Zahkring (also Eastern Mishmi, Zaiwa, or Meyor) is a small Sino-Tibetan language of Arunachal Pradesh in India. Zakhring has been classified as a Midzuish language.〔George van Driem (2001) ''Languages of the Himalayas: An Ethnolinguistic Handbook of the Greater Himalayan Region.'' Brill.〕 However, it appears that Midzu may not be Sino-Tibetan, whereas Zakhring clearly is. Blench and Post (2011) believe that it is an East Bodish language which has been influenced by Midzu or other divergent languages of the region. A closely related language called Zha (Zhahua 扎话) is spoken in China.〔Li Daqin & Jiang Di 李大勤,江荻 2001. 扎语概况 (introduction of Zha speech ). 民族语文 ''Minority Languages of China'' 2001(6): 61-75.〕 Landi (2005:164) also notes that Zakhring has some surprising similarities to Miju. ==Distribution== Meyor communities are found in the following 15 villages of Kibthoo Circle and Walong Circle of Anjaw District, Arunachal Pradesh. They are located on both banks of the Lohit River. The total population of the villages numbered 376 as of May 2001 (Landi 2005:1). *Kibthoo Circle * *1.Kahao * *2. Mosai * *3. Danbari * *4.
