Tai Dam language

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tai Dam is a Tai language spoken in Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, and China (mostly in Jinping 金平). It is called pʰaːsaː tʰai dam ภาษาไทดำ ("Black Tai") in Thai and Dǎidānyǔ 傣担语 in Chinese.

Tai Dam speakers in China are classified as part of the Dai nationality.

An effort is underway to standardize the script in Unicode. At the Workshop on Encoding and Digitizing the Thai Script, held on 2006-11-03 in Điện Biên Phủ, Việt Nam, it has been proposed that the name of the script be called Tay, to indicate the Tai language as spoken in Việt Nam.
