Witotoan Language Family

The Witotoan languages are spoken in the rainforests of Colombia, Peru and Brazil. Some have suggested the Witotoan language family may be distantly related to the Cariban languages and/or the Macro-Ge languages, but the evidence for this is very slight.



Witotoan languages include:

  • Boran Languages
  • Bora
  • Muinane
  • Witoto-Ocaina Languages
  • Ocaina
  • Witoto

    • Native Languages
