The Borôroan languages of Brazil are Borôro and the extinct Umotína and Otuke. They form part of the Macro-Jê proposal.
Greenberg linked the Chiquitano language isolate of Bolivia, with 20,000 speakers, with the Borôro family, but this was never substantiated, and Chiquitano is not generally part of the Macro-Ge proposal that includes Bororo.
