The Pumi language (also known as Prinmi) is a Tibeto-Burman language used by the Pumi people, an ethnic group from Yunnan,
China. Most native speakers live in Lanping, Ninglang, Lijiang, Weixi and Muli. There are two branches of Pumi (southern and
northern), and they are not mutually intelligible. In some areas Pumi used the Tibetan script, mainly for religious purposes,
although gradually it fell into disuse. A pinyin-based Roman script has been proposed, but is not commonly used. The autonym
of the Pumi is phʐə̃55 mi55, with variants phʐõ55 mə53 and tʂhə̃55 mi53 (Pumiyu Fangyan Yanjiu 2001). |
