Read and Write Green Hmong: Errthang

So I want you all to know right this second that I am not good at speaking Green Hmong fluently! It is hard for me because I am so used to White Hmong. I have to think and make the switches with patterns in my head before I speak! It's a toughy! I never spent too much time learning it because I mostly spoke with White Hmong people, but making this video definitely makes me want to practice it m...

Here are the tones! Tones are the most important part if you ask me. If you are learning for the first time, make sure to spend the most time on the tones!! Let me know if you have any questions, again.

Here are the other consonants not covered in the basic consonants video. Let me know if you have any suggestions. I noticed one thing as I was reviewing the video. Hnyiav doesn't mean to burn... haha... I got mixed up and I caught it. kub hnyiab means to burn sorries!

Here are the basic consonants. Let me know if I didn't explain one of them very well. I'll try to help you out as best as I can. Lol, not an english "y" on "f." Sorry about the mix ups. Didn't even notice I said said english "y" at that part. My bad.

This video is to help those who want to learn how to read and write Hmong. I know there are tons of videos out there that teach you how, but some have different teaching styles, some charge money, and some aren't clean. Hopefully This helps people out who wish to learn how to read and write. I think it's important to know how to read and write Hmong to keep the Hmong language and culture living...

I'm still trying to figure out how to do this. I don't even know why I am making these videos. I just wanted to one day.

Not "daim choj," it's "dlaim choj" other than that your Green dialect is killer.
Ua tsaug
Love this video so much. Your Leng Mong is really good. Some pointers are that we Moob Leeg don't call ourselves Moob Ntsuab. Moob Ntsuab only live in China. There's a lot of history as to why but it's a lot and hopefully you already know. The Moob Leeg that say txwv are the Moob Sib who are a divergent dialect group from the Moob leeg. They live everywhere but mainly in old xeev Moos Pheeb and Xaam Neua. The black Moob leeg from Yen Bai Vietnam are also Moob Sib. There's also another divergent group from the Moob Leeg called the Moob Sua (some people call them Moob Dlub but they don't call themselves that). This group is even farther diverged from the Moob Leeg but the dialect is similar.
I need a white friend that speaks hmong
Collin, great job. To help you understand a little more about moob leeg. The differences that you see in the moob leeg dialect like the word "txiv or txwv" that you see. All this is base on which regions in Laos that group of moob leeg are from.
That accent is perfect.. damm
Love how you drew that tone chart. Being visual learning dominate, that chart helps a ton.
Wow Tou, you speaking is stunning and amazing!! Thks for sharing!!
Hai tau zoo hee li os
Yo Collin. Been diving into all my hmong heritage on a CZcams binge. I’m curious after being really hip to the modern hmong music but do can you sing or rap in hmong? I bet you could be a dope American hmong artist.
Your Hmong language is so good! Chinese Hmong support you!
Well done. Thank you for sharing your story. :)
I ACCEPT THEM AS A HMONG
To my understanding "moos" is also a borrowedword which means hour in thai/loatian used in conjuction with "khwwb" is the english equavalence of "o'clock". [example- yim moos khwwb > eight oclock]. the last time i ever heard that compound word being thrown around in a conversation was when i was still living in thailand. this video is very concise yet thorough. you did an amazing job both at speaking and understanding the language. i am a native hmong speaker fluint in both green and white dialect (24 years of experience) you got my seal of approval 😁👏 🍾
Collin, this is very helpful. I am starting to learn green hmong! Keep it up!
Glad it helps! Wish I could say I'm currently as good as I was in this video haha. How's the nurse life treating you? That's what you were studying right?
Tag nrho cov meskas dawb uas kuv tau pom lawm es hais lus Hmoob zoo tshaj ces yog koj thiab aib Lis Foom xwb. Muaj coob tus txawj hais thiab, tabsis lawv hais tau muaj ntsis txhav.
Aib no keej hais lus Hmoob thiab keej sau ntawv Hmoob heev. Nej cov uas sau ntawv Hmoob yuam yuam kev yuav tsum be careful sau ntawv Hmoob tsam ib me ntsis txaj muag rau Collin nawb. Peb cov Hmoob tag nrho raws li kuv tau pom pom yav tag los mas cov coob tsis tau kawm ntawv Hmoob formally es sau ntawv Hmoob yuam yuam kev heev. Cov coob mas sij nruab cov cim tsis tshuam raug. Tus tub meskas dawb no keej sau peb cov ntawv tshaj peb lawm. Thov qhua koj os Collin.
Most of these US born Hmong kids needs you to translate now shame on our Hmong kids who can’t even speak their own language
A Wausau boy! Yay! Very proud of your accomplishments. But your Hmong is perfect! Keep it up & don't lose it...like me-ish.
Wow you speak Hmong very well
Your Hmong is very good.
“I’m just doing it” 👍🏻

You are awesome regardless of the minor mistake. These days most young Hmong themselves don't even come close to you. Keep making videos, I am sure Hmong people would love to watch! Great job!
Wow😭 you're more fluent and better at Hmong than I am but I'm Hmong and I can barely say my own language 😂

Thanks, this video helped a lot. I was surprised by the words changes from white hmong to green hmong. I'm Green Hmong. But I know more White hmong than green. You should do more videos on green hmong.
I have to agreed your Hmong is better than mines. Hehe too cute
Sadly the truth ...
Brother you speaking Hmong really well
Awesome...just awesome!
Awesome...just awesome!

White Hmong language is easy to learn as you peel banana. Green Mong language is hard to learn as you peel coconut. My mom is White Hmong and my dad is Green Mong. My mom and I sometime have hard time to understand my dad. I sometime making joke to my mom about tug tsuv call tus tsov, txuj nyuv call txoj nyov, tug puj call tus poj, lub ntuj call lub ntoj. My dad told me that "ntlajteb" means "universe" and "nplajteb" means "earth."
