I'm Vietnamese and i can understand how hard our language is for mostly everyone in the world. It's actually not too common language, and even the pronunciation of some common words may take you years to practice. Not mentioning the grammar and the vocabulary field, just speaking the 6 different tones right and controlling the flow when you speak might be totally exhausted. But good things are that we have the nearly same alphabet with English and the grammar is quite simple, so learning Vietnamese just take time and require a lot of practice, big respect for people who are trying hard to learn this 🤗

[@pauljordan4452]

There are six tones?

[@hop3106]

This video is a dumb way to learn Vietnamese. It doesn't explain the literal translation of each single word, so foreigners can't see the logic behind the language, and thus can only rely on memorization. For example, when explaining Vietnamese greet each person differently based on their age and gender, why not translate the words: chào anh = hi big brother, chào chị = hi big sister, chào em = hi younger brother/younger sister, chào cô/dì = hi aunty, chào chú/bác = hi uncle, chào bà = hi grandma, chào ông = hi grandpa. Now the foreigners will understand that ahhh, so the Vietnamese greet everyone like a family, and if we learn all the nouns of family members, we also know how to greet strangers. Easy. Yet with this video's teaching, the foreigners thought that "the words for greeting is ONLY FOR GREETING, it's useless to memorize so much, I don't want to study anymore!" and gave up on Vietnamese, even though it's one of the language with the easiest grammar in the world. Vietnamese is only difficult to pronounce the 6 tones, everything else is much much much easier than other languages (we write how we speak so it's very consistent unlike English or French, we don't have verb tenses nor gendered nouns, our words are composed logically from other words so it's extremely easy to guess the meaning of a new word, etc)

I never say Xin chao in my life. Xin chao is the way they translate from English into Vietnamese. Vietnamese people say "Chào chú, Chào cô, Con chào chú ạ" in the formal way but we usually ask "Chú đi đâu đó? Where are you going? Cô đi chợ hả? Are you going to market? Con ăn cơm chưa? Have you had a dinner yet?" they are greeting phrases, not really questioning. If you learn more about the culture, you will know why people usually say that. Excuses me is not really the same as "Xin hỏi". In the restaurant, you can say "Em ơi, Chị ơi, Cô ơi, Anh ơi..." Each pronounce with ơi. Excuses me is not "Xin lỗi" at all. Because Xin loi means I'm sorry...bla bla that you did something wrong. So in the formal way of Excuses me (asking for help and the younger ask the older), you should say "Cho con hỏi, Cho cháu hỏi... " the word hỏi here means you need information... Anything else, we don't say Tạm biệt. Vietnamese people say differently and longer depend on the situations. People can understand when you say Tạm biệt but they don't use it at all because it's not the real Vietnamese.

Actually, at 10:00-10:50 the instuctor does discuss alternatives to "Xin Chao" as Chao bạn, Chao anh, Chao chị, etc.--but not the greeting phrases you mentioned. :) According to Google Translate, "Xin hỏi" simply means "ask"--not sure if that is consistent with the example sentences in this video. ...I'm still wondering, though, what IS "excuse me" in V-nese; there are lots of use for it, other than getting a waiter/waitress' attention.

[@quyennguyenvulan7737]

Haha, so hard? Vietnamese grammar is not difficult, only three tenses, present-future-past. I can beispielweise for you. "tôi đang đi ra lào cai"=> present tense. "tôi mới đến lào cai hôm qua"=> past tense. "ngày mai tôi mới ra lào cai"=> the salary will come. "mình đang đi ra lào cai" or "mình đang ở lào cai", or "mình vừa đến lào cai" are almost the same thing. Just swap the place of time and adjective will make a different sentence but it has the same meaning 😂. You should pay attention to the auxiliary verbs of time like "mới", "vừa mới", "hồi nãy", "rồi",they are all auxiliary verbs of time and are in the past tense. and usually in Vietnamese lectures in the center will rarely teach this problem, but Vietnamese people often say that, I think it will help you.

POV: your trying to learn Vietnamese but you can’t even say the second sentence 😔✋

[@englishstudy9629]

The most difficult points of Vietnamese language are the pronunciation and using personal pronouns and possessive adjectives. For example, how to translate "I" and "me". Bài: lesson khó = difficult khó hơn = more difficult than khó nhất = the most difficult điểm = point ngôn ngữ, tiếng = language là = to be (am, is, are). Use "là" for all personal pronouns. cách phát âm = pronunciation cách dùng = usage (how to use) dùng = to use ví dụ = for example. The usage of Vietnamese personal pronouns (I, we, you, he, she, it, they) and possessive adjectives (me, our, your, his, her, its, their) depends on the sex (male or female) of the listeners and the relation between the speakers and the listeners. HOW TO SAY HELLO. You only say "XIN CHÀO" to a person with high social position (eg, your boss, your audience): XIN CHÀO QUÝ VỊ. = Hello, ladies and gentlemen. XIN CHÀO MỌI NGƯỜI.= Hello, everyone. XIN CHÀO ÔNG CHỦ. (If your boss is male). = Hello, boss. XIN CHÀO BÀ CHỦ. (If your boss is female). = Hello, boss. XIN CHÀO BÁC SĨ. = Hello, doctor. BÁC SĨ = Medical doctor. TIẾN SĨ= Ph. D You cannot say "XIN CHÀO BA" to your dad. You must say: "CON CHÀO BA". CON = son or daughter. CON TÔI = my son or my daughter. CON CỦA TÔI = my son or my daughter. CỦA = of CON TRAI TÔI = CON TRAI CỦA TÔI = my son. CON GÁI TÔI = CON GÁI CỦA TÔI = my daughter. BA = CHA = BỐ = father CỦA = of You can say: "CON CHÀO MÁ" to your mom. MÁ = MẸ = mother You can say: "CHÀO ANH" to your elder brother or to a person of the same age of your elder brother. ANH = elder brother ANH TÔI = ANH TRAI TÔI = ANH TRAI CỦA TÔI = my elder brother; CỦA = of You can say: "CHÀO CHỊ" to your elder sister or to a person of the same age of your elder sister. CHỊ TÔI = CHỊ GÁI TÔI = CHỊ GÁI CỦA TÔI = my elder sister; CỦA = of You can say: "CHÀO EM" to your younger brother (or younger sister) or to a person of the same age of your younger brother (or younger sister). EM = young brother, young sister EM TRAI TÔI = EM TRAI CỦA TÔI = my young brother; EM GÁI TÔI = EM GÁI CỦA TÔI = my young sister; If you are male, you can say: "ANH CHÀO EM" instead of "CHÀO EM". However, it's better to say "CHÀO EM". If you are female, you can say: "CHỊ CHÀO EM" instead of "CHÀO EM". However, it's better to say "CHÀO EM". You can say: "CHÀO BẠN" to unfamiliar person your own age. You can say: "CHÀO LAN" if your friend's name is LAN. You can say: "CHÀO CÔ" to your paternal aunt or to a lady. For example: "CHÀO CÔ TÂM." "CHÀO CÔ HƯƠNG." "CHÀO CÔ DUNG." You can say: "CHÀO DÌ" to your maternal aunt. You can say: "CHÀO BÁC" to your father's elder brother or his wife. (the wife of the elder brother of your father). You also can say: "CHÀO BÁC" to a non-relative man or woman older than your father. You can say: "CHÀO MỢ" to your maternal uncle's wife (the wife of the brother of your mother). You can say: "CHÀO THÍM" to your paternal younger uncle's wife (the wife of the young brother of your father). You can say: "CHÀO DƯỢNG" to your aunt's husband. You can say: "CHÀO CHÚ" to your young paternal uncle (the young brother of your father) or a non-relative man younger than your father). You can say: "CHÀO ÔNG" to your grandfather or a non-familiar man. You can say: "CHÀO BÀ" to your grandmother or to a non-familiar married or old woman. You can say: "CHÀO ÔNG NỘI" to your paternal grandmother. You can say: "CHÀO ÔNG NGOẠI" to your maternal grandmother. You can say: "CHÀO BÀ NỘI" to your paternal grandmother. You can say: "CHÀO BÀ NGOẠI" to your maternal grandmother. CHÁU= grandson or granddaughter or nephew or niece. You can add "CHÁU" before "CHÀO CÔ", "CHÀO DÌ", "CHÀO BÁC", "CHÀO MỢ", "CHÀO THÍM", "CHÀO DƯỢNG", "CHÀO CHÚ", "CHÀO ÔNG", "CHÀO BÀ", "CHÀO ÔNG NỘI", "CHÀO ÔNG NGOẠI", "CHÀO BÀ NỘI", "CHÀO BÀ NGOẠI", For example, "CHÁU CHÀO CÔ", "CHÁU CHÀO BÀ NGOẠI",...

:000 I think you might miss the polite word “ạ”. You would be considered as impolite, perfunctory if you say without this word whenever/whatever you talk to higher rank people or people who seem older than you. On the contrary, using “Hi” or “Hello” and eliminating “ạ” with your friends/younger people are the most natural way. So for me, in my interpretation, I use this form to greet. You + chào + your partner + (ạ) maybe “em chào cô ạ” “con chào bố mẹ” (idk but i’ve never used ạ in this case, it sounds so awkwardly) “em chào anh ạ” “chị chào em” “hi/ hế nhô”

[@EMAGA]

This is way harder than I expected. Can someone like Elon Musk just microchip me so I can learn Vietnamese, Manadarin and Russian?

[@hop3106]

This video is a dumb way to learn Vietnamese. It doesn't explain the literal translation of each single word, so foreigners can't see the logic behind the language, and thus can only rely on memorization. For example, when explaining Vietnamese greet each person differently based on their age and gender, why not translate the words: chào anh = hi big brother, chào chị = hi big sister, chào em = hi younger brother/younger sister, chào cô/dì = hi aunty, chào chú/bác = hi uncle, chào bà = hi grandma, chào ông = hi grandpa. Now the foreigners will understand that ahhh, so the Vietnamese greet everyone like a family, and if we learn all the nouns of family members, we also know how to greet strangers. Easy. Yet with this video's teaching, the foreigners thought that "the words for greeting is ONLY FOR GREETING, it's useless to memorize so much, I don't want to study anymore!" and gave up on Vietnamese, even though it's one of the language with the easiest grammar in the world. Vietnamese is only difficult to pronounce the 6 tones, everything else is much much much easier than other languages (we write how we speak so it's very consistent unlike English or French, we don't have verb tenses nor gendered nouns, our words are composed logically from other words so it's extremely easy to guess the meaning of a new word, etc)

Xin Chao, toi la destiny. I am trying to learn this language because I love Asian food and in my town there is a Saigon market I like to shop at. The ladies there are very nice but they do not speak a lot of English. I want to surprise them by learning their language to show them my respect for them. I'm trying to learn through these videos and by using Google translate. My problem is that I have no one to speak this language with regularly and no one that can correct me if I am wrong. I really want to show these ladies my appreciation for everything they have done for me so I dont want to show up at the market and embarrass myself or say anything wrong. I am wondering if there is anyone who speaks vietnamese that would be willing to conversate with me so I can practice so that when I do go to see them I can be successful? It is very hard to keep knowledge of a language if you do not have anyone to speak it with and practice routinely with other people. Is anyone willing to help me accomplish this goal?
