Tubar or Tubare, is an extinct language of southern Chihuahua, Mexico that belonged to the Uto-Aztecan language family.

Morphology

[edit]

Tubar is an agglutinative language, where words use suffix complexes for a variety of purposes with several morphemes strung together.[2][3]

Sample text

[edit]

The following two samples are the Lord's Prayer in Tubar.[4]

Ite cañar tegmue carichui catemat;
Imit tegmuarac milituraba teochigualac;
Imit huegmica cariniti bacachin-assisaguin
Imit avamunarir echu nañigualac imo cuigan

ackiró muetzerac ite.
The other versoin of the Lord's Prayer is slightly different from the first; it may be transcribed differently or be a different dialect.

Hite cañac temo calichin catema;
