A lingua tuscarora, cuxo autoglotónimo é skarò˙rə̨ˀ, é unha lingua morta que pertence á familia iroquesa e que foi falada outrora polo pobo tuscarora. Falouse no sur de Ontario, no Canadá, en Carolina do Norte e o noroeste do estado de Nova York na área das cataratas do Niágara, nos Estados Unidos, antes de extinquirse en 2020. A patria histórica dos tuscarora estaba no leste de Carolina do Norte, dentro e arredor de Goldsboro, Kinston e Smithfield.

O termo tuscarora (/ˌtʌskəˈrɔːrə/ quere dicir "xente do cánabo", xa que o cánabo era empregado en moitos aspectos da súa sociedade. Skarureh refírese á camisa longa que se usa como parte dos agasallos dos homes, polo que o nome significa literalmente "xente de camisa longa".

O derradeiro falante fluído de tuscarora morreu en 2020. A mediados da década de 1970, 50 persoas falábano na Reserva Tuscarora (Lewiston, Nova York) e na Reserva das Seis Nacións (preto de Brantford, Ontario). O Colexio Tuscarora de Lewiston esforzouse por manter viva a Tuscarora como lingua patrimonial ensinando aos nenos dende o xardín de infancia ata o sexto curso.
