They are the only Negrito group in Thailand and speak Maniq (also called Tonga, Kensiu or Mos), a Mon\u2013Khmer language in the Aslian language group. It is thought they once spoke a language similar to the Andamanese language but then adopted the language of the Mon\u2013Khmer people around them.The Maniq are a hunting and gathering society. They build temporary huts of bamboo with roofs made of banana leaves."@en .
