It is found in the northeastern corner of Asia, adjacent to the areas of the Tungusic, Yukaghir, and Eskimo-Aleut languages, and is made up of Chukchi, Kerek, Alyutl, Koryak, and Kamchadal (or Itelmen). In terms of closeness within the family, Kamchadal is the most distant from the other four. It has an ergative construction, and most languages show vowel harmony, a type of incorporation that can incorporate a noun stem into a verb. There is no certainty about its genealogical relationship with other languages in the world, and for convenience it is included in the Old Asian languages.
