Pyen (Hpyin, Phen; pronounced as /pʰɛn/) is a Loloish language of Myanmar. It is spoken by about 700 people in two villages near Mong Yang, Shan State, Burma, just to the north of Kengtung.[1]
Pyen borrows more from Lahu and Shan, while Bisu borrows more from Northern Thai and Standard Thai. Pyen and Bisu are both mutually intelligible, since the two form a dialect chain along with Laomian and Laopin of China, and some Phunoi varieties of Laos (Person 2007). Pyen shares 36% lexical similarity with Hani, 32% with Lahu, and 31% with Lisu.[2]
