Cusco Quechua is a dialect of the Southern Quechua language, spoken in the city and the department of Cusco , Peru .
It is the Quechua variety used by the Academia Mayor de la Lengua Quechua in Cusco, which also prefers the Spanish-based five-vowel alphabet.[4] On the other hand, the official alphabet used by the ministry of education has only three vowels.[5]
