The Lahu are a hill-dwelling Tibeto-Burman people whose language reflects the influence of Thai and Chinese, yet retains a unique beauty and expressive power of its own. The Dictionary of Lahu is one of the most exhaustive and sophisticated dictionaries yet produced for a Southeast Asian language. Together with the author's The Grammar of Lahu (UCPL vol. 75, 1973/1982), it places Lahu among the best documented minority languages of the world.
