The Inland Gulf languages are a family of Trans–New Guinea languages in the classifications of Stephen Wurm (1975) and Malcolm Ross (2005). The unity of the languages was established by K. Franklin in 1969. Although the family as a whole is clearly valid, Ipiko is quite distinct from the other languages.

Pronouns for the Minanibai branch are:

sg pl
1 *no *ni
2 *go *dau
3 ? *eti

Ipiko only reflects 1pl *ni.
