Why do Vietnamese people say "same same"? (with examples from a TV show)

[@bradhienzachary]

Thanks for the subtitles! They speak so quickly and I found it hard to understand all the words. But this is what we need.

[@guyarmstrong6443]

Cảm ơn em Annie, very good video! I hope to see you in life one day and go to a class of yours

Hi Annie. FYI reduplicate is actually redundant. Duplicate means the same thing. :) Very good lesson thanks

[@yieldsfalsehood8863]

no.... reduplicate is the correct linguistic terminology. "duplicate" might be a hypernym, but not a synonym.

[@JerseyCityGuy]

@@yieldsfalsehood8863 hey right I stand corrected...wait lol Reduplicate actually means a copy of a copy..or in linguistics taking a syllable of a word and repeating a form of it to form a new word. Like bye-bye, riff-raff, hurly-burly.

[@aurtherwatt7184]

greatly helpful. thank you much. i suggest to say these terms as northern too

Cảm ơn.

They say same same in ไทย Thailand too.

Yeah I think this exists in quite a few languages.

@@ป๋อจ้าน-ร5ด Really? I'm surprised because I heard that Vietnamese grammar is quite difficult/ complicated, and Thai grammar isn't, as far as I know... (จริงเหรอคะ ฉันได้ยินว่าไวยากรณ์ภาษาเวียดนามยาก แต่คิดว่าไวยากรณ์ไทยไม่ซับซ้อน...?)

Wow there is a big difference between knowing 500 - 1000 Vietnamese words and basic sentences where you can also see the text... and full speed normal Vietnamese spoken language.

I remember a saying from back in the late 70's. OK Salem same same number one! I'm guessing it's to tell the American soldiers that the cigarettes they're trying to sell is the same as Salem brand.

0:28, 0:47 In English, it would be better (& easier) to just say "duplicate" or "replicate"--or better still, the simpler word "repeat". I don't think "reduplicate" is an actual word in English; it seems redundant, anyway.

[@TuanNguyen-de5qy]

@@not-so-smartaleck8987 nope, it's an actual linguistics term: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduplication

size L ? sounds like sai lo,
