The She language (Mandarin: 畲語, Shēyǔ), autonym Ho Le or Ho Ne, /hɔ22 ne53/ or Ho Nte, is a critically endangered Hmong–Mien language spoken by the She people. Most of the over 709,000 She people today speak She Chinese (possibly a variety of Hakka Chinese). Those who speak Sheyu—approximately 1,200 individuals in Guangdong Province—call themselves Ho Ne, "mountain people" (活聶; huóniè).

She language in the context of Jiongnai language
Kiong Nai (or Jiongnai, Chinese: 炯奈语; pinyin: Jiǒngnàiyǔ) is a divergent Hmongic (Miao) language spoken in Jinxiu County, Guangxi, China. The speakers' autonym is pronounced [kjɔŋ33 nai33] or [kjaŋ31 nɛ31]; kjɔŋ33 means 'mountain', while nai33 means 'people'. Mao & Li (2002) believe it to be most closely related to She.
