My boyfriend is half Hmong but only speaks English and I want to learn the language so bad to communicate with his grandparents and aunts and uncles. It’s so encouraging seeing another black and Hmong couple. Thank you for this!
As you know, the Hmong language is base on pitch. So for example "go take a shower" if you say it in a different pitch, you could possibly say, "go to hell". LOL. But overall, Tanaya did well.
Hi! Tanaya, your pronunciation is awesome! My husband of 8 years doesn’t even pronounce words half as good as you. Keep up the good work! Also I’m green Hmong and this is tough for me haha.
I think her pronunciation is good. The Hmoob spelling for Don't want to go should be like this "Tsis xav mus", not like this: tsi sav mus. It's him who got it down wrong in the first place. Just a feed back, not to criticize. My next GF is going to be African American for sure. LOL 😆😆😆
You have GOT to be a Capricorn girl! You act just like me. ~What is he? Something with a high tolerance to our bossiness....lol maybe a virgo or a pisces? ~i'm not sure why I am mesmerized by the two of you, something about your authenticity is magical, stay REAL !
Hopped upon your site. You guys are super cute. Damn peter teach her some good words or phrases! Lol 😂😂🤣🤣 like "kuv zoo nkauj" coz that's what she is! You guys will have beautiful babies! 🤱🤱 I give Tanaya kudos for being able to pronounce all the words super close to the dot.
I am a Hmong Vang too!!! Where are y’all from? Just found ya’ll and all for your cool vibes! Subbed. Hmong language is very hard to learn. Like my husband always tells me, I don’t take enough showers too. Edit; watched some of your other videos and found out you’re in St. Paul. I used to live in MPLS, moved to Florida 15 years ago.
Awww... first time seeing this and I just want to compliment her on her pronunciation, eventhough some of the words he wrote didn't sound like it was written. Overall, this was entertaining to watch. Great job and keep it up!
You guys are doing great but I have to say,.....Peter in order for Tanaya to learn proper hmong words you need to know the proper words as well. Keep it up though.
Im a american man married to a wonderful hmong woman. Ill tell you lady your one bad ass mofo. This language is tough to learn. But if we keep it up we will get it! Drive on!!!
Kib Nyuab are 2 different words. It does not mean trash. Trash is = khij nyiab. Kib=pan frying. Or frying. Nyuab = hard. Just thought u should know.... lol
Peter isn't the best with spelling Hmong words. Also, you spelled it differently than another person that's commented on here. If that isn't confusing 😂 thanks for the advice though
This is great to see. Kudos to anyone trying or wanting to learn HMoob especially if you aren't familiar with tonal languages. Also, seems like Tanaya has some background with the written language since she commented about the tonal markers at the end of the words. Your pronunciation and understanding of the tones is pretty good. It would help if the words were spelled correctly though then I think you'd be able to say it correctly. Regardless, keep it up both of you.
Yes! We've been together for 8 years, so he's taught the way tones are pronounced. While he's not the best at spelling(i usually go to my friends for that), he does teach me words vocally usually.
I know there is a difference in dialect between white and green Hmong (here in the U.S.) I’m not aware of other dialects however. But I wouldn’t doubt if they do only speak green and white (the other tribes) it would still be different than here
To pronounce the words u have to know the prounounciation of the last letter sound otherwise u juz gonna guess what are the words. We sound the last letter like the letter vowels.
As a 35 yr old hmong American I’ve come to realize our hmong language is great for trash / shit talking compared to most languages because our language takes skill due to the complexity of the 6 tones. If we have a rap battle one mispronounced word makes a world of a difference and that could be because the right word was said but the pronunciation is just as important lol.
Good job girl keep trying and you sounds better then others. Peter, I think your wife at the end gonna sound better than you. Her voice is clear and understanding. Next time you both should do her language. I like to see you do that. Anyway, both of you great are couples and should be happy that you found we other. Both of you stay safe and enjoy life.
You never put a "kuv" or "koj" and your translation is I don't want to go. The translation is dont want yo go. 1 words 🤣 .. she's good in her hmong words. Keep it up. Keep teaching her . Funny how she knows I'm hungry lol 😆 good one. Keep it up. I hope she's becomes fluent and the future hmong child will and can be as influence as she will become
Lolz it’s xav not sav. Sav dab ntub = being interrupted in my sleep. Sav in green can also be used for full cooked meat. Plawb = lolz sounded more like you were trying to say hlwb (brain) more. Plaub = 4 (or) hair Hau = boil (or) head Hmong writing spell the way how it sounds. Example: ib sib ntsib thib khib dib. (Just remove anything before ‘ib’ and add letters to make a word out of it.
Dam bro.... paum dub bro.... helll yeaahhh we actually have a Hmong brotha marrying a black gal hell yeahhh... but good bcuz she has good personality and not rude an loud like other black girls.... bro es paum dub puas zoo nyob thiab os...?

He’s so tough with her but she’s so patient! She’s a keeper! Glad she wants to learn the language and culture! She is doing a great job 👏
No one has ever called me patient before. #growth
The language is very difficult

Yes! We're glad to see it! I do recommend MEMRISE the app. It has a great Hmong learning component
@@TheVangs Thank you!!
Your wife is so patient with you! Love watching you guys! 💜
Gosh dude be nice to your wife.

She can read in hmong better than I can.
Great with your tones! Peter, be nice to wife. She is so patient! Tanaya, you are so beautiful girl! ❤
Pronunciation is very important in any language. Keep learning...
Girl!!! You did really, really good!!!!!!!! Your tones are really good. You’re so cool!

Love this! Your wife is such a trooper!!!

She does an amazing job. Keep it up.
Awwwww, she's adorable!!!!!!
A good wife will transition into yours.
She's actually really good!
You guys are doing great but I have to say,.....Peter in order for Tanaya to learn proper hmong words you need to know the proper words as well. Keep it up though.
That's what I say! 😂 although he's not too good at spelling Hmong, he has taught me the jist of Hmong. Which is how im able to sound out the words.
I totally agree with you Ying lee
I'm learning hmong with a friend. He's a good teacher. Can she count to 20? Try it
I just found ya and is so in loved with ya video! I’m also re learning my Hmong from this video too. Keep it up girl! New subscriber! Lol
Thanks for watching!!
just remember practice doesnt make you perfect. practice makes improvement!
I like that! Thanks!
This will take time for me to know a good amount of Hmong but good thing I know bout part of the culture. 😁
He’s writing it wrong it’s not kib nyuab. It’s khib nyiab. He needs to be nicer she’s so sweet.
her hmong is sooo much better then mine😭 PLUS she can read it…..and i’m hmong…..
Im a american man married to a wonderful hmong woman. Ill tell you lady your one bad ass mofo. This language is tough to learn. But if we keep it up we will get it! Drive on!!!
It’s definitely hard, and still learning 11 years into it
Kib Nyuab are 2 different words. It does not mean trash. Trash is = khij nyiab. Kib=pan frying. Or frying. Nyuab = hard. Just thought u should know.... lol

Lol! Thank you! Yeah , next we'll work on Peter's spelling. Make HIM guess how to spell words right 😂😂 then I can be mean right back
Yes! We've been together for 8 years, so he's taught the way tones are pronounced. While he's not the best at spelling(i usually go to my friends for that), he does teach me words vocally usually.
@@TheVangs We're all learning so it's all good. I'm glad that you both are wanting to learn/teach each other. We can only do what we know. Keep it up!
Thanks. I like these videos to learn some Hmong. Are there differences between the different Hmong tribes too, like Black Hmong, Flower Hmong, etc.
I know there is a difference in dialect between white and green Hmong (here in the U.S.) I’m not aware of other dialects however. But I wouldn’t doubt if they do only speak green and white (the other tribes) it would still be different than here
To pronounce the words u have to know the prounounciation of the last letter sound otherwise u juz gonna guess what are the words. We sound the last letter like the letter vowels.
That was a fun watch for the wife and me. I hope to you both tell of family event experiences and overcoming life issues together.
For sure!
Both of you are cool couple. Neb sib phim kawg li nawj
Awwww..y'all are so cute. Keep it up! You got this.
My bil is American. He can't speak it but can definitely understand it. 😄😄😄

8 tones not 6
@@aliasdoe007 technically only 8 tones for Dananshan which are transcribed as pure tones. 7 tones for hmong daw and mong leeg

Thank you! No one has ever told me I sound clear when speaking Hmong! People usually can't understand me!
Love this video!
🥰🥰🥰
A good way too learn....thanks for sharing.....
This is so cool. I love it! Good job, I’m very impressed.
Wow good job!
Your wife's pronunciation is very fluent. 🙌🙌🙌
I taught her well
Jamie Chang, it's him who got most of the Hmong spellings wrong. LOL. She did an amazing job despite his poor Hmong 😆😆😆.
Sometimes she sounds just like a Hmong person. lol. Good job.
stop being mean to our wife... she's so patient with you!!!
Wow it’s all good 👍
Man she better than kids or adult these days … she’s Hmong for sure
Mr. Vang is straight up making fun of his wife. No respect.
Yea especially when he said her cooking was trash! I’ll never tell a women her cooking suck ! 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽
As long as she try...n as long as she can cook it like trash better than can't at all
Lol you guys, this is literally how we joke. Its okay, I don't get offended that easily.
Hahaha its okay, this is how we joke. He knows ill put him in a choke hold in 2 seconds flat. But scream it louder so we can make him feel bad 😂
You never put a "kuv" or "koj" and your translation is I don't want to go. The translation is dont want yo go. 1 words 🤣 .. she's good in her hmong words. Keep it up. Keep teaching her .

Proud of you two
Thank you!
She did awesome
where do you get all these hmong words from? most are wrong. Khib nyiab = trash/garbage kib = frying
I would love to have Tanaya as my daughter in law. And I would twist Peter’s ears, you need to me nice to Tanaya.
😅😅
Girl u did amazing. You’re better than our own kids hhahaha.
🤣🤣
Your spelling matters. 🤣 I only knew the words because they were close enough. But it definitely matters when it comes to learning.
Yes, we will have to spellcheck him before letting him spell hmong words in the future 😂
Pretty good girl! Keep it up
Omg you guys are so cute. What a cute couple.
My half nephews are blacks they love Hmong traditional not my kids opposite
Keep it up. You're doing good.
Thank you, I will
You two are fun to watch!
Thank you! -t
Love is love
Do more videos like this!!!
Funny but some of the hmong words were misspelled.
You’re doing ways better than my husband
Well, I had to learn from him which means he taught me well, even if his spellings are off. 😉
I thought in the beginning when you were talking about pounding I thought you was gonna say that’s when Hmong people are making Hmong pepper lol
😂
You’re wife is so cute!
(P) yeah I think so too
Love the video but some of the Hmong words were misspelled though ..keep up the good work and I would love to see more videos
Thanks!
Wow she is pretty good. I'm impressed. 😆
You guys are so cute!
Ya should title your video clips
"Hmonglish 101 for Dummies." 🤪😝😜
It’s not sav, it’s xav. The S alone sounds like a Sh in English.
Dame bro your wife is actually pretty 👍
Can I ask does she cook hmong food for you
Almost always!
Lolz it’s xav not sav. Sav dab ntub = being interrupted in my sleep. Sav in green can also be used for full cooked meat.
Plawb = lolz sounded more like you were trying to say hlwb (brain) more.
Plaub = 4 (or) hair
Hau = boil (or) head
Hmong writing spell the way how it sounds.
Example: ib sib ntsib thib khib dib. (Just remove anything before ‘ib’ and add letters to make a word out of it.
Dam bro.... paum dub bro.... helll yeaahhh we actually have a Hmong brotha marrying a black gal hell yeahhh... but good bcuz she has good personality and not rude an loud like other black girls.... bro es paum dub puas zoo nyob thiab os...?
You spelled some words wrong and she read it how you spelled.
That was rude !!! never tell a women her cooking is trash 👎🏽 or you’ll never get to eat ever again!!!! Hahhahahahaa 😂🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂
Exactly... Thats his Plan 🤣🤣🤣 so she stop cooking
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Kib means fry. Khib nyuab is the right spelling. Keep learning and you will get better.
Fuuuu....this woman is amazing lol.
Ohhhh.... wifey is good!
Wow run into your channel. I'm late but this is awesome!
Wife did well. Hehe
