Pankararú (Pancaré, Pankaré, Pancaru, Pankaruru, Pankarará, Pankaravu, Pankaroru, Pankarú, Brancararu) is an extinct language of eastern Brazil.
Today, they live in Brejo dos Padres and other villages of Tacaratu, Pernambuco State.
The identity of the rest of the vocabulary has not been identified, and Pankararú may be a language isolate.
Kalankó (Cacalancó), with descendants now living in Água Branca, Alagoas, may have also been related to Pankararú.
