Pataxó (Patashó) or Pataxó Hã-Ha-Hãe (Pataxó-Hãhaãi) is an extinct native language of Brazil formally spoken by the Pataxó people of the Bahía region and of Minas Gerais Pôsto Paraguassu in Itabuna municipality. There is little data but it appears to be Maxakalían. The 2950 individuals in the Pataxó tribe now speak Portuguese though they retain some Pataxó words as well as some words from neighboring peoples.
