The Taranoan languages are a subgroup of the Cariban language family, spoken in Brazil, Suriname, and Colombia within the Guianan Carib branch. Its members are Karihona (also called Carijona), Akuriyo, and Tiriyo, along with the extinct Pauxi and Patagon languages. Tiriyo, with about 2,000 speakers, is the only member not close to extinction; Akuriyo and Karihona are known only from a few elderly speakers.
