Chácobo children are learning the language as a first language, but Pakawara is moribund. Karipuna may have been a variant; alternative names are Jaunavô (Jau-Navo) and Éloe. Several sleeping and unattested languages were reported to have been related, perhaps dialects. These include Capuibo and Sinabo/Shinabo of the Mamoré River. However, nothing is actually known of these purported languages.David Fleck, 2013, ''Panoan Languages and Linguistics'', Anthropological Papers of the American Museum of Natural History #99 Examples Montaño Aragon, M.

Kawahib Language
Kawahíva (Kawahíb, Kagwahib) is a Tupi–Guarani dialect cluster of Brazil. The major variety is Tenharim. The Tenharim (self-designation, Pyri 'near, together'), Parintintín, Jiahúi, Amondawa, Karipúna (not to be confused with neither the Panoan group, nor the Carib-based creole spoken in the state of Amapá, which all have the same name), Uru-eu-wau-wau (self-designation, Jupaú), Júma, Piripkúra, and Capivarí all call themselves ''Kawahíva''. Their speech is mutually intelligible, and also similar with other languages now extinct. The closest Tupí-Guaraní language seems to be Apiaká, spoken in Mato Grosso. Varieties There are different internal classifications of the pan-Kawahíwa, which differ in, e.g., whether Kayabí and Apiaká should be included as part of the dialectal cluster. The one listed in Aguilar (2013, 2018) follows: *Northern Kawahíwa ** ** ** ** *Southern Kawahíwa **Jupaú () ** ** ** Apiaká **Kayabí (Kawaiwete) ** **isolated groups Lan ...
