Definition
- Záparo is a nearly extinct language from the borderlands of Peru, spoken by only one person out of an ethnic population of 170, in the Pastaza Province, between the Curaray river and Bobonaza rivers, as of 2000. Záparo is also known as Zápara and Kayapwe. Though it was spoken by 1 person in 2000, there is the distinct possibility that it may be extinct. The members of the Záparo ethnic group now speak Quichua, though there is a language revival effort beginning. Záparo is sometimes confused with Andoa, though the two languages are distinct. Záparo has a subject–verb–object word order.
