Overview of Lao
Lao, the official language of Laos, belongs to the Tai-Kadai language family and is spoken by about 7 million people. Lao uses the Lao script, an abugida derived from the ancient Brahmi script. As Laos continues to develop and open up, the demand for Lao translation services is increasing in various fields such as business, tourism, and education.
