected in the basin of Tambopata River comprising three districts in its route: Yanahuaya, San Juan del Oro and Putina Punco. linguistically we analyze (from phonological, lexical and semantic viewpoints) variation of the names related to the language spoken in the area. The stated hypothesis has been validated: the abandonment of a language and culture is slow; The goal of studying the dialectalization of Aymara, and its patterns of denotation and connotation has been achieved. This study will be useful for developing linguistic mapping and preparing regional dictionaries. This work will also contribute to the Andean wisdom present in this cultural progress, strengthening interculturality. The theory of dialectal variation, the method of linguistic geography or geolinguistics is applied to establish isoglosses separating the language varieties, with a descriptive-interpretive approach inspired in structural and functional linguistics.
