Yurokça

Yurokça ya da Yurok dili (kendilerince Puliklah, İngilizce Yurok, Weitspekan), Amerika Birleşik Devletleri'nin Kaliforniya eyaletinin kuzeybatısında Yuroklar tarafından konuşulmuş olan Algonkin–Yurok dilleri ailesinden bir Amerind Kızılderili dilidir. Bir düzine konuşanı olan dil yok olma sürecine girmiştir. En yakın akrabası birlikte Ritwan adıyla da ele alınan Viyotça en uzak akrabaları ise Algonkin dilleridir. Hem Viyotça hem de Yurokça Algonkin dillerinin coğrafyasından oldukça uzakta izole bir alandadır.

Yurok adı Karukça yúruk («downriver») kelimesinden gelir. Kendi adları olan Puliklah ise pulik («downstream») kelimesiyle -la («people of») ekinden kuruludur.Campbell (1997:401)
