Guaraní...
"Guaraní is spoken by more than a million people living in
Paraguay and in adjacent areas of Brazil and Argentina.   Guaraní
is essentially the national language of Paraguay, although
Spanish is the language of government and education.   A Jesuit
mission
among the Guaraní Indians was established as early as
1579.   Luiz de Mantoya reduced the language to writing, but no
Scriptures were printed at that time.

The Tupi-Guaraní language family includes such far-flung
South American tongues as Cocama of Peru, Guarayo of
Bolivia, Nyengato of Colombia, the Tupian languages of the
southern Amazon Basin, and many Guaranían tongues of south-
ern Brazil."

Guaraní: Izoceño...
"During the early 16th century, Guaraní- speaking migrants
arrived in southeastern Bolivia, where their language was
adopted by numerous indigenous tribes.   Of the various dialectal
forms developed, the usage of the Parapeti River area is known
as Izoceño (derived from the town of Izozog).   It is related to
Chiriguano, Guarayo, Sirionó, and other Guaranían tongues of
that region."
