Nüpode Huitoto (noo-poh-deh wee-toh-toh) is an indigenous language of the Americas spoken by just one hundred people in the South American country of Perú's northeastern Loreto province, where it has official standing. Speakers also use the other two Huitoto languages (Murui and Minica). It is written using the roman alphabet and has had some bible portions translated into it in addition to a dictionary and grammar rules.[1]
