Urarina is a language spoken in Peru, specifically in the Loreto Region of Northwest Peru, by the Urarina people. There are only around 3000 speakers alive today according to the 2002 Ethnologue.[1] It uses a Latin script. It is also known as Itucali, Simacu or Shimacu.[2]

It has a canonical word order of object–verb–subject which is very rare among the world's languages.[3][4]
