Rocorona, or Ocoróna, is an extinct language of Bolivia of the Chapacuran family. It is known only from three short texts, namely the Lord's Prayer, Ave Maria, and Nicene Creed.

Birchall (2013) presents an in-depth analysis of the surviving Rocorona texts from Jesuit missions in Bolivia. The texts were analyzed by Georges de Crequi-Montfort and Paul Rivet (1913).
