She (Ho-Ne) has long been recognized as a divergent language. It has been difficult to classify because of its numerous Chinese loanwords. Recently, it has been concluded that a few other Miao languages may be closer to She than to the rest of the family.

Taguchi (2012),[2] in a computational phylogenetic study, found Ho Ne (She), Kiong Nai and Pana (Pa Na) to form a branch of the Miao (Hmongic) family, with She closest to Pa Na. Hsiu (2015, 2018),[3][4] also in a computational phylogenetic study, found She to be closest to Kiong Nai, and added Younuo as a fourth language.
Yuno has also been classified as Bahengic.

gollark: Wait, this is a *laptop*? Hm.
gollark: Wait, 530? That's surprisingly recent, I think.
gollark: What CPU and RAM?
gollark: How powerful's your server, anyway?
