The grammatical and phonetic relations of the Pano stock have been
judiciously analyzed by M. Raoul de la Grasserie (_Compte-Rendu du
Cong. des Amer._, 1888, p. 438, sq.). The Pano and Culino are seen to
be closely connected, those who use the one doubtless understanding the
other.
The Baré, which is an Arawak dialect, I have inserted here for the sake
of convenience.
The Puinavi is unclassified (see _anté_, p. 278). In the few words above
given, those for “sun,” “water,” and “foot” appear to have affinities to
the Baré.
