Lolopo (autonyms: lɔ21 lo33 pʰɔ21, lo31 lo31 pʰo31; Chinese: 彝语中部方言; Central Yi) is a Loloish language spoken by half a million Yi people of China.
It is one of the six Yi languages recognized by the government of China.
In Laos, Lolo is spoken in three villages of Phongsaly Province, where the language is usually referred to as Lolopho.
[2] Yang (2011) proposes this tentative internal classification of Lolo.
The Chuxiong Prefecture Ethnic Gazetteer (2013:364)[6] lists the following cognacy percentages between Lolopo 罗罗濮 and other Yi languages in Chuxiong Prefecture.
