Linguistic considerations

Getting Hmong right.

Small choices — dialect, script, register — change whether a Hmong document is accepted or an interpretation session lands correctly.

Dialect & variety

White Hmong (Hmong Daw) and Green Hmong (Mong Leng) differ. Most U.S. Hmong speakers use White Hmong; we confirm with the client.

Script & typography

The Romanised Popular Alphabet (RPA) is the standard written system in the U.S. Pahawh Hmong, an indigenous script, is rarely used in professional settings.
