North American Language Families

Corachol, also called Coracholan or Cora-Huichol, is a grouping within the Southern Uto-Aztecan branch of the Uto-Aztecan language family, spoken in the Mexican states of Jalisco and Nayarit. Its two living languages, Huichol and Cora, are classified as Mesoamerican languages sharing traits of the Mesoamerican linguistic area; several extinct languages, including Guachichil, Zacateco and Irritila, may also have belonged to the grouping.
