ntsuab...ntsuob?????

moob leeg tsi hu ua "ntsuob." peb yeej hu ua ntsuab, with an abrupt ending sound....this goes for all "ua" words...

Admin reply: โอ = UO = Moob leeg
ัอัว = UA = Hmoob dawb
อา = A = Hmoob dawb
อาง = AA = Moog leeg
อ = o = both dawb/leeg

Moob leeg never siv lub suab (ua อัว)
moob leeg has ua (uo โอ)
both use (o อ)

Peb mam xaiv koj cov lub mus kho thiab dhos ntxiv rau hauv peb phau ntawv. Peb yuav tsis zwm txhua~ lo los txhob xav li cas vim tias ua ntej peb yuav siv peb yuav tau paub meej~ tias lo lus ntawv siv li cas, yuav siv ua verb los yog ua noun, usage ne ho yuav siv li cas. Piv txwm li koj lo lus FOOB YEEM.

Foob carry qhov meaning dab tsi? YEEM yog los qhov twg los?

Foob : 1. (EN) u. sue, action, litigate, process, indict, prosecute; (LT) sib kauj lus mus hais nram nom nram tswv (kuv foob koj rau pem toj xeem); 2. (EN) u. close, seal; (SX) voob; (LS) lo kom ntom, cam kom tsis txhob khoob (muab lub qhov kov foob kiag kom txhob dim pa); 3. (EN) p. close, airless, unaired, stuffy; (LS) tsis dim pa, tsis to qhov [kaus npua foob] (kuv muaj ib tug kaus npua foob); 4. (EN) n. wind; (SX) cua, cuo; (LS) cua (lub foob xab ces yog lub raj cua)

Yeem : 1. (EN) u. level, to-make-equal; (SX) luj, tsheej; ntsuas saib ntau npaum cas, ua kom sib npaug, ua kom ib yam (muab lub ntim los yeem cov txhuv); 2. (EN) u. agree, consent, assent; (SX) kam; (LS) txaus siab, zoo siab (koj puas yeem nrog kuv mus); 3. (EN) n. shield; (LS) lub vaj loog pov hwm pov yoom [fiv yeem] (peb fiv ib lub yeem pov tag nrho peb tsob Hmoob); 4. (EN) u. reflect, echo; (LS) nrov ntxhee (ib tug tsov nyooj yeem hav laws tuaj); 5. (EN) n. level; lub luag qhov siab los qis (kuv txo ib yeem ua ntej koj mam luaj lawv qab tuaj)

FOOB YEEM nyob ntawm no FOOB carried the second meaning 2. (EN) u. close, seal; (SX) voob; (LS) lo kom ntom, cam kom tsis txhob khoob (muab lub qhov kov foob kiag kom txhob dim pa);

Ho YEEM carried the third meaning 3. (EN) n. shield; (LS) lub vaj loog pov hwm pov yoom [fiv yeem] (peb fiv ib lub yeem pov tag nrho peb tsob Hmoob)

FOOB YEEM ob lo tsis yog ib lo; FOOB txhai tau tias kaw los yog npog tsis pub kom dim pa, ho yeem yog lub yeem uas tau fiv tseg.

Tus Txiv Neeb yuav FOOB nws lub YEEM nws thiaj ua neeb tso qhua..

No yog peb liaj txheej kev txhai lus Hmoob, yog peb tsis to tau thiaj muab tsis tau lub yeej ntsiab ces peb yuav tsis siv...

Yog nej xab kom peb tso rau hauv phau ntawv no nej yuav tau txhais kom meej~.

niam ua luag:

by definition, this is teh groom's sister, and totally different from niam txais ntsuab. this entity exists only during small weddings (me tshoob), where niam txais ntsuab doens't exist. her function is purely to "guard" the bribe against other potential guys during the wedding, nothing else. during small wweddings, as stated before, niam txais ntsuab doesnt' exit..but niam ua luag does.

Admin reply: Niam txais ntsuab = Raws li Hmoob feem coob paub ces yog tus niam ua luag xwb. Tej zaum cov kws tshoob lawv yuav muaj lawm li koj zaj tab peb mam tshawb ntxiv saib qhov tseeb yog li cas tiag.

Since no one would give me access to giving out corrections/suggestions, i will make some in here.

niam txais ntsuab: t

this is by no mean the "niam ua luag" as stated in here. some people call it the bridesmaid, which is wrong also. niam txais ntsuab txiv txais ntsuab are the "receiving" couple during "niam tshoob", as a result of nqis tsev hais, which has no niam ua luag. the matching couple for niam txais ntsuab txiv txais ntsuab are the "giving" couple..or niam xa txiv xa. their roles are very specific: niam xa txiv xa = xa nkauj nyab mus tom vauv tsev...and niam txais ntsuab txiv txais ntsuab = the receiving couple. such a wedding takes place at ntxhais tsev, and then everyone goes to the grooms house to repeat the whole thing again. this is called niam tshoob. most people doens't know that niam txais ntsuab txiv txais ntsuab is not the "niam ua luag"

Admin reply: Hmoob cov tshoob uas loj thiab cov nyom li koj hais ntshe tsuas muaj nyob yav ntuj qub qab xwb. Cov kws laus li nej yuav paub tabsis me nyuam Hmoob feem coob siv lo lus Niam Txais Ntsuab txhua~ rooj tshoob.

I thought it was a very difficult test. Amazingly, I got 4/10 correct and I guessed every answer.

When do we ever use this kind of language? Most Hmong people don't even talk like that, because if they did, I wouldn't understand any of it, and I'm Hmong, so I do understand Hmong (dawb and leeg).

I had a difficult time understanding the questions. They are so wordy and convoluted. And like I said, I've never heard Hmong people say those words... bring it down a notch or ten.

Just my two cents. And what's the point of the question below about Pao Vang?

Kris :o

Admin reply: Tsis tau muaj leej twg mus kawm lus Hmoob, peb tej laus twb tsis tau mus kawm ntawv lawv tsis paub verb thiab noun, lawv tsuas kawm hais lus ib txheej dhau ib txheej tab sis tsis kawm define lub ntsiab lus ntawm peb cov lus. Peb tsuas zeem tau guess qhov meaning xwb. That is why peb thiaj hais lus tsis sib to taub zoo vim kuv hais ib qho koj guess koj ib qhov lawm. Yog li ntawv peb thiaj yuav tau los define thiab muab teeb ua verb ua noun. Qhov skill test tsuas yog yuav qhia kom sawv daws paub tias lus Hmoob yeej muaj verb muaj noun thiaj muaj ntsiab lus tib yam li luag pej kum lwm haiv lus. Piv txwv li TAB YAJ thiab TAB SEEB; Tab tib yam tab sis nyias muaj nyias meaning. TAB YAJ yog los ntawm TAB MEEG uas txhais tias tim ntsej tim muag (face to face), ho YAJ yog los ntawm YAJ CEEB siv ua noun txhais tias lub HNUB. Thaum peb hais tias ua neej nyob saum yaj tuag mus nruab yeeb yog hais tias ua neej nyob saum lub ceeb uas muaj yaj (qhov chaw uas muaj lub hnub) tuag muag nruab yeeb yog tuag mus ua duab ua xyw (imaginary word). Yog li ntaw TAB YAJ mean face to the sun (daim teb no tab yaj heev mean hais tias daim teb no raug hnub heev. Ho lo TAB SEEB yog los ntawm TAB TWM or TAB thiab Txooj txhais tau tias ib xwb (single, alone) SEEB yog los ntawm FAB SEEB LEM TIAM txhais tau tias ntxeev cev rov lwm tiam. SEEB thiaj txhais tau tias lub cev (BODY) tab seeb mean single body, TSIS TAB SEEB (NOT SINGLE BODY) translate to pregnant. Li no peb thiaj yuav tob tau lub ntsiab lus ntawm peb cov lus.

I use the question about Vang Pao to filter out unwanted spammer. It is like a passcode that any Hmong people or who ever interest in Hmong should know.
