About the Shan Language
The Shan language, known as Tai Yai or Tai Long in other Tai dialects, is a member of the Tai-Kadai language family, closely related to Thai and Lao. Spoken predominantly in Shan State, Myanmar, the Shan language is also found in northern Thailand, Laos, and parts of Assam, India. With five distinct tones and a unique sixth tone used for emphasis, the language is rich in tonal variation and cultural significance.
Geographic Reach and Demographics
While the exact number of Shan speakers remains uncertain due to migration and the dispersion of Shan communities, estimates suggest there are approximately 3-4 million speakers in Myanmar and up to 1 million speakers in Thailand. The Shan people, one of Myanmar’s largest ethnic minorities, have preserved their language and cultural heritage despite challenges such as civil unrest and displacement.
Shan Script
The Shan script, derived from the Burmese alphabet, is an abugida where consonants inherently carry a vowel sound. Its circular letters and tonal markers make it visually distinct. Due to its historical and cultural value, the Shan script remains an essential element of the language, though modern usage often incorporates Romanized versions for digital communication.

Highly recommended
Arora patiently helped me through the entire process.
Several changes on my part, including a last-minute one. No worries, it all went smoothly and pleasantly.
But this. Of all the translation agencies I approached, Worldwide Interpreting and Translation was the ONLY one to point out that Karen had different dialects. Arora supplied me with samples (for free) to test on my audience, and ascertain the correct dialect.
Excellent service and I hope to use WorldWide Interpreting and Translation again!
