O gilaki é unha lingua caspia e un membro das linguas Irania do noroeste, falada na Provincia de Gilan, en Irán.[1][2] O gilaki está estreitamente relacionado co mazanderani e as dúas linguas teñen un vocabulario semellante. A linguas gilaki e mazanderani (pero non outras linguas iranias) comparten certos trazos tipolóxicos coas linguas caucásicas,[3][4] reflectindo a historia, a identidade étnica e a relación da rexión do Cáucaso cos pobos gilaki e mazanderani.
