COMENTÁRIOS SOBRE O CONTEXTO DO IDIOMA

"Older Ersu speakers (typically above their sixties) are mostly trilingual (Ersu, SW Mandarin, Nuosu). Over the last three decades, most Ersu speakers have been bilingual using SW Mandarin in daily life. The current trend for the school-going generation is to become practically monolingual in Mandarin."

Scripts, sistemas de escrita e ortografias

Shaba; IPA; roman scripts

Ortografia

"Ersu has its own pictographic writing system, known as shaba (Ersu /ṣàpá/‘ritual priest’) writing, which is chiefly used by Bon priests. In 2014, Chirkova and Wang Dehe developed a Romanization system (see http://wdh51818.blog.163.com/blog/static/418964201532325438373/). It is currently used in Ersu traditional story annotations for ELAR (ELDP) and for the Ersu-Mandarin Dictionary (by Wang & Chirkova, in preparation)."
