'Yine' is a Southern Maipurean language (Southern Outlier branch) spoken in Brazil and Peru. Formerly referred to as ''Piro'', it belongs to the Piro group which also includes Inapari(†), Kanamaré(†), and Apurinã. The name ''Mashco'' has sometimes been incorrectly applied to the Yine. The Manchineri who live in Brazil (Acre) and reportedly also in Bolivia speak a language that is very similar to Yine.
