Xocó (Chocó, Shokó) is a dead and poorly attested language or languages of Brazil that is not known to be related to other languages. It is known from three populations: Xokó (Chocó) in Sergipe, Kariri-Xocó (Kariri-Shoko, Cariri-Chocó) in Alagoas, and Xukuru-Kariri (Xucuru-Kariri, Xucuru-Cariri) in Alagoas. It is not clear if these were one language or three. It is only known from a few dozen words from one Kariri-Xoco elder and three Xukuru-Kariri elders in 1961.

It was originally spoken along the Piancó River is an area that is now a suburb of Porto Real do Colégio.[2]

In ISO encoding, the language was conflated with the Kariri family as ISO 639-3 [kzw] 'Karirí-Xocó'; Ethnologue does not indicate if this was a conscious decision.

Other languages with this name

Xoco, Xukuru, and Kariri are all common generic names in the region. See Kariri languages.

[ru] Шукуру

Шукуру (Karirí, Karirí-Xocó, Kariri Xucó, Kipeá, Xocó, Xokó, Xokó-Karirí, Xukurú, Xukuru Kariri) — мёртвый и плохо изученный язык Бразилии. Он известен под многими разновидностями: шоко (чоко) в штате Сержипи, карири-шоко (карири-чоко) в штате Алагоас, и шукуру-карири в штате Алагоас. Пока не ясно, был это один язык или это три языка. В 1961 году он был только известен дюжиной слов от одного старейшины карири-шоко и от нескольких старейшин шукуру-карири. У языка есть диалекты камуру (чоко), карири-шоко (карири-чоко), сабужа (педра-бланка). В настоящее время народ говорит на португальском языке.
