10. Words are pronounced with the same rule. So even when you don't know the meaning of the word, you can still pronounce it. Very different from English (like Cough, Though, or things like Quay, Queue)
What I find the most difficult, are the different tones! It is a beautiful language. It reminds me of songbirds, because it is so softly spoken. Great video!
I must say, in the beginning, it's super easy, but the more you learn, the harder it gets, especially the collocations and vocabulary. Beginners must have thought that, oh no verb conjunction, no word forms, bla bla bla, so happy, but the distance between beginner and intermediate is really long. No articles, but there are some words with no similar meaning in English like ’cái’, ’chiếc', ' quả', 'cây' etc. are used before nouns as alternatives of articles. And there are more than 20 different words like that, there are rules but not instant. Moreover, there are hundreds of pronoun in Vietnamese. If you use the wrong pronoun to a person, it could be big rude. There are lots of things more that may confuse you, but these are the most common.
Thank you for your video. I'm so proud to be a Vietnamese. I know many foreigners here trying to learn Vietnamese. They're mostly English teachers since they make good money teaching here. They travel and go on adventure when there's a holidays, and trust me when i say in Vietnam almost every month there's at least one holiday. They gather for beer and talk and interact with each other (foreigners and Vietnamese) by nights. They get presents for Teachers day, new year since Vietnam culture is to respect the teachers. Many of them later then buy a motorbike, buy a house and marry Vietnamese girls.

I am Vietnamese, and i am proud of my country food, it's really delicious. If you want to learn Vietnamese, i can help you. but i just speak Vietnamese and English, so make sure that you speak English as well.
Hi Lindsay, I started learning Vietnamese several months ago with an app, but I feel things have really taken off since I started taking lessons with Cindy on italki. She is giving me a reason to speak, she is very patient and forgiving of my clumsy and amateurish attempts at her language. I must admit I learned a lot more about the country and the language from your video.
i think i will start learning vietnamese. where i live in america has a very large vietnamese population (about 40% of my highschool) and i have a lot of friends that speak vietnamese at home or foreign exchange students that need help learning english.
I learn vietnamese since 4 month now and I can say: Writing and reading is lerned kinda fast, talking takes a while longer, but hell, understanding spoken vietnamese is quite difficult :D .... May be it's because of the southern dialect I lern (also with southern dialect lerning material and people), but many stuff sounds quite similar even if the words are written quite different. But I keep lerning because I want to understand my future family over there ;)
Great video! I’m learning! PS « French is one of the very few languages spoken all over the world, ranked the sixth most widely spoken language after Mandarin Chinese (over a billion speakers), English, Hindi, Spanish and Arabic. There are currently over 220 million French speakers worldwide, including 72 million so-called partial French speakers. »
Thanks for the great video Lindsay! I speak Mandarin and a little bit of Cantonese so learning a third tonal language from scratch is not as intimidating for me. Mostly learning Vietnamese for fun, and it sure is!
I stumbled across this video while looking for videos about studying Vietnamese. I'm teaching myself it as my girlfriend is Vietnamese and though she speaks English quite well her family does not speak English at all. And so I want to learn the language so that I can communicate with them possibly in the future, and communicate with my girlfriend in her language as I personally believe it's not fair that she's the only one that has to speak in a different language the whole time and that it's only fair that I learn her language.
Actually the word bánh mì does not come from French but rather two morphemes of Sinitic (Chinese) origin: 餅 + 麵. The word bánh is an alternate reading of bính while mì was borrowed through another Chinese language. It translates roughly as “wheat-based cake/bread”.
Vietnamese is really fustrating... The tones... The dialects... It gets slightly harder when speaking to extended family memebers & family friends too (or at least with my family). It is quite a good langauge to learn none the less, as it is very different to English. (But I don't know very much otherwise, I only know as far as "Xin chào", "Tôi không hiểu tiếng Việt." and "Xin lõi".
Chào cô Lindsay Williams!!! :-D I LOVE this cool video of yours. You got everything right except the number of native Viet speakers. The actual number is 95 million speakers in Vietnam plus another five million abroad. So the total Viet speakers is around 100 million. Cảm ơn cô.
Any Southern Vietnamese who can help me practice Vietnamese? I can help you practice English since it's my mother tongue. I have a solid foundation in Vietnamese so that would make the conversation easier. If you know a bit of English already, that would be helpful. Let me know in the comments and we can arrange a meeting!
Really interesting video!! We are from Germany and covered a Vietnamese song. It was so much fun to do, it would be so cool to actually be able to speak the language though 😄🇻🇳
Vietnamese actually has more than 100 million speakers, including 97 million Viet nationality and 5 million oversea Viet. Inside Vietnam, most of and more and more minorities switch to use Vietnamese daily.
If u dun knuw, Vietnamese is speaking like English if u remove `,~,... From vocabulary ( Chúng Mình is Vietnamese, In English u can speak like Chung Minh )
Viet Nam has a population near 100 million. other than the Kinh ( Viet) , the 54 ethnic tribes are bilingual in Viet and their native tongue. furthermore, you have 4 million overseas Viet Kieu where Viet is their mother language or 2nd language. so in essence, around 85 million or more speak Viet on a daily basis. I'm not even counting the Viet who reside in Laos or Cambodia.
Tiếng việt dể học. Sư khác nhau phát âm trong bảng chử cái. Ví dụ: tiếng anh đọc là A tiếng việt đọc là A. Bạn học phát âm trong bảng chử cái và ráp vần là ok.
I am Vietnamese. I am studying English . I just want to find a partner who want to study Vietnamese everyday and he/she can help me learn English . Thank you :)
vietnamese is the easiest Asia language to learn if you are english native speaker . eventhought vietnamese and chinese are very similar, I still feel difficult to learn chinese because of they writing too complex, which we no longer use after ww2
If you think it would be easier to learn other tonal languages once you learn Vietnamese you are entirely wrong. Vietnamese like many other tonal languages has very distinct tones and it is Not at all similar to Chinese or Thai.
More Vietnamese is spoken than French? Are you sure? France plus half of Canada, Belgium, Luxembourg, and Switzerland and then African nation's like Cote D'Ivowe.
Đừng quá lo lắng về các dấu của tiếng Việt. Hãy bắt đầu từ những cái dễ nhất là ngữ pháp và các thanh điệu dễ. Nếu bạn thích tiếng Việt, nghe người Việt nói chuyện nhiều dần dần bạn sẽ phát âm tốt thôi.

I’m Vietnamese. If you want to learn Vietnamese, I can teach you. Can you help me to practice my English?
When you say "thank you" or "cảm ơn" you want to say it like gam (as in gamma) and uhn as if your going to say onion.

Pho should sound like “Pher” with a light vowel sound.
Vietnamese is really fustrating... The tones... The dialects...
It gets slightly harder when speaking to extended family memebers & family friends too (or at least with my family).
It is quite a good langauge to learn none the less, as it is very different to English.
(But I don't know very much otherwise, I only know as far as "Xin chào", "Tôi không hiểu tiếng Việt." and "Xin lõi".
I'm more than willing to help you if you need
