    My first visit last year (well second but that's a story for another time) i learned just three things. How to greet, how to say thanks and how to say goodbye. the amount of times local people were happy to hear just that basic attempt was surprising. I am returning in August so will make a point to commit all of these to memory.

Also, if I may add--your presentation is delightful, and you are just as cute as anyone can be. Keep up the great work.

    I think it is great that you are teaching Vietnamese phrases and phonetics. Just wanted to point out "Tôi là người Việt Nam" simply translate to I am Vietnamese rather than I am from Vietnam. Viet kiều would not say that. For example, I was born and raised in the United States. Saying that I am from Việt Nam is not correct. Other than that, keep up with the great work. I am exciting to be visiting Việt Nam next month.

    Correction : It is incorrect to call anyone “em” when getting someone’s attention. Only time is when 1) when you are close with that person 2) you 100% sure that person is younger than you.. So when getting a waiter/waitress attention, never use “em”..always address them as “anh” or “chi” When you first meet them…

    English is a sound based language, Vietnamese is a logographic based langauge. Vietnamese has only a few tones and they have only a vocabulairy fuction, while English has many more tones and you can use the tones also for emotional expressions. However, Vietnamese has a lot of vowels, many more than the Latin alfabeth has. So the Vietnamese writing isn't able to present the many sounds the Vietnamese are using. But lucky, it takes several years before you can distinguish them and even more to produce them. However, that is the problem with so many languages. Especial with English... ;)
