The Hodï (Jotí, Hoti) language, also known as Yuwana (Yoana), Waruwaru, or Chikano (Chicano), is a small unclassified language of Venezuela. Almost nothing is known of it; its several hundred speakers are monolingual hunter-gatherers. Limited by poor data, Henley, Mattéi-Müller and Reid (1996) argue that it may be related to the Nadahup languages. However, the only linguist to speak Hodi and Piaroa, Stanford Zent, has collected more reliable data and argues that it is "probably" related to the Piaroa–Saliban languages.〔Zent S & E Zent. 2008.
