Canamaré (Kanamaré, Kanamari) is an extinct Arawakan language of the Purús River near the Peruvian–Brazilian border. Kaufman (1994) [2] lists it as a Piro language, perhaps a geographic classification; Aikhenvald leaves it unclassified. [3]
It was described as a dialect of Yine in the original wordlist. [4]
Ethnologue 17 confuses it with a living Katuquinan language of the same name. [1]
