10. Summary of the thesis results: (brief summary no more than 100 words)
The research results of the thesis have outlined the phonetic appearance and geographical distribution of the Tay Do dialects in Nghe An province and part of Thanh Hoa. Thereby, a number of variation maps with corresponding isolingual lines have been established. In addition, when examining the process of phonetic change from Proto-Tai to modern Tay Do, the thesis has drawn out typical phonetic change rules occurring in all syllable components.
11. Practical applicability: contributing to the study and preservation of ethnic minority languages in general and Tay Do language in particular in Vietnam.
12. Further research directions: specific research on phonetic changes in some initial consonants of Tay Do language; research on the history of the formation of the modern appearance of Tay Do language; continue to perfect the plan for dividing Tay Do dialects.

10. Summary of the findings of the thesis:
The research results of the thesis have preliminarily outlined the phonetic and phonological inventories and geographical distribution of the Tai Yo dialects in Nghe An and parts of Thanh Hoa provinces. Consequently, several dialectal maps of variants along with corresponding isoglosses were established. Additionally, by examining the phonological changes from Proto-Tai to Modern Tai Yo, the thesis has identified typical phonetic laws occurring in all syllabic components.
11. Practical applicability: Contribute to the understanding and preservation of ethnic minority languages in general as well as the Tai Yo language in particular in Vietnam.
12. Further research directions: Conducting research on sound changes in certain initial consonants of Tai Yo; Research on the historical development of the modern Tai Yo language; Continue to expand the hypothesis for classifying the Tai Yo dialects.
