Meo language

The Meo (or Mewoo) language is an Austroasiatic language spoken by the Meo people primarily in parts of India and Myanmar. It features a unique set of sounds and grammatical structures distinct from neighboring languages. Meo uses a combination of tones and consonant-vowel patterns to convey meaning. As a minority language, it often exists alongside dominant regional languages and may be passed orally within communities. Preservation efforts are ongoing to maintain its use amid modern influences, highlighting its cultural importance and linguistic diversity in the region.
