Meitei (auch Meithei oder Meiteilon) ist die vorherrschende Sprache im indischen Bundesstaat Manipur. Sie ist offizielle Amtssprache und gilt als Integrationsfaktor der verschiedenen ethnischen Gruppen der Region. Es gibt ungefähr 1,5 Millionen Muttersprachler, einige Sprecher verteilen sich dabei auch auf die umliegenden indischen Bundesstaaten, sowie Bangladesch und Myanmar.
Meitei wurde 1992 als Landessprache von Manipur anerkannt und in die Liste der registrierten Landessprachen Indiens aufgenommen. Es gehört zu den tibeto-birmanischen Sprachen und wird heute auch an indischen Universitäten gelehrt.
Bis ins 18. Jahrhundert wurde die Sprache mit eigenen Schriftzeichen in Meetei-Mayek geschrieben. Danach wurde die bengalische Schrift übernommen, die bis heute in Gebrauch ist. Es gibt jedoch Bestrebungen, die Meetei-Mayek-Schrift wiederzubeleben.
Neben Meitei gibt es in Manipur und den angrenzenden Gebieten die indoarische Sprache Bishnupriya Manipuri.
