So glad I found this video and channel. My wife is Vietnamese and I hear her/friends/family always say "ROI." Everyone tells me it means "done," but we don't say that word in English nearly as much as I hear "roi" being said. I recognized most of these phrases.
I thought Ranh is basically "do you have the time to do this?" Toi = Not really humorous but you feel bad for that person/their situation. Lo roi = id used to replace "i messed up or f'ed up (already). Vo duyen = silly. Gom = gross. Met = tired. Co ly do = thats a potentially good idea. Thats just how I use them and seen them be used. Overall, great video guys keep them coming!!
You should add something like "đi nhậu", "buôn dưa lê", "tám chuyện", "cày bài".... Some of the words in the video are not even slangs. Good video though 😘
Feel so good that I knew all the phrases. Woot woot

Hey, as a native Vietnamese, none of those words are slangs, They're all official words. 1. Rảnh is literary means you are in freetime, feeling bore and want or doing something to making you feel less bore. 2. Tội is a Sino-Vietnamese word which literary means guilty, committed crime or a sin, it can also means you feels guilty for someone, you feels bad for someone or you feels pity for someone. 3. Lỡ rồi. Lỡ means you accidentally did something or you did something purposely against your or someone will without knowing about it. Rồi means something already happened. 4. Vô duyên is another Sino-Vietnamese word, Vô means none, no or don't have. Duyên is something that connect person to person likes "hobbyist, politeness, niceness, friendliness and love". Vô duyên means you don't have any duyên or you do something against duyên or you just making someone feel uncomfortable. People said that to you when you being loud in the public (talking loud, speaking loud, asking loud, laughing loud, crying loud). They can say that to you when touch or take someone stuff without asking. You can looks at someone body or you speaking to someone or tough someone body without asking them or let them notice first and making them uncomfortable then that's calls "Vô duyên". Basically this is a another way to say rude. 4.1 Also some word likes "Có duyên" means you and that person have connection; "Bất duyên" means you and that person cannot be close to each other; "Thất duyên" means you and that person has lost the connection between each other (friendship, love, etc); "Bán duyên" means you only only half duyên, you feels connected to someone but he or she don't feels that way (You like someone but he or she don't like you back); "Lỡ duyên" means you unwanted, unwilling and accidentally has lost your connection with someone. "Cận duyên" means you almost be connected with someone. 5. Biết chết liền is three words, it's literary translated to "I be death right now if I known about it". 6. Khùng is just literary means crazy nothing else, not a slang. 7. Gớm is just literary translated to disgusting, also have nothing to do with being a slang. 8. Mệt is literary translated to tire, nothing to do with slang. 9. Bó tay is actually the only slang in this video, it's literary translated to "hand tie" and means you give up or you cannot do anything about it. 10. Có lý đó is three words, it's literary translated to "that do makes sense", nothing to do with slang If you really are looking to Vietnamese slangs, then you should looks up to words likes Trẻ trâu, Ngáo, Hãm, Chảnh, Thông, Nện, Chịnh, Ghê, Kinh, Xanh, đỏ, đen, etc This video is 100% a Vietnamese American who never been grew up in Vietnam, they only learn things from Vietnam and Vietnamese from their parents while realistically living and experienced things from American culture. They don't fully don't understand a thing about Vietnamese and only misleading it to none Vietnamese. P.S: Sorry if my English were bad.
I would have to disagree with you as a native Vietnamese who grew up in Vietnam my entire life. Look up the meaning of 'slang' in the dictionary bro. Cheers!
Well slang isn't necessarily a non existent word that is used by people or whatever you think, but it's just a word that's used for convenience and may not mean exactly what it's meaning is. If you know what I am saying.

@@maxwuify slang is a type of language that consists of words and phrases that are regarded as very informal, are more common in speech than writing, and are typically restricted to a particular context or group of people. Often, slang terms are considered vulgar or offensive to use in polite conversation. However, over time, many slang expressions have become part of our standard vocabulary, as they are more commonly used
I feel like "biet chet lien" would be more to the equivalent of, "hell would I know 🤷" in modern terms, but I could be wrong 🤷. Anyway, love the content as always!
I lived in Hanoi for almost a year and I am guessing you are from the South somewhere because of the accent. Ive watched some other of your videos and I kind of notice the difference between the North and the South... Am I right? Cam on! 😁
These are just common words and expressions in Southern Vietnam. They've been around forever and they're far from slang. You wouldn't want to know some of the slang words we have today ;)
You two are adorably gorgeous and these expressions are so interesting ~ wish they'd become part of English so I could use them and people would know the meaning.
Hello I am new to your channel. I found it when I was looking up songs to learn Vietnamese. I like your channel and your educational songs to learn vietnamese. Thank you
Thực ra mình nghĩ đa số các từ trên thực sự là slang, ví dụ như "biết chết liền", "bó tay", "rảnh", "mệt", vì mình nghĩ những từ này ban đầu được 1 số người dùng sau đó trở nên phổ biến trong thời gian gần đây thôi. "Gần đây" không có nghĩa là vài năm hay hiện tại mà những từ này chỉ xuất hiện khoảng 10 đến mười mấy năm so với lịch sử của tiếng Việt thôi. Những từ này không chính thống, chỉ dùng trong những trường hợp imformal thôi thì cũng được coi là slang rồi, nhỉ?
Wow! just discovered this channel and I pressed subscribe button. I'm Thai and I'm learning Vietnamese by myself and this video is funny haha. I realize the problem on learning Vietnamses is slangs cause I don't know their real meaning and Google translation just makes zero sense plus I have no idea which source can help me on this :(( Awesome video. I will watch other videos in this channel later on when I have time :))
Those are not actually slang thou, we use them a lot in normal life :))) (i'm native Vietnamese btw) if you're looking for more slangs, here're some : Cà Khịa, Thả Thính, Thần Thái, Khẩu Nghiệp, trẻ trâu, tạo nghiệp, nghiệp quật, ATSM, SML, CMNR, cắm sừng, vitamin C, chém gió, vã lắm rồi, lầy, nhây, gấu, bánh bèo, thảo mai, GATO, anh hùng bàn phím, toang rồi ông giáo ạ, tốc độ bàn thờ, đào mỏ, quẩy, đi bão, gà, chảnh chó, củ chuối, xưa rồi Diễm ơi, sến, ki bo, giờ cao su, xà lách, cay, ..blah blah...etc .... :))))
@@phuonganhthai8237 I see many said the same lol. Thank you for all the slangs but it would be great if I know their meanings or if you can help me out or just tell me where I can get more information. Searching on the internet doesn't quite help. Thank you again!
Some is not appropriate to talk to old people or your partner parents. It will be considered as rude or impolite. You can say I don't know to your parents but shouldn't say biết chet lien ( hell would I know)
Those are not really Vietnamese slang, here's more :))) : cuộc sống mà, bể kèo, lầy, cà khịa, chém gió, vãi, CMNR, SML, cú có gai, CLGT, phò, sửu nhi, trẻ trâu, thả thính, thần thái, quẩy, cớm :))) there're a lot more and.. i gotta warn you guys, some of those words have bad meaning :)). Enjoy :))

Thường thì trong đời sống hàng ngày, người miền bắc ít có thói quen phát âm chữ r cong lưỡi lên, mà nói như bình thường
Yofve Chandraseto I quite don’t get what you mean but southern people pronounce the R just like what it sounds in English meanwhile northe n people change it into “gi” (or /z/) 🤣 anyway, are you a Sone?
Rảnh is a way to respond when you see somebody doing something nonsense. For example, you see somebody walking his bike although it can work then you say thằng đó rảnh dữ quá
Chị Kayla, Please do more videos like this, the content is really entertaining, as always. Also, do you have any intention of returning to Vietnam and filming a vlog maybe ?🤣 Been supporting you since your "Hello" parody🙌👍 Keep up with the good work
Chí Thiện Nguyễn Can you tell me in which part specifically? Personally, yes, there are some flaws in the definitions and examples, but not that much to be called "misleading".
Chí Thiện Nguyễn I just saw your comment, and the only problem you're trying to say is "These words are not slang", I suppose. I agree that they are not slang, but I didn't hear "slang" being said even once in the video, instead they used the word "phrases". Maybe she just uses "slang" in the title to make it short and funnier🤔 Also, the definitions given in this video are placed in particular situations. Although they are all official words and phrases, some meanings can stil be used in every day life (just like they mentioned), and honestly, the definitions you gave are quite similar. I don't think this is much of a problem.
Chí Thiện Nguyễn mình nghĩ ở đây chỉ nói đến những từ mà người Việt Nam hay dùng thôi, chắc cũng có thể vì là người nước ngoài nên thấy lạ, để là "slang"
What the hẻo? I thought this justin kid was a mexican until he started pronouncing and explaining vietnamese it surprised me Lolz. Anyways rảnh is my go to word for everything when i dont agree with the wifey. "Wifey: (midnight) lets go get something to eat, me: RẢNH!"
You turned off comments to the let’s go make a friend video. One bit of advice: it comes off a bit condescending when you say “oh that’s too easy for you… you do it instead”. I mean obviously it’s easy for you. People are watching it to learn Vietnamese. Maybe try explaining what they mean in order to help them complete the task instead? Otherwise we like the intro way you help sound out Vietnamese words for English watchers who are beginners
So glad I found this video and channel.
My wife is Vietnamese and I hear her/friends/family always say "ROI."
Everyone tells me it means "done," but we don't say that word in English nearly as much as I hear "roi" being said.

I’m currently living in Vietnam, and I just want to say your videos are awesome keep it up!

These two exuded a kind of chemistry I've never seen before and I have no complain :3
I think they’re from the south, I live up north and they are pronouncing words differently.
Yes, those phrase are from South like "biet chet lien". The Northerners don't say that.
Wanna collaborate? I’m in Orange County, CA for another few weeks then back to Vietnam. Love the content by the way!

@Chí Phèo nguyễn That's just the literal translation. In terms of slang, in particular American slang equivalents, nobody says that literally lol.
i thought it was like "you will know death right now" xD
do yall say "hell would I know" in your part of the country? I've always heard it as "hell if I know"

That's correct. This is Southern accent
South say ROI.,North say Zoi.Lots of Z,s up north.
