Alak is a language spoken by some 4,000 people in southern
Laos, especially in the Provinces of
Salavan and
Sekong (where the
Alak people make up over a fifth of the population). It is closely related to the language spoken by the
Bahnars of Vietnam. It includes two dialects, Alak proper and Harak.
