Kawahíva (Kawahíb, Kagwahib) is a Tupi–Guarani dialect cluster of Brazil.

The Tenharim (self-designation, Script error: No such module "Lang". 'near, together'), Parintintín, Jiahúi, Amondawa, Karipúna,[a] Uru-eu-wau-wau (self-designation Script error: No such module "Lang".), Piripkúra, Júma, and Capivarí all call themselves Kawahíva. Their speech is mutually intelligible, and also similar with other languages or dialects now extinct. The closest Tupí-Guaraní language seems to be Apiaká,[2] formerly 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:[3][4]

Page Template:Tree list/styles.css has no content.

Languages spoken in north-central Rondônia are Karipúna, Uru-eu-wau-wau (Jupaú), Amondawa, and unidentified varieties by some isolated groups. Languages spoken in northeastern Mato Grosso and southern Pará are Apiaká, Kayabí, Piripkúra, and unidentified varieties by some isolated groups.

Other Kawahíva dialects became extinct, the most recent being Capivara with the death of Pitanga Capivara in the fall 2022.[5] Other varieties include Paranawat at Machado/Ji-Paraná River, Takwatip and Ipotewap at Muqui river, attested by Nimuendajú and Lévi-Strauss around the 1950s.[6][7] Lévi-Strauss also mentions people who were already almost extinct at that time, who lived near the Ji-Paraná river, like the Tucumanfét and the Jabotiféd; and the Mialat, who inhabited the Leitão River region.
