Thado...
"Thado, or Thado-Kuki, is spoken by about 100,000 people in
scattered groups throughout Manipur, India.   Thado was once
promoted as a regional lingua franca for many of the hills tribes.
Also known as Khongsai, Thado is spoken in many dialects,
including Hawkip.   A Kuki-Chin language of the Tibeto-
Burman family, it is the largest of the New Kuki tongues, a
subgroup which also comprises Gangte, Paite, Simte, Vaiphei,
and Zomi.   Thado is also closely related to the Tiddim Chin
language."
