Austroasiatic Vietic Chut ? Arem

Arem is an endangered language spoken in a small area on either side of the Laos–Vietnam border. Its nearest relative may be the Chut language of Vietnam.

Arem lacks the breathy phonation common to most Vietic languages, but does have glottalized final consonants.
