    Yes.

    >If so, isn't TAI NÜA the most frequently used form of this language ?

    According to the Ethnologue it is. According to
    the Chinese experts who transcribed the name
    working with me, it's Tai Le. The Le by the way
    is pronounced just like the masculine definite
    article in French. Donc « Taï Le ».
