Fuómî́ is the most widely spoken Morèi language, spoken natively in the central states such as Kû́tế, Dáutâ and Wàitên, and throughout the wider region as a lingua franca. It is notable among the Morèi languages for having developed a rich tonal system.

Phonology
The following tables show the consonants, vowels and tones of Fuómî́ in the standardised Dáutâ dialect:
