The Pomoan or Pomo /ˈpoʊmoʊ/ languages are a small family of Native Californian languages spoken by the Pomo people who formerly occupied the valley of the Russian River and the Clear Lake basin. With the exception of Kashaya which has perhaps as many as 100 speakers most of the Pomoan languages are severely endangered—spoken only by a handful of elderly people. Northern Pomo and Northeastern Pomo are without known speakers and presumed to be extinct.
