Thado (Thadou, Thaadou, Thado-Ubiphei, Thado-Pao) is a common Kukish language spoken widely in the North Eastern part of India and Burma. The Saimar dialect[3] was reported in the Indian press in 2012 to be spoken by only four people in one village in the state of Tripura.[4] The dialect spoken in Manipur exhibits partial mutual intelligibility with the other Kukish dialects of the area including Paite, Hmar, Vaiphei, Simte, Kom and Gangte languages.[5]
