Andrew Hsiu (2015)[2] proposes the following tentative classification scheme for the Angkuic languages.

Hsiu (2015) suggests that the Angkuic languages originated in the Mekong River valley in the Sipsongpanna area, and subsequently dispersed upstream into western and central Yunnan.

Hsiu (2015)[2] lists the following lexical innovations in each Angkuic branch. Proto-Palaungic reconstructions are from Sidwell (2015).
