The Kuliak languages, also called the Rub languages, or Nyangiyan languages are a group of languages spoken by small relict communities in the mountainous Karamoja region of northeastern Uganda.
Nyang'i and Soo are moribund, with a handful of elderly speakers. However, Ik is vigorous and growing.
Word order in Kuliak languages is verb-initial.
