As linguas salish son unha familia de linguas do Pacífico noroeste de América do Norte, faladas na provincia canadense da Columbia Británica e nos estados de Washington, Oregón, Idaho e Montana, nos Estados Unidos. As linguas salish caracterízanse por ser aglutinantes e consoantes silábicas. Por exemplo, a palabra nuxalk clhp’xwlhtlhplhhskwts’ (xɬpʼχʷɬtʰɬpʰɬːskʷʰt͡sʼ), quere dicir "el tivera [na súa posesión] unha planta de abuxo", ten doce consoantes obstruentes seguidas sen vogais fonéticas nin fonémicas.

As linguas salish son un bloque xeograficamente contiguo, agás a lingua nuxalk (Bella Coola), na costa central da Columbia Británica, e a extinta lingua tillamook, ao sur da costa central de Oregón.
