Chesu 车苏 is a Loloish language spoken in southern Shuangbai County, northern Xinping County, and Eshan County in Yunnan, China.
The Chesu refer to themselves as tsusu³³pa²¹[2] or tɕi²¹su⁵⁵pho²¹ (Jishupo 吉输颇).[3] Yunnan (1955) reports that Chesu is spoken mostly in Taihe Township 太和乡, with a population of over 360 as of 1955.[2]Ethnologue reports 3,300 Chesu speakers out of an ethnic population of 6,600 people, as of 2007.[1]
Bradley (2007) reports that Chesu is closely related to Nasu and classifies it as a Nasoid language. Chesu speakers consider themselves to be a separate ethnic group from the surrounding Nisu speakers. The Chesu language is currently being replaced by Nisu and Chinese.[4]
In Eshan County, Chesu is also used as a second language by Hlersu speakers.[1]
