Zhuang people
|tha=จ้วง|rtgs=Chuang}}
The Zhuang people (; (チワン語:''Bouxcuengh'')) are an ethnic group who mostly live in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in southern China. Some also live in the Yunnan, Guangdong, Guizhou and Hunan provinces. They form one of the 56 ethnic groups officially recognized by the People's Republic of China. With the Buyi, Tay–Nùng, and other northern Tai speakers, they are sometimes known as the Rau or Rao. Their population, estimated at 18 million people, makes them the largest minority in China.
==Chinese character names==
The Chinese character used for the Zhuang people has changed several times. Their autonym, "Cuengh" in Standard Zhuang, was originally written with the graphic pejorative ''Zhuàng'' (or ''tóng'', meaning "a variety of wild dog"〔漢典. "(獞 )". Chinese. Accessed 14 Aug 2011. 新华字典, via 中华昌龙网. 字典频道. "(獞 )". Chinese. Accessed 14 Aug 2011.〕). Chinese characters typically combine a semantic element or radical and a phonetic element. John DeFrancis calls ''Zhuàng'' , with the "dog radical" and a ''tóng'' phonetic, an ethnic slur and describes how the People's Republic of China removed it.〔Defrancis, John (1984). ''The Chinese Language: Fact and Fantasy'', p. 117. University of Hawaii Press. ISBN 978-0-8248-0866-2.〕 In 1949, after the Chinese civil war, the logograph was officially replaced with ''Zhuàng'' (or ''tóng'' "child; boy servant"), with the "human radical" and the same phonetic. Later, during the standardization of simplified Chinese characters, ''Zhuàng'' was changed to a completely different character ''Zhuàng'' (meaning "strong; robust").
