Mediak is a purported Nilo-Saharan language spoken in the Arusha Region of Tanzania. It is the primary language of the hunter-gatherer Mediak, who have limited comprehension of other languages. Like other such peoples, the Mediak are called the derogatory Dorobo (Ndorobo).[1]
Glottolog has not been able to confirm the existence of the language.[2]
