Geographical distribution of the Borôroan languages

The Borôroan languages of Brazil are Borôro and the extinct Umotína and Otuke. They are sometimes considered to form part of the proposed Macro-Jê language family,[1][2]: 547  though this has been disputed.[3]: 64–8 

They are called the Borotuke languages by Mason (1950), a portmanteau of Bororo and Otuke.[4]
