Explanation:
The original question asked what “pankara” means in Aymara, but the term is actually “panqara,” with a letter Q. Q is pronounced more gutterally than K. I come from an Aymara speaking family and region, and my company provides professional translations between Aymara and English.

Example sentence(s):
  • Uka panqaraxa, wali jiwakiwa.
  • That flower is very beautiful.
