Kʼchò (IPA: /ʔkʰɣɔ̀:/), or Mün, is a Kuki-Chin language of Myanmar. After a survey conducted in 2005 in Southern Chin State, Mang estimated the K’chò Region to be Mindat Township /mìndàt/, Kanpetlet Township /kanpètlèt/ and one village in Matupi /màtupi/ or /bàtǔ/. A written script for Kʼchò was created in 1929 by Rev. Dr. Herbert Cope, U Aung Dwe, and U Mang Kin.
