Talk:Tedim language

Latest comment: 1 year ago by Yahya Abdal-Aziz in topic Tone

Nomenclature edit

I would like to suggest that the article be titled "Tedim" instead of "Sukte", since Tedim (ctd) is the main language and Sokte (which doesn't even have an ISO 639-3 code) is considered a dialect of Tedim both by Glottolog and by Ethnologue, which both summarize the classification of the Kuki-Chin languages. Informally, no speaker of Tedim that I personally know would call the language "Sukte", they prefer the term tedim pau, and would use kamhau or sokte to refer to those who speak the specific dialects. Just a thought, and would love to hear feedback on this. --FKLinguista (talk) 23:48, 14 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Zomi edit

Is Zomi the same language as Tedim? There are seperate wikipedia pages but I've been told by coworkers with Burmese migrants that Tedim is another term for Zomi.

Example: ...My mpother tongue is Zomi language, also known as Tedim. I studied in two American graduate schools... [1]

Tone edit

is just a heading, even though § Phonology shows it as an obligatory component of the syllable. Can anyone provide more info, please? yoyo (talk) 02:47, 24 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
