Mon...
"Mon is spoken by about 300,000 people (1931
figure) in northern
Tenasserim, Burma, around the Gulf of
Martaban, and in the
lrrawaddy River Delta. There are also 50,000 or more Mon
speakers in adjacent Thailand.
Also known as Mun, or Talaing,
the Mons of Burma are generally bilingual in Mon and Burmese.
Three regional Mon dialects are noted: Maulmain (Central),
Pegu (Northern), and Ye (Southern). Mon is classified
with
Cambodian in the Mon-Khmer linguistic group."--1000
