 Yuki is classified as Extinct by the UNESCO Atlas of the World's Languages in Danger [2] | |
Yuki, also known as Ukomno'm, is an extinct language of California, formerly spoken by the Yuki people.[3] The Yuki are the original inhabitants of the Eel River area and the Round Valley Reservation of northern California. Yuki ceased to be used as an everyday language in the early 20th century and its last speaker, Arthur Anderson, died in 1983.[1] Yuki is generally thought to be distantly related to the Wappo language.
