Harákmbut or Harákmbet is a small language family in Peru spoken by the Harakmbut people.

Campbell (2012) notes that Adelaar "presents reasonably persuasive evidence that Harákmbut and Katukinan are genetically related."[2]

Language contact

Jolkesky (2016) notes that there are lexical similarities with the Pano, Puinave-Nadahup, Tupian, and Arawakan language families due to contact.[3]

Similarities with Tupian may be indicative of an earlier origin downstream in the Madeira River interaction sphere.[3]:344
