Endangered Sino-Tibetan language spoken in China
Not to be confused with Samatu language.
The Samu (autonym: sa33 mu33; Chinese: 撒慕) language, or Samatao (sa33 ma21 taw21; Chinese 撒马多 Samaduo), also known as Eastern Samadu, is a Loloish language spoken by older adults in Zijun Village 子君村 (also called Da'er), Yiliu Township 矣六乡, Guandu District 官渡区, Kunming, China.[3] Although there was an ethnic population of 2,465 in 1999, there are no fluent speakers under 50 years of age.[4]
