Kuamasi language

Kuamasi (kʰua33 ma33 sɨ55; Chinese: 跨玛斯话; Songping Yi 松坪彝) is a recently discovered Loloish language of Heqing County, Yunnan, China. They are known by the Kua-nsi as kʰua33 ma33 sɨ55. The Kuamasi are found in Matang 麻塘, Songping Village 松坪村, Liuhe Township 六合乡, Heqing County (Castro, et al. 2010). A Loloish language spoken in Daying Village 大营村, Songgui Town 松桂镇 is also likely closely related to Kuamasi (Castro 2010:23).
