The Hmaric languages (Hmar ṭawnghai) or Hmar languages[1] are a subbranch of the Kukish-Mizo branch of the Sino-Tibetan language family which comprises Hmar proper (Khawsak Țawng/Trawng) Țhiek/Thriek, Saihriem (Faihriem), Leiri, Dulien/Duhlian(a sub-clan of Faihriem) and others.[2] The Hmar languages are often treated as dialects of a single language, since differences between them are reportedly minor.[3] The speakers of the language are also known as Hmar.
