Chimila (Shimizya), also known as Ette Taara,[2] is a Chibchan language of Colombia, spoken by the Chimila people, who live between the lower Magdalena river, the Sierra Nevada de Santa Maria and the Cesar river.[3] At one time Chimila was grouped with the Malibu languages,[4] but then Chimila became classified as a Chibchan language.

Julian Steward, in the 1950 Handbook of South American Indians, reports a communication from Gerardo Reichel-Dolmatoff that he considered Chimila to be one of the Arawakan languages, and would thus be expected to be like Tairona, one of the Chibchan languages.[5]
