Warázu

Warázu, also known as Pauserna, Guarasú'we (in Bolivia), or Guarasugwé (in Brazil), is an endangered Tupi–Guaraní language of Brazil and Bolivia.

It is spoken by the Guarasugwé people, who were estimated to number 149 in Bolivia and 101 in Brazil according to recent census results. A 2017 linguistic investigation reported that the language had 4 or 5 active or passive speakers. There were 2 speakers in Pimenteiras do Oeste, in the Brazilian state of Rondônia, Brazil. There were also 2 or 3 speakers in Bella Vista, a town in Magdalena Municipality, Beni, on the banks of the Iténez River. Community leaders are involved in language revitalization efforts in both Bolivia and Brazil.
