i just go back from china and met two miao women from kali, guizhou. They siad Ayoudou lives about 10 km from them and her last name is Yang. Love all Miao.
..yea Ayouduo is miao..miao/hmong are the same..only the miles & time separate us..AYOUDUO IF YOU'RE READING THIS WE LOVE YOU & YOUR VOICE WE CAME HERE TO LISTEN TO YOU BECAUSE A PART OF US IS MISSING & YOU HELP FILLED THAT GAP..thanks and bye..
Two common dialects are White and Green. My mother is a RED HEADDRESS HMONG yet she told me my ancestors are BLACK HMONG. My dad is WHITE HMONG yet he also told me my ancestors are BLACK HMONG. we have intermix with so many different Miao groups that we are still able to break down what we are. Yes, I can be White, Black, Stripe but I am not Green Hmong because I cannot trace my ancestors being Green. Though I do speak Green and have lots of Green Hmong buddies.
Lie Ayouduo is Hmu (Hmu is a subgroup of the Miao Zu/Hmong in China in case some of the people reading this don't understand) so I believe she speaks the Eastern Miao dialect. Song Zuying speaks the Easterm dialect as well.
Yes, the Green and White dialects are similar. I don't get the Hmong people who said they can't understand the Green dialect. I understand perfectly well. I have several close Green Hmong buddies. When they speak, it makes me want to speak the Green dialect with them. I am White-Black and Armbanded aka Stripe Hmong.
The White Miao or Bai Miao came from Kwangtung aka Guangdong Province according to their folktale. All Miao groups somewhat speak quite differently in the past but because we have live among one another for some centuries, we begin to somewhat understand one another. I understand hmoob lees perfectly but that if only they speak it slowly.
I believe Ayouduo speaks the Central dialect while Song Zuying speaks the Eastern dialect because if you listen to some video of Ayouduo where she performed in her native home, their dialect is very similar to Western. Their are also other Miao groups in China that their dialect is closely related to the Western Hmongic Family.
oh and for your info, I am a college student. I took cultural/physical anthropology classes, religion, asian art, ethnic studies, hmong history and linguistic studies. Languages/dialects are due to geography and regions as well. For your information, Magpie Hmong speak a different dialect but their dialect shift to be White. Don't speak nonsense if you don't understand White Hmong History. You don't know much about us. We're not just White like what you think we are.
@YangstaChix True. If she was not Hmong...... Hmong from Yunnan and Guangxi would not talk about her. Ayouduo is well known in all the Hmong communities in China.
I looked up Magpie bird thinking it was going to show me some revelation, but it didn't! It only showed the cuteness of a magpie bird and it's mimicking talents. ^^m Thanks for the reply. I think the magpie bird is cute, however, just 'cause I'm used to it, I prefer Stripe over Magpie (it sounds like something I can eat, like a pie). Well, now I'll leave you to your thing. Lets keep learning about our Hmong history! ~mbf =] p.s. Wait! This is not the end: paintings and their artists!
She speaks Hmong but in the Eastern Hmong/Miao dialect particular found in Guizhou, China. It's difficult for the Hmong in the Central and Western dialects to understand. There are sub-dialects but mostly classified as the Eastern, Central and Western dialects. The Hmong in Southeast Asian and U.S. speak the Western dialect.
Well, China recognises the Hmong as one of their last surviving ancient ethnic groups. The beautiful headdresses and clothes of the Hmong people in China attract many people. They're also the fifth largest ethnic group in China.
Ayouduo is just like Mim Haam...they both are Hmong Suav or Hmong Chinese. Lets put it this way about their language...Since they are in China they speak mandarain for show and media purposes...but im pretty sure they just speak hmong when they are in their homes. Just because Ayouduo isnt singing in hmong doesnt mean she doesnt know how to speak hmong at all.
I love this type of music but would someone please send me a message and explain to me what HMONG type music is and how it relates to the rest of the music of China. Thank you so much.
I just came back from china a month ago. I met some Hmong chinese the day before I return home. Some of them could talk to me in Hmong but some only understood a few words I said. Those who couldn't talk to me in Hmong could only say that they were Hmong Qeej which I've never heard before. What is Hmong Qeej? I know what Qeej is but Hmong Qeej, no no? I mean we have Hmong Dawb(white), Hmong Dub(black), Hmong Leng, Hmong Ntsuab(green) but Hmong Qeej is the first time I heard it.
Miao is just like a huge group of different Hmong people. With different dialects and a bit of difference in clothings, etc. just like the Hmong groups in Laos. Some speak green, some speak white. some are consider Black Hmong, Stripe Hmong, and their clothes are a bit different. But it comes to a conclusion that they are ALL Hmong. How i see it, Miao in China is similar.
Miao is the name Chinese gave it to us Hmong or Mong people after they took over our homeland. Maio mean young seeds, to be percite young rice seeds after our ancestor Daxi or Naxi depend on how you want to spell it. Naxi was known for their argricultures such as farming. Even today Chinese barrow alot of crops name from the Hmong. Miao was giving to us meaning we're the young seeds or a branch of Naxi. Again Naxi was giving to them by Chinese. Chinese intended to seperate Hmong people but fail.
@david1234lee Yes my friend. Despite as Miao people going through extensive changes, we should always remember who we are. We are distant physically and geographically, but in our hearts, we are still one big family.
Yes, but how come it's Magpie instead of Stipe? I mean, I just don't get where the workd magpie derives from...Like, it just sounds like a label (well, of course green and white are labels too...hmmm...Do you get what I mean?)
i hope your daddy enjoyed his time in laos and thailand. feel sorry that he had to spent time traveling this long distance at that time. but i think most minorities enjoy their time and the resource mainland provided them cause that's not what the other countries can provide. like in your post, i don't feel that you were well-educated.
I don't mean to intrude, but magpie Hmong? Is this a new category? As far as I know it, I've been calling them Stripe Hmong ('cause that's the literal translatin from Hmoob to English...)...This is also from my own general knowledge only...no classes involved...
The people Hmong lived in the Lao country, and have been killed by mass murders of the Lao communist Party. A few survivors are migrated in US and French Guyana ( South America ). French documentary (2005 ) on UA-cam about the last ones fighting against the communist criminals !
Even if miao speaks chinese if we go there to china and speak hmong to miaos they can still understand and reply back in hmong because they're hmong themselves just live in china..Hmong chinese..just like those who are born in america..Hmong Americans..we sepak english...that doesn't make us white...hehehehe
Look we Hmong-American don't even understand each other, and the funny is we all from Laos. GreenHmong don't even understand whiteHmong and the other way around. So don't expect yourself to understand the Hmong-Chinese. We had left them behind in China for over 600 years. We Hmong-American live side by side and become some of us are green while others are white, we don't even understand each other that well sometimes. We are the funny puppy here.
You make it seems like you're the only intelligent one here. Both White and Lees/Green do not agree. You only made this statement because you believe it to be the original one. Both White and Green Hmong are separate groups from the same branch long ago. For your information, Hmong in the West speak more than just two dialects -- Hmong in the west include Yunnan, Vietnam, Burma, Thailand and etc.. if you're talking about United States I don't know about that.
It's quite obvious that you're showing green nationalistic/superiority statement. As a white Hmong, our parents have always tell us that we're either WHITE, MAGPIE or BLACK but majority of the time, we're either Black or White. From your statements above, it seems like you're not elaborating your research. seems more like you're just going along with whatever these hmong professors are saying. There is no such thing as ORIGINAL dialect.
I am proud to be Hmong! We have a rich culture!
she is beautiful in blue. Gorgeous in red. lastly, a very bright smile.
สร้อยเงินยวงพวงร้อยเข้าห้อยศอ
นางก็ถ่อเต้นตาม......งามอย่างเขา
บรรเลงร่ายเพลงระบำย่ำเท้าเบา
ต้อนรับเอาหมู่ชน..........คนเข้าชม
Nice clip from your hometown. Lovely lady.
Welcome to my hometown.really beautiful
i just go back from china and met two miao women from kali, guizhou. They siad Ayoudou lives about 10 km from them and her last name is Yang. Love all Miao.

..yea Ayouduo is miao..miao/hmong are the same..only the miles & time separate us..AYOUDUO IF YOU'RE READING THIS WE LOVE YOU & YOUR VOICE WE CAME HERE TO LISTEN TO YOU BECAUSE A PART OF US IS MISSING & YOU HELP FILLED THAT GAP..thanks and bye..
I am your fan sister. nice song
Armbanded and Stripe Hmong are known as Magpie Hmong. Both Green and White are part of the Chuanqiandian or Yunnan/Sichuan Miao languages.
I've been to Gui Zhou before, it's a really beautiful place!
Welcome to Hmong land. We welcome you.
This makes me want to travel so bad. No wonder my dad likes to go back to Laos and Thailand so much.
Two common dialects are White and Green. My mother is a RED HEADDRESS HMONG yet she told me my ancestors are BLACK HMONG. My dad is WHITE HMONG yet he also told me my ancestors are BLACK HMONG. we have intermix with so many different Miao groups that we are still able to break down what we are. Yes, I can be White, Black, Stripe but I am not Green Hmong because I cannot trace my ancestors being Green. Though I do speak Green and have lots of Green Hmong buddies.
beautiful in so many ways... her singing is amazing!
Lie Ayouduo is Hmu (Hmu is a subgroup of the Miao Zu/Hmong in China in case some of the people reading this don't understand) so I believe she speaks the Eastern Miao dialect. Song Zuying speaks the Easterm dialect as well.
Nice video by the way thanks for he upload, Hmong ladies looks beautiful.
MIAO
Yes, the Green and White dialects are similar. I don't get the Hmong people who said they can't understand the Green dialect. I understand perfectly well. I have several close Green Hmong buddies. When they speak, it makes me want to speak the Green dialect with them.
I am White-Black and Armbanded aka Stripe Hmong.
I ama Miazu according to my parents.
I am proud of this song! Delightful and pretty as Yunan's landscape!

@YangstaChix
True. If she was not Hmong...... Hmong from Yunnan and Guangxi would not talk about her. Ayouduo is well known in all the Hmong communities in China.
Does anyone have the video of her singing about mom's love or something like that? I love that song.

Wait! This is not the end: paintings and their artists!
Thank for sharing. Kaili? I would love to go visit Guizhou one day.

Beautiful song !! I like very much !
Love this song!
it is so beautiful!
I always refer to the Yunnan dialect, White and Green dialects from the Miao in Southeast Asia and the Western countries as the Western dialect.
Ayouduo is just like Mim Haam...they both are Hmong Suav or Hmong Chinese. Lets put it this way about their language...Since they are in China they speak mandarain for show and media purposes...but im pretty sure they just speak hmong when they are in their homes. Just because Ayouduo isnt singing in hmong doesnt mean she doesnt know how to speak hmong at all.
this video makes me want to go there! =)
i likr the song my fravite!!!!!!!!!
I agree. Crow is a sacred animal in the Hmong culture. If you kill a crow, you will have bad luck. Magpies are beautiful bird.
beautiful!hmong chinese still cointains more hmong traditions n tradition n culture than the hmong here in the usa.
I love this type of music but would someone please send me a message and explain to me what HMONG type music is and how it relates to the rest of the music of China. Thank you so much.
She is Hmong, according to official Chinee sources.
I just came back from china a month ago. I met some Hmong chinese the day before I return home. Some of them could talk to me in Hmong but some only understood a few words I said. Those who couldn't talk to me in Hmong could only say that they were Hmong Qeej which I've never heard before. What is Hmong Qeej? I know what Qeej is but Hmong Qeej, no no?

Yes my friend. Despite as Miao people going through extensive changes, we should always remember who we are. We are distant physically and geographically, but in our hearts, we are still one big family.
It seems like there is always music in the life of the Hmong in China and here, I wonder what happened to those of us in America.
She so pretty and you to
Yes, but how come it's Magpie instead of Stipe? I mean, I just don't get where the workd magpie derives from...Like, it just sounds like a label (well, of course green and white are labels too...hmmm...Do you get what I mean?)
oh man i just wanna meet her in life..but man im not miao...im hmong american
she's so pretty either wearing traditional or modern clothes.
I am more of a armbanded Miao, a subgroup of the White Miao.
Magpie Hmong simply means Stripe Hmong.
@mengthor
amen.
THIS VIDEO IS VERY PRETTY AND SO IS SHE. why does the chinese people like rivers soo much?
I spelled Miss Ayouduo's surname wrong. It should be Lei, Ayouduo.
search Magpie bird. lol
I get what you mean. I prefer Magpie over Stripe. LOL either one is correct.
i hope your daddy enjoyed his time in laos and thailand. feel sorry that he had to spent time traveling this long distance at that time. but i think most minorities enjoy their time and the resource mainland provided them cause that's not what the other countries can provide. like in your post, i don't feel that you were well-educated.
What are you? Han Chinese?
I don't mean to intrude, but magpie Hmong? Is this a new category? As far as I know it, I've been calling them Stripe Hmong ('cause that's the literal translatin from Hmoob to English...)...This is also from my own general knowledge only...no classes involved...
agree! she is miao but not hmong. hmong, what is it? Never know this word. MiaoZu is the race in china
The people Hmong lived in the Lao country, and have been killed by mass murders of the Lao communist Party. A few survivors are migrated in US and French Guyana ( South America ). French documentary (2005 ) on UA-cam about the last ones fighting against the communist criminals !

do she know how to speak HMONG? since she is HMONG. or do she only know how to speak CHINESE even though she's hmong.
she is miao=hmong
she is not Han
To najprawdopodobniej chiński-mandaryński i sądze że jest spoko muzyką to.
she's looks funny in modern clothes

take down the ccp
It's quite obvious that you're showing green nationalistic/superiority statement.
