Tuxá (Tusha; also Todela ~ Rodela, Carapató, Payacú) was the eastern Brazilian language of the Tuxá people, who now speak Portuguese. The language ceased being spoken in the late 19th century, but in the 1960s a research team found two women that had been expelled from the Tuxa tribe in Bahia who knew some thirty words.

Туша (Carapató, Payacú, Rodela, Todela, Tusha, Tuxá) — мёртвый язык, на котором раньше говорил народ туша, который проживает в штатах Баия и Пернамбуку в Бразилии и который в настоящее время говорит на португальском языке. Язык исчез в конце XIX века, но в 1960-х годах группа исследователей обнаружила двух женщин, которые были изгнаны из племени туша в штат Баия, знающие около 30 слов.
