Náwa language

Extinct language of Brazil From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Môa Nawa is an obsolescent indigenous language spoken in the Brazilian Amazon Basin.[2] It is a Panoan language, and seems to be close to Poyanawa, but classification is difficult due to a near lack of data – it might not be a distinct language at all.[1]
