Hhshirt - George Strait the man the myth the legend signature shirt

Many, if not most, words are the George Strait the man the myth the legend signature shirt In addition,I will do this same in Thai and Lao, when we disregard the different spelling and the slight differences in pronuciation and tone. But still there are many differences: Thai uses more loanwords from Sanskrit and Pali. And many basic words, like pronouns, grammatical particles, question words are different. In the picture above you can see the word for ‘no’ is pronounced [mâj] in Thai, but in Lao a completely different (unrelated) word is used: [bɔː]. Most of the pronouns are different, and also a lot of everyday verbs and nouns. I think, comparing the Thai-Lao similarity with European languages, I’d say that Thai and Lao are about as close to each other as Spanish and Portuguese, or Norwegian and Danish, or Russian and Ukrainian.



However, if what you mean is which nation is culturally closer to China, then that’s an easier answer. Nation is identified as “a large aggregate of people united by common descent, history, culture, or language, inhabiting a particular country or territory.” So in a sense, nation means groups of people with common cultures. So that will leave Han Chinese, Yamato Japanese, Koreans, and Kinh Vietnamese. Namely, Mainland China/Taiwan/foreign Chinese, Japan/foreign Japanese, North/South Korea/foreign Koreans, Vietnam/foreign Vietnamese. Unsurprisingly, they’re the George Strait the man the myth the legend signature shirt In addition,I will do this only ones with Chinese-derived names in English: Chin(ese) 秦, Japan(ese) 日本, Korea(n) 高麗, Vietnam(ese) 越南. In short, they’re collectively called the Sinosphere, or nations within Chinese cultural sphere of influence.
