Anauyá is an extinct, poorly attested and unclassified Arawakan language of Venezuela, originally spoken on the Castaña River in Amazonas.[2] Its only documentation comes from a 1928 book.[3]
Classification
Kaufman (1994) placed it in his Wainumá branch,[4] but this is not followed in Aikhenvald (1999).[5] It is classified as a member of the Río Negro group by Ramirez and França (2019).[6]
