Other peoples in the western Lakes Plain area speak basic Iau. Iau is tonal. Dialects are Foi (Poi), Turu, Edopi (Elopi), and Iau proper; these may be distinct enough to be considered separate languages. Foi is spoken on the large Tariku River (Rouffaer River), Turu on the Van Daalen River, Iau proper between the rivers, and Edopi at the juncture of the Tariku and Kliki (Fou) rivers. Another name for the language is Urundi ~ Ururi. Dosobou (Dou, Doufou) is specifically Edopi.
