Tai Hongjin () is a Tai language of southern China. Dialects may not be mutually intelligible. Speakers of Tai Hongjin live in the Red River (红河 or 元江) and Jinsha River (金沙江) watershed regions of south-central Yunnan. Most are Buddhists, but few are Theravada. ==Dialects== Tai Hongjin can be split into five dialects, which are often mutually unintelligible (Zhou 2001:14). *Yuánxīn 元新: Honghe County 红河县, Yuanyang County 元阳县 of ''Honghe Hani and Yi Autonomous Prefecture 红河州''; Xinping Yi and Dai Autonomous County 新平彝族傣族自治县 of ''Yuxi City 玉溪市''. *Yǒngwǔ 永武: Yongren County 永仁县, Wuding County 武定县, Lufeng County 禄丰县, Dayao County 大姚县 — all in ''Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Prefecture 楚雄彝族自治州''. *Mǎguān 马关: Maguan County of ''Wenshan Prefecture''. *Yuánjiāng 元江: Honghe County 红河县, Yuanyang County 元阳县 of ''Honghe Prefecture 红河州''; Yuanjiang County 元江县 of ''Yuxi City 玉溪市''. *Lǜshí 绿石: Lüchun County 绿春县, Shiping County 石屏县, Jianshui County 建水县 — all in ''Honghe Prefecture 红河州''. This dialect has more open rimes and nasal finals. The total number of Tai Hongjin speakers combined is 136,000 (Zhou 2001:14). A related but separate Tai language called Dǎi Jīnpíng (金平傣语) is spoken in Jinping County 金平县, Honghe Prefecture 红河州, which Zhou (2001) reports as having 15,400 speakers.〔The Dai Jinping data point studied in Zhou (2001) is that of Xinmeng village 新勐村, Mengla township 勐拉乡, Jinping County 金平县.〕 This language has its own traditional script as well (see Zhou 2001:379). 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「Tai Hongjin language」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
