Perhaps one or two semi-speakers? Uruák’s status is in doubt; it appears unlikely that any speakers remain; however, this needs urgently to be confirmed. Only 5 remaining speakers were reported in the 1960s, intermarried with Ninam (Yanomaman) speakers (Migliazza 1978:135). Coppens (1970b) reported that the Uruák were highly integrated into Sanuma (Yanomaman) culture and spoke Sanuma in their daily conversations. Laura Perozo (2008:774-5) reported that the sociocultural research team found no speakers of Uruák, but they did encounter one person in the village of Karukén who claimed to be a speaker of both Uruák and Sapé, though it was not possible to verify this.

DATE OF INFO: 2013

PLACES: Venezuela, Brazil

LOCATION DESCRIPTION: Uruák (a.k.a. Awaké, Ahuaqué, Urutani, Arutani) was spoken on the upper Paragua and Uraricaá rivers near Mount Urutani of the Venezuela-
Brazil border.
