Talk:Bắc Kạn province

message: Article needs literal meaning of province name, and Han Tu. Badagnani 07:44, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The k used in front of the second syllable is a non-standard spelling (k is only used in front of i, e, ê, and y) and suggests a non-Chinese etymology. DHN 16:09, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

text: This province was created in 1997.  I would guess that the name is a Sino-Tay compound since there are many Tay people there. Most ethnic minorities in Vietnam reside in the provinces north of Hanoi (near the Sino-Vietnamese border) and in the central highlands. DHN 17:39, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

text: I thought the primary reason to provide names in their native format is to help researchers find information about them in primary source documents.  What's the purpose of Chinese (or pseudo-Chinese) characters in an article about a province created 10 years ago?! DHN (talk) 19:34, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The Han Tu characters are useful from a historical perspective, they are included for some provinces but not for others. I suggest including for all. Please note the introduction does not make sense. What did Ho Chi Minh do? Hvaltonen (talk) 06:36, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Literal meaning

message: It's useful and helpful to use "Discussion," which is active and ongoing, before blanking, thanks. The characters under discussion are not "Chinese," but in fact Vietnamese. A number of toponyms (including current, new province names) were already in use, and rendered in Han tu/Chu nom before the abandonment of Han tu/Chu nom by most Vietnamese. Thus, their etymology is not irrelevant and provides an irreplaceable resource. The characters supplied above (not the ones that were in the article) were sent by a specialist Han tu/Chu nom researcher in Vietnam. Badagnani (talk) 19:32, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
