Nôm Scripts of the Dao
The Nôm-Dao script constitutes a system of old scripts used by the Dao people to record the way in which they pronounce the Han script, which is connected to their cultural and ritualistic practices and quite different from the language the Dao people use in their daily life today. Because the Nôm-Dao script is so difficult to read and write, few Dao people are actually capable of understanding the texts and reading old documents and prayer books in the rituals of the Dao, and most of these people are now very old.
