hi guys I am Vishnu I have chosen this question hope it helps u
Part of the Andes mountain range, Aconcagua is the second highest of the Seven Summits, behind only Mount Everest in Asia. At 22,837 feet (6,961 meters), not only is it the highest mountain in South America, it is the tallest peak in all of the Americas as well as the Southern and Western Hemispheres.
It is not known where the name Aconcagua came from, but one theory is that it derived from Aconca Hue, an Arauca phrase that translates as "comes from the other side" — meaning the other side of the Aconcagua River. Another possibility is that it is derived from Ackon Cahuak, Quechuan words meaning "stone sentinel." Other options for the origin of the name are the Quechuan phrase Ancho Cahuac or "white sentinel," or the Aymara Janq'u Q'awa, meaning "white ravine."
hope it helps you
