[[File:Kuduk Language Map.jpeg|250px|thumb|upright|Range of Kuduk dialect groups in Kuduk]]
It is estimated that there are at least 6 major varieties of Kuduk. These dialects form a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dialect_continuum dialect continuum], in which differences in speech generally become more pronounced with greater distance. Generally, smaller clusters of tribes such as the Eastern Woodland Tribes and the Southern Heiki Tribes exhibit a larger frequency of differing dialects. The cities, although not officially given a dialectical category, also have a distinct form of speech of their own that usually differs from its tribe. An example would be [[Naryan]], a city with a specific dialect apart from the [[Manirak|Manirak Tribe]] that employs the heavy use of foreign loanwords.
