  abstract   = {Western Rengma (Terüpvunyu /tərYɸuɲu/) is an undocumented Angami-Pochuri language from the Tibeto-Burman language family. Preliminary fieldwork was conducted during April 2018 in Karbi Anglong district, Assam, India to document the language and understand the language attitudes of the speakers, in addition to identifying domains of language use. The dominant language in the district is colloquial Assamese, an Eastern Indo-Aryan language used as a lingua franca by Rengma speakers, blended with Nagamese, a creole from the neighbouring state of Nagaland. Western Rengma bears a resemblance to Southern Rengma, while Northern Rengma is totally distinct. Research is still required to confirm the identity of Western and Central Rengma and to understand the sociolinguistic situation of the language.},
