Pugh (Puu bhata, ပျူ ဘာသာ , pjù bàðà ) is an extinct Tibetan-Burmese language, the kinship of which is not clear. It was distributed in the central regions of modern Myanmar in the first millennium AD. It was spoken in the kingdom of Pugh , which existed from the second century BC. e. to the 9th century e. It began to be crowded out at the end of the 9th century, when the Burmese of Nanzhao began to squeeze Pugh. Royal decrees in the Pagan Empire were written to drink until the XII century. In the next century, the Burmese language supplanted drink completely. [1]

The letter I drink was based on Brahmi , and perhaps is the ancestor of Burmese writing [2] .
Classification
Pugh is a Tibeto-Burmese language , presumably related to Myanmar [3] . Matisoff classifies him as Lolo-Burmese, Bradley associates him with Sak . Van Dryem believes that drink belongs to a separate branch of the Tibetan-Burmese languages [4] .
Together with I drink in the kingdom of the same name, Sanskrit and Pali were used at the court. The Chinese annals mention 35 musicians who played for drink diplomats in 800–802 and spoke Sanskrit [5] .
