''this article needs to be translated into Shan''</br>
'''ၽႃႇသႃႇတႆး''' is the native language of [[Shan people|Shan people]] and spoken mostly in Shan State, [[Burma|Myanmar]]. It is also used in pockets of Kachin State in Myanmar, in northern Thailand, and in Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, China. Shan is a member of the Tai-Kadai language family, and is related to Thai. It has five tones, which do not correspond exactly to Thai tones, plus a "sixth tone" used for emphasis.
The number of Shan speakers is not known in part because that of the Shan population is unknown. Estimates of Shan people range from four million to 30 million, though the true number is somewhere around six million, with about half speaking the Shan language.
