Description

The Iu Mien language is one of the principal languages of the Yao people, with approximately 900,000 speakers spread across China, Laos, Vietnam, Thailand, and the United States. Although distantly related to the Hmong language, Iu Mien and Hmong together form the Hmong-Mien language family. Both languages are tonal and monosyllabic, which presents unique challenges for literacy and translation.

Historically, the Iu Mien language was written using Chinese characters, a practice that proved challenging for speakers from countries like Laos. The adoption of the Thai script in this Bible edition aims to address literacy issues and provide greater accessibility for Iu Mien speakers, particularly those in the West who have roots in Laos and other regions.
