yi de Sichuan / sen nosu / nuosu
Explanation:
Estas son las denominaciones habituales de este idioma en castellano. También se puede llama "yi septentrional" o "loló", aunque este último parece ser un nombre despectivo. Se trata de la lengua de prestigio del pueblo yi, que vive en partes de China, Tailandia y Vietnám. "Nuosu" es la denominación de los propios yi, pero aparece más como "nosu" en español.

"YI, SICHUAN
[III] 1,600,000 speakers (1991 EDCL), out of 6,572,173 in official nationality (1990 census). Mainly in Greater and Lesser Liangshan Mountains, southern Sichuan, southeast Xizang (Xichang). Yangshan is a cultural center. Yi in Gulin County are reported to no longer speak Yi. In northwestern Yunnan. Spoken in over 40 counties. Alternate names: NORTHERN YI, I, 'LOLO', 'NORTHERN LOLO', SEN NOSU, GNI, NYI. Dialects: NORTHERN SICHUAN YI, SOUTHERN SICHUAN YI. Classification: Sino-Tibetan, Tibeto-Burman, Lolo-Burmese, Loloish, Northern, Yi."
