Zou or Zokam (literally "of the hills"), or Zo, Zomi, Yo, Yaw, or Jo, is a Northern Kuki-Chin language originating in northwestern Burma and spoken also in Manipur in northeastern India, where the name is spelled Zo.
The name Zou is sometimes used as a cover term for the languages of all Kukish and Chin peoples, especially the Zo people.
The term 'Zo' has been employed in many books to denote the word 'Zou', for simple reason of phonetic usage.
The Zou themselves employ the various terms Zo, Zou, and Zomi to mean their tribe.
