Language
In Asia there are three different groups of Dara-Ang: Dara-Ang-Won, better known as Black Dara-Ang whose dress resembles the Lahu tribe, Hleng-Dara-Ang or red Dara-Ang and Lui Dara-Ang or White Dara-Ang. There are many differences between these tribes such as the pronunciation of the language and the stress on high or low tones. But although these small differences in language and costume exist, these tribes can all communicate with each other.
The Dara-Ang people have many unique colloquialisms but have no written language. Usually Dara-Ang people can speak Shan language very well because they live in territory ruled by Shan. The Dara-Ang people like to use the Shan language as it is the main language used to communicate with other tribes such as Lahu, Akha and Lisu as these tribes can usually speak Shan as well.
The Dara-Ang people usually speak loudly, clearly and fast. Their intonation resembles Karen language. They stress high tones. The Dara-Ang people have mastered the basics of the Shan language better than other tribes and can communicate and speak Northern Thai language. They speak Thai language with clear intonation and pronunciation.
