Koropó language

Koropó (Coropó) is an extinct language of eastern Brazil.

It has been variously classified as a Maxakalían or a Purian language.

Although Silva Neto (2007) had assumed Koropó to be a Purian language,[2] Nikulin (2020) classifies Koropó as Macro-Jê (Maxakalían branch).

[3] Koropó is attested by two word lists collected by German explorers in the early 1800s:[4] In the 18th century, Koropó speakers lived with Coroado Puri speakers along the Pomba River in Minas Gerais.
