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]

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]
