The term "Tai–Kadai" is becoming outdated as "Kra–Dai" is increasingly used instead by modern scholars. I propose that the canonical name for the family be changed to Kra-Dai. The Wikipedia article Tai–Kadai languages was moved to Kra–Dai languages months ago for this reason; see the discussion there for the reasoning behind the change. (That discussion omits the detail that the name "Kadai" originally referred specifically to the Kra languages. Thus, "Kra–Dai" is functionally equivalent, but less problematic and more up-to-date.) — Jaspet 06:55, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

- Renamed. I think I fixed all the "terms derived from" categories, and all the pages that turned up when I searched for pages that had "Tai-Kadai" in the title, in any namespace. I also renamed the proto-language. Someone may want to create [[Kra-Dai]] / update Tai-Kadai. - -sche (discuss) 02:27, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
