Ket language

Ket, formerly known as Yenisei Ostyak, is a Siberian language isolate, apparently unrelated to any other language in the world. It is spoken by about 2,000 people along the middle Yenisei Basin. Attempts have been made by Soviet scholars to establish a relationship with either Burushaski or the Sino-Tibetan languages.
