Tuyuca is an Eastern Tucanoan language spoken by about 1,400 people mainly in southeastern Colombia and also in northwestern Brazil. In particular, it is spoken along the Papuri, Inambú and Tiquié rivers in the Department of Vaupés in Colombia, and in the Alto Rio Negro Indigenous Territory in northwest of Amazonas State in Brazil.
Tuyuca is also known as Dochkafuara, Tejuca, Tuyuka, Dojkapuara, Doxká-Poárá, Doka-Poara or Tuiuca. Tuyuca speakers call it Docapúaraye, and themselves Dokapuara, Utapinõmakãphõná, Umerekopinõ or Utapinoponã ("sons of the stone snake”). It is written with the Latin alphabet.
Other letters may be used in names and words borrowed from other languages.
