Comecrudo language
Comecrudo is an extinct Pakawan language of Mexico. The name "Comecrudo" is Spanish for "eat-raw"; "Carrizo" is Spanish for "reed". It was best recorded in a list of 148 words in 1829 by French botanist Jean Louis Berlandier (Berlandier called it "Mulato") (Berlandier "et al." 1828–1829). It was spoken on the lower Rio Grande near Reynosa, Tamaulipas, in Mexico. Comecrudo has often been considered a Coahuiltecan language although most linguists now consider the relationship between them unprovable due to the lack of information. Comecrudo tribal names were recorded in 1748 (Saldivar 1943): In 1861, German Adolph Uhde  published a travelogue with some vocabulary (Uhde called the language "Carrizo") (Uhde 1861: 185–186). In 1886, Albert Gatschet recorded vocabulary, sentences, and a short text from the descendants (who were not fluent) of the last Comecrudo speakers near Camargo, Tamaulipas, at Las Prietas (Swanton 1940: 55–118). The best of these consultants were Emiterio, Joaquin, and Andrade. An automated computational analysis (ASJP 4) by Müller et al. (2013) found lexical similarities with Uto-Aztecan, likely due to borrowings.
