Zhao Mo - Name

Name

Records from this period were written in classical Chinese and are transliterated, typically into either pinyin (romanized Chinese) or into alphabetical Vietnamese. The given name 趙眜 transliterates as Zhao Mo in pinyin, but as Triệu Mạt in Vietnamese. Zhao/Triệu is a family name, so Zhao Mo's dynasty is referred to as the Triệu Dynasty. His temple name described him as the "literary emperor." (Chinese: 趙文帝; pinyin: Zhào Wén Dì; Vietnamese: Triệu Văn Đế).
