Interesting
The Hmu people, also known as Black Miao, are the largest of the Miao ethnic groups in Guizhou. Their language, which has undergone significant changes, prompted a new translation of the New Testament. The original Hmu New Testament was completed in 1934 by the China Inland Mission, and the latest editions utilize the Romanized script introduced by the Chinese Government in 1956, reflecting the dynamic nature of language and its impact on cultural identity.
