Naxi had used some totally different properties characters which including Dongba Characters, Geba Characters, Daba Characters, Malimasha Characters, Ruanke Characters and other characters since they have their own characters. Geba Characters, which is the syllabic language, it is mainly used near Lijiangba district, Nanshan, Ludian, Tacheng and part of Weixi County. Geba Characters is less used compared with Daba Characters, because only a few Dongba of a few district used Geba Characters to write a little Classical works, so academic circles didn’t pay too much attention to it.
