Yurutí is an Eastern Tucanoan language spoken by about 1,200 people mainly in southeastern Colombia, and also in northwestern Brazil. In particular, it is spoken along the Paca and Cano Tí rivers, tributaries of the Vaupés river in the Department of Vaupés in Colombia, and in the Alto Rio Negro Indigenous Territory in northwest of Amazonas State in Brazil.
Yurutí is also known as Juriti, Yutiti-Tapuyo or Wayiara. The people who speak it call themselves Wayiara ("fish people"). It is written with the Latin alphabet.
Other letters may be used in names and words borrowed from other languages.
