Definition
- The Alutiiq language (also called Sugpiak, Sugpiaq, Pacific Gulf Yupik, Chugach, Koniag-Chugach, Suk, Sugcestun) is a close relative to the Central Alaskan Yup'ik language spoken in the western and southwestern Alaska, but is considered a distinct language. It has two major dialects: * Koniag Alutiiq: spoken on the upper part of the Alaska Peninsula and on Kodiak Island; was also spoken on Afognak Island before it was deserted in the wake of the 1964 Good Friday Earthquake. * Chugach Alutiiq: spoken on the Kenai Peninsula and in Prince William Sound.
