Hainanese people

The people of Hainan (Chinese: 海南人), known as Hainanese and Hainan people, usually refers to people who originate from Hainan, the southernmost and smallest Chinese province. The term "Hainanese" was frequently used by Hainanese-speaking Han , who are the majority in the island, to identify themselves overseas. Nevertheless, other natives of the island such as Hlai , Yao ( "Miao people") and Utsuls also use the term.
