I use to speak Hmong so much, but now I speak less and less of it everyday. I try to every once in a while and encourage my siblings too.

Gosh, my younger sister can speak hmong, but she would not use it at all no matter how much we try to make her. well, she only talk a little hmong to my grandmother. i taslked so much hmong that people are really surprised. alot of the people who just knew me always assume i'm one of those girls who don't know how to speak hmong and i am so glad to surprise all of them. i wish i know more hmong words though. i talked in hmong all the times, but only the same words over and over again, no hard words.

same here...began watching it when i was...hmm...when i was 9... since then... i've watched hundreds of lakorns and eventually... i picked up the language... i can understand basic Thai and speak it...

i also taught myself how to read and write Thai... i can write very well... but my spelling and grammar of Thai really sucks... as for reading... i'm getting better everyday...

i'm thinking about taking some professional class to improve my Thai... so i can become fluent in it...

When i was younger I spoke mainly English, but after meeting my boyfriend, and not fully understanding him, made me feel stupid, because I'm hmong and I can't fully understand it... so being with him taught me a lot, esp speaking Hmong. I speak Hmong more now than before.. I actually enjoy speaking in Hmong...

I dont' use it at work at all because I'm the only Hmong, but at home I would say I use it about 85% of the time...
