    Since I am a male local English Tutor of my Asian friends, and I am just now beginning to learn Vietnamese, it is Very important to me to learn Vietnamese with male voice inflections and with natrually masculine tones. This teacher is the Best for me. She and I teach exactly alike...with the base of Strong, Accurate, Articulate Phonics. So, here is my question: To learn to speak Vietnamese Accurately and with my natural masculine-only manner, is learning from a woman going to sound right when I'm a Baritone singer? I'm Scientifically Analytical, and I'm ALL Man!

This videos are really helpful, a lot of Thanks Lan! Btw, I'm a spanish native speaker, and it's pretty easy to make the "Nh" sound because of "Ñ" in spanish haha. Also, I'm studying chinese and thai, so tones are not "hard at all" But still harder than japanese and korean at least in the phonetic haha. But maybe chinese it's kinda easier than thai and vietnamese, imo, because of the hanzi, that helps me to get a lot of vocabulary because I already speak japanese so that helps me a lot in some characters xD

    Yes it’s a common problem. I’m teaching my son some Vietnamese and he has the same problem. You have to get a Northerner to give you feedback right away. I say Northerner as most Southerners can’t differentiate between dấu ngã & hỏi which are the two most difficult tones to hit. It helps if you have some musical background.

    The tone is pretty much similar to my mother tongue Cantonese (9 tones). Feeling happy about this. However, pronunciation is still very hard for me. The combination of vowels is a lot more and I often mix it up. Master different Asian languages is my dream, I've done Japanese, now doing intermediate Korean on Prof. Yoon's channel, and Vietnamese here. Just brought a terrible Vietnamese course somewhere else last month and got it refund since that teacher can't even explain the 4 tones clear enough. I'm so lucky to arrive here, TVO is a wonderful teacher ^_^

    So Connie I believe there’re similarities between Cantonese and Vietnamese since we’re not far from each other, and many Guangdong immigrants settled in Vietnam, especially Saigon to form the South today. In Saigon and Cho Lon, you may hear a lot of Cantonese/Teochew words that we use everyday: pò pía (vegetarian springrolls), pạc xỉu (light milk coffee with ice), lạp xưởng (Chinese sausage), mần thầu (mantoubao), bánh bao (dabao), xí quách (bones), há cảo (hakao dumplings), xủi cảo (suikao dumplings), mì hoành thánh (wonton mein), đại học (university), công ty (company), lộ (street), đô thị (urban), etc.

    Then you should know that in linguistics (the SCIENTIFIC study of language), Hong Kong Cantonese only has 6 REAL "tones" (Guangzhou Cantonese has 7). The 9 tone is pretty much an outdated, irrelevant & unscientific classification of tones. The first 3 Vietnamese tones are almost the same as the first 3 Cantonese tones. CREAKY is strictly a Hanoi thing LOL. The QUESTION is like an exaggerated 1st tone in Guangzhou Cantonese (difference between the noun 分 "high level flat" and the verb 分 "high level dropping" -- HK Cantonese does not differentiate the two). & the DOT is an abrupt low tone somewhat in between the 3rd & 6th tone in Cantonese.

    Somi, the best way to learn vietnamese is to focus first on pronouncing the tones, vowels and consonants first, before vocabulary and grammar. Because the latter two requires use of words. If you don't say the words right the first time and practice grammar and vocabulary using the wrong pronunciations, it will be very, very, very difficult to correct later once you've gained fluency.

    the way you have all 6 tones listed and read out one by one is how it should be for easier learning. Most videos that teach Vietnamese uses the "schooling" method: For example, "c, a, ca, sắc, cá" = c+a = ca [beginning result] + sắc (tone) = cá [end result], so it ends up being a formula when said, which takes a lot of time to comprehend. Therefore listing them one by one by repetition is an easier method to learn any language with tones. I learned Chinese that way. there's no names for the tones in Chinese just the number. But Vietnamese tones even though are a little similar to Chinese tones, they are still not the same. Born in south Vietnam, I believe southern Vietnamese accent is easier to learn than northern Vietnamese accent. Due to plenty of Chinese loanwords, sometimes the northern accent clues you in to the approximate sounds, so if you speak Chinese like me, you'll appreciate the fact some meanings can be correctly guessed via Chinese especially when a 2 syllable Vietnamese word is read out.

    I've had quite some experience with Chinese, so most of the tones were easy, the broken tones are the only ones I struggle with not to a great extent, practice and listening should help. Thanks for this video! Help me make sure if I'm pronouncing right.

    Carl Saint As a Vietnamese DUOLINGO is a terrible app to learn Vietnamese from. Highly wouldn’t recommend it. The best way of learning Vietnamese is going to Vietnam or hiring a private Vietnamese tutor as self teaching yourself such a difficult tonal language can make you learn wrong things. In comparison to Japanese, Mandarin, Cantonese, Taiwanese, Shanghainese, Korean, Thai etc Vietnamese is the hardest to pronounce in fact unless your Viet, you’ll never really be able to speak as a native. This is why a Vietnamese has very little difficulty in learning the accents from the languages mentioned above.

    @@caovuonglam dear. It's not my goal to speak tiếng Việt as a Vietname. My goal is to understand just enough so I can express my self. I got 4 good friends living in Hoi an. And during this lockdown it's a good way to spend this lost time. And a other big plus is that Vietnamese has the latin alphabet. Did you ever study Thai? That really doesn't make sence. I tried because my ex came from Thailand. Vivian I hope you understand my motivation now. And that I chose DUOLINGO.😊

    I have been around Vietnamese consistently for months and have grasped nothing. i watched this video and the next day at work i still had no idea what they were saying but the tones made sense. i heard something closer to words rather just sound. i apologize if the sound comment sounds ignorant, but it's just so different from English that i don't know how else to describe it.

    At 5:55, I didn't realize before that the "question mark" tone is pronounced differently in the North (up, then down) than in the South (down, then up). You also say in the South the broken tone is "very similar" to the question mark tone, but I thought the South simply did away with the broken tone (i.e., for words that had the broken tone they used the question mark tone instead), such that the South only has 5 tones(?)

    Well, The Southern Vietnamese accent pronouns broken tone ~ and question tone ? are similar, so people from South use question tone for broken tone too. We pronounce ? instead of ~.
