Chukotkan (Chukotian, Chukotic) is a dialect cluster that forms one branch of the Chukotko-Kamchatkan language family. It is spoken in two autonomous regions at the extreme northeast of Russia, bounded on the east by the Pacific and on the north by the Arctic.

The term Luorawetlan (Luoravetlan), used for Chukchi in the 1930s, is actually based on the ethnonym of both the Chukchi and Koryak.
