Sur–Myet, also known as kuSur (Nsur), Tapshin, or Myet, is a minor Plateau language of Bauchi and Plateau states, Nigeria. There are two closely related dialects, Súr and Myet.
There are about 16,000 speakers of Sur–Myet.[1] Sur speakers are surrounded by Ngas speakers, who refer to the Sur as Dishili.[3] Nevertheless, Sur is a vital language still being passed onto children, and is not immediately endangered.[4]
