The Lai Tay script developed from the old Khmer script in the 16th century. It was used to write Tai Yo, a Southwestern Tai language spoken in Vietnam, Laos and Thailand. In particular, it was used in Thanh Hóa and Nghệ An provinces in the North Central Coast region of Vietnam.
The Lai Tay script is also known as the Tai Yo script, Yo Lai Tay script, Nge An script, Thai Lai Tay script or the Quy Chau script. It is no longer in common use, however some older scholars can read manuscripts in Lai Tay, and it is being taught and studied in the Tai Yo community.
