Kucong (Khucong, Cosung), or Lahlu, is a Loloish language of Yunnan, China and Vietnam, primarily spoken by the Kucong people. In Vietnam, the speakers' autonym is kʰu33tsʰɔ33, and are also known as the La Hủ Na 'Black Lahu'.[2] The language is very closely related to Lahu.
The Kucong, or Black Lahu, live adjacently to the La Hủ Sủ (Yellow Lahu) and La Hủ Phung (White Lahu). The Yellow Lahu are distributed in the following locations.
Pa Vệ Sủ Commune
Pa Ủ Commune
Ca Lăng Commune (in Là Pé, Nhu Tè, and Hóm Bô)
The White Lahu live in the following locations, often together with the Yellow Lahu.
Pa Ủ Commune (in Xà Hồ, Ử Ma, Pha Bu, Pa Ử, and Khồ Ma)
Ca Lăng Commune (in Hà Xe)
The Kucong and related Lahu groups had originally come from the Jinping County area of southern Yunnan, China.[2]
