Writing Style a phunphun a ummi kong he pehtlaiin keimah ka hmuh khawh tawk in ka rak langhter ve hnik tuah lai.


Cawnmi ca le hlathlaimi thil, konglam pakhatkhat he pehtlaiin mah le hlathlai deuhmi (specialized discipline) ruangah hi ti hin cattial ningcang aa dan bik hi a si rua ka ti. Cucaah mah le field cio i hman ding tiin cattial ningcang a phunphun in a chuahnak hi a si. An in tinhmi cio aa khat ko hmanh ah cattial ningcang cu tlawmpal tete in dannak an ngei. Cucaah ca pakhatkhat kan ttial tikah, kan hlathlai tikah ruahawk thil a ummi cu:


1. Ka professor, instructor, supervisor nih zei bantuk documentation style dah a duh ti kha theih a hau or Sianginn nih zeibantuk style dah an hman ti kha theih a hau.


2. Professor, instructor, supervisor or Sianginn nih kuttlaih, duhhleimi (preference) a um lo ahcun nangmah nih na duhmi te kha i thim ding asi ko.


3. Na tialning tu kha consistency( hnu le hmai i lo seh) ti khi biapi in an chiah cio caah asi.


4. Cattialning kong he pehtlaiin zulhmi tete (rules or styles) nih aa tinhmi cu mi pakhat khat i a ruahnak fir riangmang i mah ruahnak bantukin hman lo ding (Plagiarism) um hlah seh ti duhnak le Academic Honesty papek kha asi ko.


Lungfian deuh nakah MLA style nih cun Humanities studies lei papek in a tuahmi hna caah chuahmi si i APA style cu Social Science or a bikin Psychological studies ca deuh ah chuahmi a si ve. Zei ruangah dah discipline dihlak nih hin aakhatmi Style an hman dih ko lo? Hmang dih hna sehlaw tlam a tling deuh men lai ti zong a ruatmi an tampi. A ruang cu aadang liangluangmi disciplines ruangah aadang liangluangmi zulhmi (citation styles) a chuahnak hi asi ko. Tahchunhnak: Social science or Psychological (APA)a hlat hlaimi nih cun hi document hi zeitik kum (date) i an chuahmi dah asi ti kha Humanities (MLA) lei a hlathlaimi nakin biapi deuh ah an chiah (Update asi maw si lo?). Cucaah mi nih an ttialmi ca pakhat khat an i lak tik ah, MLA nih cun (e.g., Rodrigues 36) tiin a ttial nain APA nih cun (e.g., Rodrigues 1996) tibantuk in a kum (date) kha biapi ah an chiah deuh.


Writing Styles tampi a ummi lakah tlawmpal tein an min le an sining ka rak langhter ta lai.


1. MLA (Modern Language Association), 7th edition tiang an chuah cang, 2009 ah. Hihi cu research papers le scholarly articles a tuahtu hna kutken deuh asi. A bikin Literature, art, and humanities lei study a tuahmi hna nih an hman bik.

3. Chicago (The Chicago Manual of Style), 15th edition tiang lawng ka theih i 16th edition zong a chuak kho men cang. Hi style hi cu zeibantuk subject ca poah hman khawh dingin chuahmi asi. Tahchunhnak ah physical or natural sciences, le history tibantuk caah. Cun hi style ah hin cattialtu nih a duh deuhmi hmang seh tiah thiamding (choice) hna an telh chih. Kawlram cattialtu le Bible sianginn hna zong nih kan hman pah ngai.


4. Turabian, (A Manual for Writers of Term Papers, Theses and Dissertations) 7th edition, 2007. Chicago Manual nih a hrinmi ti zong ti khawh asi. Tam deuh cu an i khat fawn. Kate Turabian hi University of Chicago ah Dissertation Secretary kum 30 leng a ttuan hnu ah hi Manual hi a hlei in College Students nih zeibantuk subjects ca poah ah hman khawh dingin a chuahmi asi. Cucaah Turabian hi cu cauk topic nih a langhter bangin College ah sianginn ngakchia hna nih Class chung i, or Sianginn i ap dingmi Papers (rather than publication) an ttialmi ca deuh caah tinhmi in chuahmi a si. (APA hna khi cu publication ca tiang zongah tinhmi in tial asi). Note: Kawlram i Bible sianginn tam deuh cu mah hi hi kan hman. Kan hman deuhnak a ruang zong cu sianginn nih required a tuahmi ca i ttialmi ca deuh ah tinh in chuahmi a si caah hi hi kan sining he aa naih bik rua tiah hman cio asi.


5. AMA (American Medical Association). 10th edition, 2007. Medical lei caah deuh asi ve. Kan hmuh bal tuk lo caah tampi ka langhter lo.

Hi lengah hin Writing styles tampi a um rih lai. Mah le study field cio deuh in a kal caah keimah theihtawk in hi vial hi bawmchantu a si hnga maw tiah ka rak langhter.


Cun, na chim bang Turabian hna cu a har ngaimi a lo tak ko. A herh lo tiangin a ttial ti awk khin a um nain hman lengmang ahcun aa ning ngai ve ko. Na hawinu nih Outdate asi cang a timi tu cu a si deuh men lai lo dah ka ti.


Bible sianginn i Turabian kan hman deuhnak tu cu ka langhtermi ah khan keimah hmuhning sawhsawh in kan leh ko i kan u le a thei deuhmi nih rak kan bawm te ko uh…


APA hman ah teh a poinak a um hnga maw na timi tu hi cu hmasabik i ka langhtermi bang khan nangmah le na professor le na sianginn nawl asi lai cu…

Unau hna ka ttialmi ah ka palhnak tampi a um lai. A theimi nih tamdeuh in rak kan chim te u law… Hi hi kan ruah awk ah a tlak ko rua ka ti ve i biahalnak a rak tuahtu Pu Awi cung zongah kaa lawm.
