I think Tai shouldn't really redirect here. Tai refers to the Tai peoples (speakers of Tai languages) which we should have something on. I'll write it some day. Markalexander100 05:51, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC)
I agree with above. "Tai" should have a disambiguation page pointing to "Tai Languages" and "Tai People" and "Tai history" as well. I have already set up a history category. I'llbe writing a general page onTai history next week with citations. There is already alot out there on general Tai history n the Lao history pages, but the facts are not backed up with citations (Jonfernquest 15:54, 7 August 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Language names?
Where does this classification and the language names come from? Does it make sense to include so many links that lead nowhere? I don't know much about the Tai languages spoken in other countries, but for those spoken in China according to this article, I can say that the terminology is - well, at least very unusual; neither used in China nor by scholars abroad that I am aware of.

[edit] Malayalam
Malayalam is a Dravidian language. What is the change by 216.93.228.6 supposed to mean? Babelfisch; February 1st, 2005
[edit] Thai languages
Thai language should be the most suitable because it also refers to a variety of languages that are used in Thailand. iampad
- No. Thai languages refers to languages spoken in Thailand (we should have an article on that, but it should be at Languages of Thailand. Tai languages refers to a linguistic group. HenryFlower 06:07, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Vietnam
The San Chay people of Vietnam seem to be missing from this article, for some reason. Badagnani 19:47, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
