Definition

  • Laki (Kurdish: Lekí ) is a Northwestern Iranian language. Although it is usually grouped with Southern Kurdish dialects, Ethnologue classifies it as a fourth subgroup of Kurdish. It is spoken in the central Zagros region of Iran (provinces of Lorestan, Ilam, Kermanshah, Hamedan, Qazvin, Khuzestan) and in small parts of Iraq by the Lak people. Most Laks live in Nurabad, Alashtar, Harsin, Sahneh, Koohdasht, and Khorramabad.
