The province of Dak Nong has published a M’Nong-Viet dictionary with over 10,000 words for the first time, after two years of doing research and editing printed material. This is considered the biggest M’Nong dictionary in Tay Nguyen (Central Highlands).

Since 2005, the Dak Nong provincial People’s Committee has invested almost VND700 million in carrying out the scientific project to “improve M’Nong letters and edit the M’Nong-Viet dictionary”. The project was carried out by the Dak Nong Department of Education and Training in coordination with the Linguistics Research Centre under the Southern Institute of Social Sciences.
