Wuxi dialect (Simplified Chinese: 无锡话; Traditional Chinese: 無錫話; Pinyin: Sūzhōu huà) is a dialect of Wu, one of the subdivisions of Chinese spoken language. It is spoken in the city of Wuxi in Jiangsu province of China.

It has many similarities with the Shanghainese and Suzhou dialect, being comprehensible between the speakers. It is not at all mutually intelligible with Mandarin, China's official language.
