Aroaqui (Aroaki) is an extinct Arawakan language of Brazil that was spoken in the lower Rio Negro region, probably on the banks of the Cuieiras River.[1][2] Some Aroaqui groups were also located around the mouth of the Amazon River near Macapá.[1]: 14
A word list of Aroaqui was collected by Johann Natterer (1832) in Airão.[1]
Aroaqui and Parawana are closely related, and may be the same language.[1]
