This video represents the Eastern Sgaw dialect of the Sgaw Karen language spoken primarily in Hpa-an and Dooplaya region of Karen state Myanmar, and Tak province Thailand. The tones are quite different from other Sgaw dialects.
The Latinised script I have decided to use is called the Roman script (lix Romeij) which represents how Sgaw Karen looks and sounds in the latin script, although this script is based of Sgaw dialects from northern Thailand and used by Christians in that region. The Burman Sgaw Karen script that I have also used, called T'la nya however depicts the most accurate spelling for eastern Sgaw used by Sgaw Buddhists in southeast Myanmar. -Harry Po
is a Sino-Tibetan language spoken by the S'gaw Karen people of Myanmar and Thailand. A Karenic branch of the Sino-Tibetan language family, S'gaw Karen is spoken by over 2 million people in Tanintharyi Region, Ayeyarwady Region, Yangon Region, and Bago Region in Myanmar, and about 1 million in northern and western Thailand along the border near Kayin State. It is written using the S'gaw Karen alphabet, derived from the Burmese script, although a Latin-based script is also in use among the S'gaw Karen in northwestern Thailand.
Various divergent dialects are sometimes seen as separate languages: Paku in the northeast, Mopwa (Mobwa) in the northwest, Wewew, and Monnepw
