Other comments: With some differences in tones, the numerals of Lao are identical to those of Thai. The phonetic realization of the tones is described using Chao (1934) system which used a 5-point scale with 1-low and 5-high. The tones as are follows: Tone 1: 23; Tone 2: 44, Tone 3: 21; Tone 4: 45: Tone 5: 54. Lao or Laotian is spoken by approximately 4,500,000 in Mekong river valley, south to the Cambodia border, Laos, as well as Cambodia, Thailand and Vietnam. |
