【萨利希语系】
萨利希语系，若根据当地华民对原住民的称呼，亦可作沙利殊语系。它是北美原住民的一个语系，一共包括23种语言，现时分为以下三个分支：贝拉库拉语族、海岸萨利希语族及内陆萨利希语族。
萨利希语言分布在美国华盛顿州以及加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省环萨利希海一带。
这些语言最显著的特征之一是其极为复杂的辅音结构，例如努哈尔克语（Nuxálk）单词xłp̓x̣ʷłtłpłłskʷc̓ （国际音标：xɬp'χʷɬtɬpɬːskʷʦ'）“他曾经有过一棵草茱萸”有连续13个辅音，中间没有元音。
== 分支 ==
萨利希语系总共有23种语言，下列为这个语系所包括的所有语言、方言及次方言。这个分类表纯綷照语言学的角度来分类，不涉及政治分界上的考虑。若依照当地原住民社群的意愿，不少方言都被认为应视作独立的语言。
