Myang Zhuang is a Central Tai language spoken in Ronghua Township 荣华乡, Debao County, Guangxi, China. Myang Zhuang speakers call themselves mjaːŋ (A2 tone) and tʰoː (C1-A tone), and refer to Yang Zhuang varieties as nʊŋ instead of jaːŋ (Liao 2016:311).

Myang Zhuang is spoken only in Ronghua Township, in villages including Nalong (那陇屯 naː lʊŋ in Myang and Yang Zhuang) in Nalong Village (那陇村) and Maomei Village (tʰuː ˀdɔːŋ in Yang Zhuang) (Liao 2016:311-312).
