Lahu (autonym: ''Ladhof'' ) is a Tibeto-Burman language spoken by the Lahu people of China, Thailand, Myanmar, and Laos. It is widely used in China, both by Lahu people, and by other ethnic minorities in Yunnan, who use it as a lingua franca. However, the language is not widely used nor taught in any schools in Thailand, where many Lahu are in fact refugees and illegal immigrants, having crossed into Thailand from Myanmar. == Dialects == A few dialects are noted, which are each known by a variety of names: * Lahu Na (Black Lahu, Musser Dam, Northern Lahu, Loheirn) * Lahu Shi (Yellow Lahu, Kutsung); the divergent ''la53 xu31 sɯ33'' dialect is spoken in Nanduan 南段村 (Lahu: ''na31 tɔ35'') Village, Nuofu Township 糯福乡, Lancang County, China〔''Lahuyu Jianzhi'' 拉祜语简志 (1986)〕〔http://www.ynszxc.gov.cn/villagePage/vIndex.aspx?departmentid=111373〕 * Lahu Nyi (Red Lahu, Southern Lahu, Musseh Daeng, Luhishi, Luhushi), Shehleh * Lahu Shehleh Phạm Huy (2013:13) lists the following 3 branches. * La Hủ Phu (White Lahu): only found in Lüchun County, Yunnan, China * La Hủ Năk (Black Lahu) * La Hủ Nê Thu Traditionally Lahu folk taxonomy splits the Lahu people into the two groups of Black Lahu and Yellow Lahu; Red Lahu and White Lahu are new dialect clusters originating in messianic movements within the past few centuries. Black Lahu is the standard dialect in China,〔 as well as the lingua franca among different groups of Lahu in Thailand.〔 However, it is intelligible to speakers of Yellow Lahu only with some difficulty.〔 Based on the numbers of shared lexical items, Bradley (1979) classifies the Lahu dialects as follows: ;Common Lahu *Black Lahu * *Shehleh * *(Core) * * *Black Lahu proper * * *Red Lahu *Yellow Lahu * *Bakeo * *Banlan Lama (2012) gives the following tentative classification for what he calls ''Lahoid''. ;Lahoid *Lahu-Xi (Yellow Lahu) *(Black Lahu cluster) * *Lahu-Na (Black Lahu) * *Lahu-Ni (Red Lahu) * *Lahu-Pu (White Lahu) * *Lahu-Shehleh Lama (2012) lists the following sound changes from Proto-Loloish as Lahu innovations. * *s-l- > x- * *z- > ʣ- * *ŋ- > x- 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lahu language」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
