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.
