Itikovi-Kiyortzani, more commonly referred to as simply Kiyortzani, is a Kiyortzani language first spoken by the Itikov in modern day central Kiyortza, later to spread into the widely spoken language it is today. The name of the language, ''Itikov'', means "Bison Falls", after the river the group was based around.
Itikovi-Kiyortzani, more commonly referred to as simply Kiyortzani, is a Kiyortzani language first spoken by the Itikov in modern day central [[Kiyortza]], later to spread into the widely spoken language it is today. The language is named after the Itikovi, a Central Kiyortzani people group, initially settled on the banks of the Itikov River.

Itikovi-Kiyortzani, more commonly referred to as simply Kiyortzani, is a Kiyortzani language first spoken by the Itikov in modern day central Kiyortza, later to spread into the widely spoken language it is today. The language is named after the Itikovi, a Central Kiyortzani people group, initially settled on the banks of the Itikov River. Both names stem from Iti Kova, or "Buffalo Falls", the name of a prominent waterfall in the region. Itikovi is most closely related to Riyaki, while throughout history it has been heavily influenced by various now-extinct branches of the Kiyortzani language family, the most prominent being that of Piskatri and Loryisi.

While it has few surviving relatives, its relative simplicity as a language alongside heavy Kiyortzani influence in global trade throughout the 18th and early 19th century has allowed it to become a widely spoken language in many parts of Anteria.
