230 in Paraguay, 2,000 in Argentina
It is not known how many speakers of Chorote there are in the ethnic group of 2,000 persons in Argentina. In Paraguay, the language is to be considered seriously endangered, even though all of the approximately 230 members of the ethnic group speak the language.
The Chorote language is used vigorously amongst its speakers.
"The Chorote, who are nomadic hunter-gatherers and fishermen, used to occupy much bigger parts of the Central and Southern Chaco, but they were probably pushed to the northwest by Guaicuruan groups that at their turn were displaced by the Spaniards."
In Paraguay "there were bands of uncontacted [Chorote] until well into the 1970s."
PARAGUAY: in the border area between Paraguay, Argentina and Bolivia, Department of Boqueron, District of Pedro P. Pena. ARGENTINA: in the Province of Salta, departments of Rivadavia and San Martın.
