Maring and Uipo (exonym: Khoibu) are closely related Sino-Tibetan languages spoken by the Maring and Khoibu people in Manipur, India. Linguistically, they are closest to the Tangkhulic languages.
Maring is spoken in Laiching in the southeast of Chandel district, Manipur and the northern border mountainous region of Tengnoupal subdivision of that district (Ethnologue). Uipo, also known by the exonym Khoibu,[2] is spoken in Khoibu, Narum, Saibol, and Yangkhul villages of Chandel District (Ethnologue).
In 2020, Uipo language activist Mr. Mosyel Syelsaangthyel Khaling became the first Indian citizen to receive the Excellence in Community Linguistics Award of the Linguistic Society of America.[3]
