'''Tai Lue''' ([[New Tai Lue alphabet|New Tai Lü]]: {{script|Talu|ᦅᧄᦺᦑᦟᦹᧉ}}, [[Tai Tham script|Tai Tham]]: {{script|Lana|ᨣᩴᩣᨴᩱᩭᩃᩧ᩶}}, ''kam tai lue'', {{IPA-khb|kâm.tâj.lɯ̀|}}){{Efn|{{zh|c=傣仂语|p=Dǎilèyǔ}}; {{lang-my|လူးရှမ်း|luu Shan}}; {{lang-lo|ພາສາໄຕລື້}}; {{lang-th|ภาษาไทลื้อ|translit=phasa thai lue}}, {{IPA-th|pʰāː.sǎː.tʰāj.lɯ́ː|pron}}; {{lang-vi|tiếng Lự}} or {{lang|vi|tiếng Lữ}}; also spelled '''Tai Lɯ''', '''Tai Lü''', '''Thai Lue''', '''Tai Le'''}} or '''Xishuangbanna Dai''' is a [[Tai languages|Tai language]] of the [[Tai Lue people|Lu people]], spoken by about 700,000 people in [[Southeast Asia]]. This includes 280,000 people in China ([[Yunnan]]), 200,000 in Burma, 134,000 in Laos, 83,000 in [[Thailand]] and 4,960 in [[Vietnam]].<ref name="ethnologue">{{Cite web |title=Lü |url=http://www.ethnologue.com/show_language.asp?code=khb |website=Ethnologue |language=en}}</ref> The language is similar to other [[Tai languages]] and is closely related to Kham Mueang or Tai Yuan, which is also known as [[Northern Thai language]]. In Yunnan, it is spoken in all of [[Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture]], as well as [[Jiangcheng Hani and Yi Autonomous County]] in [[Pu'er City]].

In Vietnam, Tai Lue speakers are officially recognised as the [[Tai Lue people|Lự]] ethnic minority, although in China they are classified as part of the [[Dai people]], along with speakers of the other [[Tai languages]] apart from [[Zhuang languages|Zhuang]].

== Phonology ==
Tai Lue has 21 syllable-initial consonants, 9 syllable-finals and six tones (three different tones in checked syllables, six in open syllables).

For example, {{IPA|/t͡síŋ/}} "hard" and {{IPA|/si᷄p/}} "ten" are pronounced as {{IPA|[t͡ɕiŋ˥]}} and {{IPA|[ɕip˧˥]}} respectively. (Some textbooks denote {{IPA|t͡s}} as {{IPA|c}}).

=== Tones ===

==== Contrastive tones in unchecked syllables ====
The table below presents six phonemic tones in unchecked syllables, i.e. closed syllables ending in [[Sonorant|sonorant sounds]] such as {{IPA|[m], [n], [ŋ], [w]}}, and {{IPA|[j]}} and open syllables.
There are six tones for unchecked syllables, although only three are allowed in checked syllables (those ending with -p, -t or -k).

==Vocabulary==
As in Thai and Lao, Tai Lue has borrowed many [[Sanskrit]] and [[Pali]] words and [[affixes]]. Among the Tai languages in general, Tai Lue has limited intelligibility with [[Shan language|Shan]] and [[Tai Nüa language|Tai Nua]] and shares much vocabulary with, the other [[Southwestern Tai languages]]. Tai Lue has 95% [[lexical similarity]] with [[Northern Thai language|Northern Thai]] (Lanna), 86% with Central Thai, 93% with Shan, and 95% with [[Khün language|Khun]].<ref name=e18/>

Below, some Thai Lue words are given with standard Central Thai equivalents for comparison. Thai words are shown on the left and Tai Lue words, written in [[New Tai Lue script]], are shown on the right.

===Different words===
Many words differ from Thai greatly:
*ยี่สิบ → ᨪᩣ᩠ᩅ ({{IPA|/jîː sìp/ → /sâːw/}}, twenty; cf. Lao: /sáːw/, Northern Thai: /sāw/)
*พูด → ᩋᩪᩢ ({{IPA|/pʰûːt/ → /ʔu᷅ː/}}, to speak; cf. Northern Thai: /ʔu᷇ː/)
*พี่ชาย → ᩋᩢᩣ᩠ᨿ ({{IPA|/pʰîː t͡ɕʰaːj/ → /ʔa᷅ːj/}}, older brother; cf. Lao: /ʔâːj/, Northern Thai: /ʔa᷇ːj/)

===Similar words===
Some words differ in tone only:
*หนึ่ง → ᨶ᩠ᨦᩧ᩵ ({{IPA|/nɯŋ/}}, one)
*หก → ᩉᩫ᩠ᨠ ({{IPA|/hók/}}, six)
*เจ็ด → ᩮᨧ᩠ᨯ ({{IPA|/t͡ɕét/}}, seven)
*สิบ → ᩈᩥ᩠ᨷ ({{IPA|/síp/}}, ten)
*กิน → ᨠᩥ᩠ᨶ ({{IPA|/kín/}}, to eat)

Some words differ in a single sound and associated tone. In many words, the initial ร ({{IPA|/r/}}) in Thai is ฮ ({{IPA|/h/}}) in Tai Lue, as is also the case in Lao and Tai Yuan:
*ร้อน → ᩁᩢᩬᩁ ({{IPA|/rɔ́n/ → /hɔ̀n/}}, hot; cf. Lao: /hɔ̂n/, Northern Thai: /hɔ́ːn/)
*รัก → ᩁᩢ᩠ᨠ ({{IPA|/rák/ → /hak/}}, to love; cf. Lao: /hāk/, Northern Thai: /ha᷇k/)
*รู้ → ᩁᩪᩢ ({{IPA|/rúː/ → /hùː/}}, to know; cf. Lao: /hûː/, Northern Thai: /húː/)

[[Aspirated consonant]]s in the low-class consonant group(อักษรต่ำ {{IPA|/ʔàk sɔ̌n tàm/}}) become unaspirated:
*เชียงราย → ᨩ᩠ᨿᨦᩁᩣ᩠ᨿ ({{IPA|/t͡ɕʰiaŋ raːj/ → /t͡ɕêŋ hâːj/}}, [[Chiang Rai|Chiang Rai city]] and [[Chiang Rai Province|province]])
*คิด → ᨣᩧ᩠ᨯ ({{IPA|/kʰít/ → /kɯt/}}, to think; cf. Northern Thai: /kɯ́t/)
*พ่อ → ᨻᩳ᩵ ({{IPA|/pʰɔ̂/ → /pɔ/}}, father; cf. Northern Thai: /pɔ̂ː/)
*ทาง → ᨴᩤ᩠ᨦ ({{IPA|/tʰaːŋ/ → /tâːŋ/}}, way; cf. Northern Thai: /tāːŋ/)

(Note that the vowels also differ greatly between Tai Lue and Thai in many words, even though they are etymologically related and share the same root.)

Though many aspirated consonants often become unaspirated, when an unaspirated consonant is followed by ร ({{IPA|/r/}}) the unaspirated consonant becomes aspirated:
*ประเทศ → ᨷᩕᨴᩮ᩠ᩆ ({{IPA|/praʔtʰêːt/ → /pʰaʔtêːt/}}, country; cf. Northern Thai /pʰa.têːt/)

Other differences:
*ให้ → ᩉᩨᩢ ({{IPA|/hâj/ → /hɯ᷅/}}, to give, let)

== Writing systems ==
Tai Lue is written in three different scripts. One is the [[Fak Kham script]], a variety of the Thai script of [[Sukhothai Kingdom|Sukhothai]]. The second is the Tham script, which was reformed in the 1950s, but is still in use and has recently regained government support. The new script is a simplified version of the old script.

=== Fak Kham ===
An ancient script, also used in [[Kengtung]], [[Northern Thailand]] and Northern Laos centuries ago.

=== Tham ===
The [[Tai Tham script|Tham script]] is called [[:zh:老傣文|老傣文]] ''lao dai wen'' (Old Dai script) in Chinese. Readable by the most people in Burma, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam.

=== New Tai Lue ===
[[File:China Post logo with (New) Tai Lü script in Mohan, Yunnan.jpg|thumb|China Post logo with the New Tai Lue script in Mohan, Yunnan]]
[[New Tai Lue script|New Tai Lue]] is a modernization of the Lanna alphabet (also known as the [[Tai Tham script]]), which is similar to the [[Thai alphabet]], and consists of 42 initial consonant signs (21 high-tone class, 21 low-tone class), seven final consonant signs, 16 vowel signs, two tone letters and one vowel shortening letter (or syllable-final glottal stop). Vowels signs can be placed before or after the syllable initial consonant.

Similar to the Thai alphabet, the pronunciation of the tone of a syllable depends on the class the initial consonant belongs to, syllable structure and [[vowel length]], and the tone mark.

==Related varieties==
The Bajia people ([[:zh:八甲人|八甲人]]), who number 1,106 individuals in Mengkang Village ({{lang|zh|勐康村}}), Meng'a Town ({{lang|zh-hans|勐阿镇}}), [[Menghai County]], Yunnan, speak a language closely related to Tai Lue.{{Citation needed|date=December 2020}} There are 225 Bajia people living in Jingbo Township 景播乡, [[Menghai County]] (You 2013:270).<ref name="You2013">{{Cite book |last=You |first=Weiqiong 尤伟琼 |title=Yúnnán mínzú shìbié yánjiū |date=2013 |publisher=Minzu chubanshe |isbn=978-7-105-12703-0 |location=Beijing |language=zh |script-title=zh:云南民族识别研究 |trans-title=Classifying Ethnic Groups of Yunnan}}</ref> The Bajia are also known as the Chinese Dai [[:zh:傣那|汉傣]].
