Comments: Some lexical correspondences with Guinau (Arawak) and Warao (Chibchan) Greenberg classified it provisionally as Macro-Tucanoan. Most have intermarried with Arecuna (Pemon) and a few with Arutani and Ninam. There are conflicting reports on the number of speakers and degree of bilingualism. Nearly extinct.
