Anglo-Chukchi(Anglo-Chukchi: Дхы Чукчиш Тӹҥ /ðə ˈtʃʊktʃɪʃ ˈtʌŋ/ or simply Чукчиш /ˈtʃʊktʃɪʃ/), also called Chukchish by its speakers, is an English dialect spoken on the Chukchi peninsula, it is believed that the Anglo-Chukchi dialect was brought by English immigrants from the United States in the 19th century.

Anglo-Chukchi speakers were mistaken as a tribe of Chukchis in the era of Russian Empire, although the mistake has been corrected, the name "Chukchi" is still used for the speakers, so does the name "Anglo-Chukchi"

In the first half of the 20th century, speakers of Anglo-Chukchi have undergone an extensive amount of russification, which caused them to adopt Cyrillic script to write their language and to adopt Russian-style names(for example, Johnson was forced to be changed into its corresponding russian form Ivanovich/Иванович, James to Yakov/Яков, Steven to Stefan/Стефа́н, Mary to Mariya/Мари́я, etc.), but their dialect survived.

The influence of Russian is prevalent, Anglo-Chukchi has many terms borrowed from Russian, especially academic terms and terms for modern ideas; also, the influence of local languages can also be seen.

The Wug Test(shows how the plural form of a word is spelled in Anglo-Chukchi):
 * Дхис ис ы ўӹг - This is a wug
 * Наў дхэр ис ынӹдхр̌ ўӹн, дхэр а̄р тӯ ӹф дхэм, дхэр а̄р тӯ ўӹгз - Now there is another one, there are two of them, there are two wugs.(Note that the plural form of Anglo-Chukchi follows the actual pronunciation pretty strictly, so the plural form in this case is represented by -з rather than -с)
