FamilySino-Tibetan (Sinitic, Hui — 祁婺片) Speakers~150,000-200,000 (estimate for Wuyuan county) ScriptLatin CountriesChina (Jiangxi — Wuyuan 婺源) Official inNo (regional variety; speakers code: czh_wy proposed but not yet officially adopted in langmap)

RESEARCH STATUS: Cannot provide complete czh_wy data set. REASON: (1) Langmap currently contains only general czh (Hui Chinese) entries, primarily documented for Tunxi/Jixi varieties per wordmap_reviews/review_93_closed.md. (2) No dedicated czh_wy subdialect code or data exists in /home/jounlai/langmap. (3) Wuyuan (婺源, Jiangxi province) is identified in wordmap_meta.js as a key Hui-speaking center alongside Tunxi and Yixian, but lacks separate phonological documentation. (4) [Provisional - limited documentation; pending native-speaker verification.]
