Thai: Northern, Yuan...
"The Yuan, or Myang, who number about 2 million, live in
northern Thailand.   Since this is the land of the 13th-century
Thai state of Lan Na, the Yuan are sometimes referred to as
‘Lanatai’.   Although they are culturally and linguistically closer
to the Lao than to the Thai, the Yuan are influenced by the
spreading national cultural pattern of Thailand.   Their language,
called also Northern Siamese, or Western Laotian, is related,
within the Tai group, to Hkün and Tai Lü.

The Yuan script is now used only for B_ddhist monastic
documents, and by those interested in preserving traditional
Yuan culture."--1000 Tongues, 1972   [Info only]
