Yongnan, also called Yongnan Zhuang, is a dialect bundle of the Tai language family spoken in southern China, sharing common features without necessarily sharing common linguistic innovations. In the classification proposed by Pittayaporn (2009), Yongnan is not a single language or a natural genealogical group but draws varieties from two separate branches of the Tai family, including Zhuang varieties spoken around Chongzuo, Shangsi, Qinzhou, Wuming, Long'an, and Fusui.
