Chrau (also known as Jro, Ro, Tamun, Charuo, Choro, Chíoro) is a Bahnaric Language that many consider to have some history dating back to the Mon-Khmer branch, which is a part of the Austroasiatic Language family.

There are approximately less than 20,000 people that are native speakers of Chrau. Most people who speak Chrau are from the Southern parts of Vietnam such as Bien Hoa and Binh Tuy. Most of the this research has been conducted by David Thomas.

The language of Chrau has a lot of Chinese influence which is why it can be seen as similar to many other languages. In the later years after they began to sell crops to others in the area, the influence of Vietnamese would begin to appear in their language. Similarly to the Chinese and Vietnamese language, there are also certain tones in the Chrau language that are emphasized when speaking.
