Napeca (Nape, Napeka) is an extinct Chapacuran language. The Napeca people were said to have spoken the same language as those who spoke Quitemoca,[3] and is thought to be a dialect of the same language as Quitemoca.[1] Jürgen Riester documented the language in the 1960s, and recorded some samples.[4][5]
The suffix -ya is sometimes attached after an adjective to indicate the first person singular (e.g. nahuiza-ya 'I am well', literally "healthy-I"); the same construction is present for the second person singular (e.g. nauiza-bum 'you are well', literally "healthy-you").
