Hixkaryana language
Hixkaryana
is one of the
Carib languages
, spoken by just over 500 people on the
Nhamundá River
, a tributary of the
Amazon River
in
Brazil
. It may have been the first language to be described as having an
object–verb–subject
word order (by linguist
Desmond C. Derbyshire
), though determining this is "difficult".
