An interesting fact: The script was invented by a British protestant missionary James Outram Fraser. Now, it is still the most widely used script among Lisu people. Besides Lisu, another language Lipo is also spoken by some Lisu people. Lipo is also known as eastern Lisu in Chinese. Both Lisu and Lipo belong to the branch of central Loloish languages. Most Lisu people are Christians. As a Han Chinese Christian, I am so gald that there are also Christ-believing ethnic minority groups in China. They are my brothers and sisters.
Lisu is one of the 6 Thailand’s major hill tribe languages: Karen, Hmong, Mien, Akha, Lahu, and Lisu. Most of them belong to Tibeto-Burman (Sino-Tibetan family), except Hmong and Mien (Hmong-Mien family).
Lisu people didn’t have their own original writing system. The two Latin alphabet showed here were either created by European missionary or Chinese government.
They do have there own writing system. This isn't the Latin alphabet it is Fraser script. It is quite diffeeent from Latin They have used it for over 100 years.

The punctuation symbols at the end of some of the syllables represent tones. They can be combined to produce contour tones. None = middle tone . = high tone , = rising tone ' = middle nasalized tone ; = high falling glottalized tone : = high falling tone _ = low falling tone
But if you want isolating language without tones. Khmer (and most austroasitic languages actually) is there for you. Especially Northern Khmer. It lost most presyllables so it's monosyllabic. And of course it is highly isolating more so than, say, Thai or Vietnamese.

*HITS BLUNT*
why make new letters when I can flip the Latin letters
goddamn Im a genius
name checks out
That is most interesting script I've ever seen for a language... ever.
Almost looks a bit like Cherokee
It looks like Latin with modifications
@@jcxkzhgco3050 According to what I have read, the flip of letters consistently mean aspirated sounds.
Literally just corrupted Latin alphabet
i also like "Cherokee" and " Coptic"
傈僳族是主要生活在云南西部横断山区和缅北山区的一个民族。傈僳族主要有两种语言，傈僳语和东傈僳语（又叫里泼语，属于彝语中部方言），这两种语言关系很近，都属于彝语支，但不能互通。除此之外，还有少数傈僳人讲阿侬语（属藏缅语族侬语支）。
文化方面，绝大部分傈僳族信仰基督教。目前傈僳族主要使用的文字，就是本视频中那个看起来像是全大写的拉丁字母的奇怪文字。这个叫老傈僳文，是传教士富能仁1915年创制的。新中国成立后，也推行过新创立的拉丁字母书写的文字，但没有推行成功。现在政府发行的傈僳语报纸也是使用老傈僳文。
I'm a native Tibetan speaker and find quite a number of cognates here with Tibetan even though our people are so different
Because it's a Sino-Tibetan language
Lisus speak Tibeto Burman language, they migrated from Tibet to southern China and then further down to Thailand and Burma.
Ah! Thanks for the request you made for me! 🙏😇

Yes. It was invented by the missionaries.
They do have there own writing system. This isn't the Latin alphabet it is Fraser script. It is quite diffeeent from Latin They have used it for over 100 years.
Though I am Sino-Tibetan, I don't fully understand...

Yeah i like that
I'm Mandarin speaker. Although I can't understand Lisu at all, I can feel this language is very Sino-Tibetan.
Would you be able to do one for Sgaw Karen? I'd love to help

Lisu and Burmese are closer to Yi language group .
Their writing script is very weird. The writing script is like an upside-down latin script...
apparently it is derived from latin and created by a missionary... not an ancient scritp
@@tongsengpedas ok so originally, they don't have a writing script?
No, they don't
@@hatdogchezdogg
They have the Fraser script. They have used it for over 100 years.
What the language sounds like to me:

Excuse me, could you make a video about the Portuguese Gaucho? If you made a video about this dialect I would appreciate it very much! Happy Easter 😊
I need a volunteer.
How can I volunteer for one of your videos?

Have you made a video on afghan Persian (Dari)? Or Pashto? If not I could help

@@ilovelanguages0124 can the Sample text be a poem?
Sure! :D
Isolating without tones? Wonderful.
Lisu is tonal. That's what the "punctuation" marks placed after most syllables are indicating.
The punctuation symbols at the end of some of the syllables represent tones. They can be combined to produce contour tones.
None = middle tone
. = high tone
, = rising tone
' = middle nasalized tone
; = high falling glottalized tone
: = high falling tone
_ = low falling tone
But if you want isolating language without tones. Khmer (and most austroasitic languages actually) is there for you. Especially Northern Khmer. It lost most presyllables so it's monosyllabic. And of course it is highly isolating more so than, say, Thai or Vietnamese.
I think the Latin Alphabet might be drunk. Someone call an ambulance!
Lisu and Burmese have a lot of similarities
Hi Andy. I have sent you the email for Iulji. Best of luck
Background music is some banjo from Luisiana swamps
Does the flag have anything to do with the NLD flag?
it's not NLD flag, it's Lisu's flag.
Lisu have *star* and *crossbow* on their flag, while NLD has *star* and *peacock* on their flag.
Interesting writing system!
I use the sound of 2 for lisu number lore
这全都是开音节吗？
Pease,Make mon language. Please,I request.

Which dialect of lisu is this? I'm guessing the one from thailand?
Numbers pronunciation are very similar to Burmese, same family
