The Pidjanan languages are a subgroup of Arawakan languages of northern South America.

Names

[edit]

The term Pidjanan was coined by Sérgio Meira (2019) from Wapishana pidan ‘people’, as can be seen in the ethnonyms Wa-pishana and Mao-pidian.[2]

They are referred to as Mapidianic in Glottolog 4.3, and as Rio Branco by Nikulin & Carvalho (2019: 270).[3]

Languages

[edit]

According to Meira (2019), the Pidjanan languages are:[2]

Wapishana is more conservative, while Mawayana has innovated more from Proto-Pidjanan.[2]

Ramirez's (2020) classification is:[1]: 36 

Parawana and Aroaqui are closely related, and may be the same language.[1]
