Tai Yo (Vietnamese spelling: Tai Do) is a Tai language of Southeast Asia. It is closely related to Tai Pao of Vietnam, where it may have originated. It was once written in its own script, but that is no longer in use.〔 The language is known regionally as ''Tai Do'' and '' Tai Quy Chau'' in Vietnam, and as ''Tai Mène'' and ''Tai Nyaw'' in Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia.〔()〕 ==Tai Mène== The Mène people of Laos claim to be from Xieng Mène (also Xieng My) in Vietnam. These two names correspond to the following two towns in Nghệ An province, Vietnam, located near Quỳ Châu (Chamberlain 1998). *Xiếng Líp: located at the Nam Lip and Nam Chou (Houay Cha Ha) confluence, near the Cha Ha and Nam Ngoen (Ngân) confluence (which converge to form the Nam Souang or Houay Nguyên). *Bản Pốt: located further east on the Nam Ngân. Tai Mène appears to be related to Tai Pao (''paaw 4'' < *''baaw A''), whose speakers claim to have originated from Tương Dương District, Nghệ An province, Vietnam (Chamberlain 1991). Tai Mène or related languages may have also been spoken in Thường Xuân District, Thanh Hóa, Vietnam by the Yo (Do) people (Robequain 1929). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tai Yo language」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
