Description

THIS IS A THAI SCRIPT BIBLE /// The Lu Mien language is one of the main languages spoken by the Yao people in China, Laos, Vietnam, Thailand and more recently the United States / 900,000 speakers / It is very distantly related to the Hmong language, and together they form the Hmong-Mien languages family. Like Hmong as well as Vietnamese and Chinese it is tonal and monosyllabic. Linguists in China consider the dialect spoken in Changdong, Jinxiu Yao Autonomous County, Guangxi to be the standard. However most Iu Mien people in the West are refugees from Laos, so people in the west focus on their dialect In the past, lack of an alphabet has caused low rates of literacy amongst the Iu Mien speakers. It has been written with Chinese characters in China, however this is extremely difficult for Iu Mien speakers from other countries such as Laos and groups such as the Chao Clan. /// Lu Mien Bible in Thai Script / First Printing 2007 / 2,500 Copies / Beautiful Color Maps / As Pictured Black Vinyl Binding /// This is a great Christian product sourced from BIML- Bible In My Language, the leader in foreign language Bibles and outreach materials from Baltimore, Maryland in the USA.
