Meetei-lon (মৈতৈলোন্), also Meetei-lol (মৈতৈলোল্) and Manipuri (মনিপুরি) (and sometimes, the 19th century British term, Meithei,
which is the name of the people, not of the language), is the predominant language and lingua franca in the southeastern Himalayan
state of Manipur, in northeastern India. It is the official language in government offices. Meetei-lon is also spoken in the
Indian states of Assam and Tripura, and in Bangladesh and Burma (now Myanmar). Meetei is a Tibeto-Burman language whose exact
classification remains unclear, though it shows lexical resemblances to Kuki and Tangkhul Naga. Meetei-lon has proven to be
a large integrating factor among all ethnic groups in Manipur who use it to communicate among themselves. Meetei-lon has been
recognized, as Manipuri, by the Indian Union and has been included in the list of scheduled languages (included in the 8th
schedule by the 71st amendment of the constitution in 1992). Meetei-lon is taught as a subject up to the post-graduate level
(Ph.D. ) in universities of India, apart from being a medium of instruction up to the undergraduate level in Manipur. |
