老挝语“六调说”和“五调说”之争
The tones on Lao words vary from region to region. The way the language is pronounced is different in Khon Kaen, Udon, Ubon/Pakse, Nong Khai, Vientiane, Savannakhet, and Luang Prabang. Here the Vientiane pronunciation is described. If you're in Northeastern Thailand or in areas of Laos outside of Vientiane some words will have different tones.
The Great Tone Controversy
In Vientiane these days the big debate is how many tones the Vientiane variety of the language has. The debate is divided into two schools:
6 tones - This may be called the Dong Dok group, represented by people teaching and learning Lao by the Dong Dok University curriculum and older books such as Tuttle. This group says that one category of words has what they call a "low" tone that nevertheless rises slightly (and more inside the throat) when pronounced.
5 tones - This group is represented by several people holding PhD's in Lao language in Australia and America and people who have learned Lao independently in Vientiane. They say that the tone in the category called "low" by the Dong Dok group actually is the same tone as in the true rising category on the Lao tone chart.
To understand this debate you need to understand the Lao tone chart. The author of this website and of the Lao phrasebook presented here decided to use the five-tone system after listening to speakers in Vientiane. I saw that the "low" tone was actually rising when people said it, although some people gave it a fainter rising sound on some words. Other people, though, gave it a strong rising sound that sounded the same as a "real" rising tone. Some further study by the Dong Dok group is needed to see if their "low" tone really exists (in any case it sounds very different from what is called a low tone in Thai).
So, at least on this website Lao has five tones and you can learn to pronounce words like a Vientiane resident.
