Father of Hmong Latin Script/Writing had passed...
txia...@gmail.com
I am not sure of how many of you know how to write Hmong Latin (Hmoob
Las Tees) or better known as Romanized Popular Alphabets (RPA). Well
the last remaining founder, Father Yves Bertrais or Txiv Plig Nyiaj
Pov Yaj had just passed away this past Sunday arond 98 a.m. French
time zone.
A short history: Father Bertais found the White Hmong dialects in
Luangprabang and Dr. Lindwood (passed away ~ '98) found the Mong Leng/
Green in Samnua or modern day Huapha Province of Laos. Then Dr.
Williams Smalley, the linguist, help them two combine into what is
currently being used by all Hmong churches and others.
Father Bertrais' undying for the Hmong is unquestioned. As a testiment
of this he has requested earlier to have a traditional Hmong funeral
for him. As apart of our appreciation for him, his church, and his
passion, please consider a word or two and/or a small monetary
contribution toward his funeral.
Here's the pertinent information regarding contact information for
sending your messages or contribution as well as his funeral
arrangements in France. Please share the news with your circle of
influences; the following has been forward by Xia Vue Yang in
