== Dialects and subgroups ==
Siberian Yupik has two dialects: Chaplinski Yupik is spoken on the shores of the Chukchi Peninsula in the Russian Far North, and St. Lawrence Island Yupik (Sivuqaghmiistun) is spoken on St. Lawrence Island, Alaska. The majority of Chaplinski Yupik speakers live in the villages of Novoye Chaplino and Sireniki, on the coasts of the Chukchi Peninsula. St. Lawrence Island Yupik is believed to be an offspring of Chaplinski and apart from some few phonetic, phonological, morphological, syntactical and lexical peculiarities is practically identical with it.〔Daria Morgounova (2004).

Chaplino, or ''Ungazighmiistun'', is the largest Yupik language of Siberia (the second one is Naukan), and is named after the settlement of Ungaziq (Novoe Chaplino). The word ''Ungazighmii'' / Уңазиӷмӣ〔Menovshchikov 1962:89〕〔same suffix for another root (Rubcova 1954: 465)〕 (plural ''Ungazighmiit'' / Уңазиӷмӣт 〔Rubcova 1954:220,238,370 (tale examples)〕〔Menovshchikov 1962:1〕) means "Ungaziq inhabitant(s)". People speaking this language live in several settlements in the southeastern Chukchi Peninsula〔(Endangered Languages in Northeast Siberia: Siberian Yupik and other Languages of Chukotka ) by Nikolai Vakhtin〕 (including Provideniya, Uelkal, and Sireniki), Wrangel Island,〔 Anadyr, and Novoye Chaplino.〔(Asian Eskimo Language ) by Endangered languages of Indigenous Peoples of Siberia〕 In another terminology, these people speak Chaplino, and Ungazighmiit people speak one of its dialects, along with other dialects spoken by Avatmit, Imtugmit, Kigwagmit, which can be divided further into even smaller dialects.〔
