Ik (also known as Icetot, Icietot, Ngulak or (derogatory[further explanation needed]) Teuso, Teuth) is one of the Kuliak languages of northeastern Uganda. The Kuliak languages form their own branch of the proposed Nilo-Saharan language family. With the other two Kuliak languages being moribund, Ik may soon be the sole remaining language of its family.
A comprehensive dictionary and grammar of Ik has been published in Schrock (2017).[2]
