Loloish languages
The Loloish languages, also known as Yi in China and occasionally Ngwi (Bradley 1997) or Nisoic (Lama 2012), are a family of fifty to a hundred Sino-Tibetan languages. They are most closely related to Burmese and its relatives. Both the Loloish and Burmish branches are well defined, as is their superior node, Lolo–Burmese. However, subclassification is more contentious. All Loloish languages show significant Austroasiatic influence.〔Thurgood & LaPolla, 2003, ''The Sino-Tibetan languages'', p. 9〕
==Names==
''Loloish'' is the traditional name for the family. Some publications avoid the term under the misapprehension that ''Lolo'' is pejorative. ''Lolo'' is the Chinese rendition of the autonym of the Yi people, and it is only pejorative when written with a particular Chinese character (one that uses a beast rather than human radical), a practice that was prohibited by the Chinese government in the 1950s.〔Benedict, Paul K. (1987). "(Autonyms: ought or ought not )." ''Linguistics of the Tibeto-Burman Area'' 10: 188. Italics in original.〕
David Bradley uses the name ''Ngwi'', which is also used by ''Ethnologue'', and Lama (2012) uses ''Nisoic''. Paul K. Benedict coined the term ''Yipho'', from ''Yi'' and a common autonym element (-''po'' or -''pho''), but it never gained wide usage.
