Language and Culture Linguistics and Language Studies China's Ethnic Minorities and Relations

Abstract

The Namuyi live in southern Sichuan Province, the People's Republic of China, and form part of the officially recognized Tibetan ethnic group. This paper first introduces the Namuyi in terms of location, population, and ethnonym. It then provides brief background on the Namuyi language, including a comparison of the dze 11 qu 11 and Luoguodǐ varieties and a 207-item Swadesh list of English words with their dze 11 qu 11 Namuyi equivalents. Finally, it discusses Namuyi religion and provides a transcription of the ka 11 ju 11 bu 44 ritual.
