This article is about a person, place, or concept whose name is originally rendered in the Burmese script; however the article does not have that version of its name in the article's lead paragraph. Anyone who is knowledgeable enough with the original language is invited to assist in adding the Burmese script. In addition, depending on the subject matter, the name may also need to be rendered in other local languages, such as Shan or Karen, and help of this nature is greatly appreciated and most welcomed. For more information, see Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Burmese).

[edit] Pronunciation?

If any article ever needed pronunciation info, this one does. IPA please. —Keenan Pepper 04:17, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

It's similar to "pear" but omit the consonant ending as usual with Burmese. Wagaung 06:15, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

I always pronounced it "H-nay" (the "H" being a puff of air). So that way of pronouncing it is wrong? How do you get the "p"? Badagnani 09:51, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Hn is aspirated, so a very nasal n without actually sounding the h, and say it like pear with a glottal stop. Have fun. Wagaung 22:07, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
