| Research Abstract |
The aim of this study is to reveal languages of unreported branches of the Wa people in Menglian county of Yunnan province, China. We conducted some field surveys on the Wa people living in (or originated from) Menglian county. The result of these surveys, we collected primary linguistic data and socio-linguistic information about Vo and Luvia groups. Based on these data, we reported the phonological system of the Vo dialect with basic vocabularies on the Journal of Burma Studies. We also contributed the paper about the Wa orthography used in China to the Journal of Hokkaido Ethnological Society.
