Shö is a Kukish dialect cluster of Burma and Bangladesh. There are perhaps four distinct dialects, Asho (Khyang), Bualkhaw, Chinbon, and Shendu.

Mayin and Longpaw are not mutually intelligible, but have been subsumed under the ISO code for Chinbon because Mayin-Longpaw speakers generally understand Chinbon.Minkya is similarly included because most Minkya speakers understand Mayin.

Chinbon is spoken in the following townships of Myanmar (Ethnologue).

Asho is spoken in Ayeyarwady Region, Bago Region, and Magway Region, and Rakhine State, Myanmar.

VanBik (2009:38) lists the following Asho dialects.

Bualkhaw is spoken in Bualkhua, Phaizawl, and Khuang villages, located north of Falam town in Falam township, Chin State, Myanmar.

Shendu is spoken in Mizoram, India.

Asho dialect (K’Chò) has 28 consonants and seven vowels.

Diphthongs: əi, ai, ui, ɔi

Similar to other Kukish languages, many Asho verbs have two distinct stems. This stem alternation is a Proto-Kukish feature, which has been retained to different degrees in different Kukish languages.
