Hán Tự - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (173 words) |
 | Hán Tá»± (æ¼¢å—) or Chữ Nho (å—å„’) is the Vietnamese term for classical Chinese writing produced in Vietnam. |
| Chữ Nho was one of the official writing systems in ancient Vietnam and is also known as Chữ Hán. |
| Since the original pronunciation is unknown today, classical Chinese is read with the pronunciation specific to the reader's own language such as Chinese, Korean, Japanese, or in the case of Chữ Nho Vietnamese. |
| Vietnamese Language (1494 words) |
| Chu Nho was borrowed directly from the Chinese, just like the use of Latin in Europe. |
| Chu Nom: Han Thuyen, a famous Vietnamese poet in the 13th century is believed to be the inventor of this form of writing. |
| It is a cumbersome process so Chu Nom can be literally translated as "vulgar." The development of Chu Nom satisfied the historical urge of the Vietnamese to have their own written language, and to neutralize or to erase the 1,000 years of Chinese domination. |
