The team.

Our goal is to create a learning path for everyone to learn the Pahawh Hmong.

What is the Pahawh Hmong?

The Pahawh Hmong (zbkH qbJ wKH) is a semi-syllabic script, created by Shong Lue Yang in 1959, to write the Hmong language. The script was developed through four stages, with the third stage being promoted as the stardard.

This script can write both the Green Hmong (Moob Leeg) and White Hmong (Hmoob Dawb) dialect.

The word Pahawh is equilalent to the English term "alphabet."

In 2014, the Pahawh Hmong was added to the Unicode Standard as of version 7. So far there is no font that is unicode-compliant.








Where do I start?

At this time, we are not able to provide you with the appropriate resources to learn the Pahawh. You can try out the tools we have so far.

You can start using the Sound Board to listen and learn the different Pahawh sounds. Get to know the symbols with the Flash Card tool. And, if you already know the Hmong RPA, You can use the Pahawh Converter to help you see the difference.




Until we can provide more, you may find these resources useful:
