Tariana is an endangered Arawak language from the northwest Amazonian jungle. It exists in a strongly multilingual environment and often combines its own features with those borrowed from neighboring indigenous languages. Tariana has many unusual properties, including evidentiality. This grammar provides a unique resource for a wide range of linguists.
