Parana Arara

The Parana Arara ( Arára Bravos, Pará Arára, Parirí ) is a Caribbean language spoken by the Arara people living in the villages of Cachoeira Seca and Laranjal of the State of Para in Brazil, and with which there is still no connection. Arara's subgroups are apiaka and miranya (apingi), arara-bravos, arara-pariri or arara-mansos and yaruma. The Arara-Bravos subgroup is an exception, from which the real Arara people of Paran come from, all other subgroups have become extinct. Some teens are well qualified in Portuguese. Several school-age children learn to write Arara, but they all write and read well in Portuguese.
