Tapirapé language
Tapirapé (also known as Apyãwa) is a Tupí-Guaraní language of Brazil. Language contact. Ribeiro (2012) finds a number of Apyãwa loanwords in Karajá (such as "bèhyra" ‘carrying basket’, "kòmỹdawyra" ‘"andu" beans’, "hãrara" ‘macaw (sp.)’, "tarawè" ‘parakeet (sp.)’, "txakohi" ‘Txakohi ceremonial mask’, "hyty" ‘garbage (Javaé dialect)’) as well as several Karajá loans in Apyãwa ("tãtã" ‘banana’, "tori" ‘White man’, "marara" ‘turtle stew’, "irãwore" ‘Irabure ceremonial mask’). Some of the latter loans are also found in other Tupí-Guaraní languages closely related to Apyãwa, such as Parakanã and Asuriní of Trocará ("sata" ‘banana’, "toria" ‘White man’).</ref> Tapirapé language
