Tày or Thô (a name shared with Cuoi and with Zuojiang Zhuang of China) is the major Tai language of Vietnam, in the northeast near the Chinese border.
Varieties

- Tày Trùng Khánh is spoken in Trùng Khánh District, northeastern Cao Bang province.
The Dai Zhuang varieties should perhaps be considered the same language.
