Tày or Tho (a name shared with Cuoi and with various Zhuang languages of China) is the major Tai language of Vietnam, in the northeast near the Chinese border.
Varieties
- Tày Bảo Lạc is spoken in Bảo Lạc District, western Cao Bang province.

The Dai Zhuang varieties should perhaps be considered the same language.
