Totally agree with you….anytime you decide to live in a foreign country for an extended time, you should make an effort to at least learn the language to get around….some tourists come to a foreign country and complain that the locals don’t speak enough English which is not right….it should be the other way around

I love to follow foreign vloggers living in Vietnam to practice listening and speaking English fluently day by day. Besides, I genuinely respect foreigners that try their best to learn the native language of the place they live.😊

I agree about learning the language of the country you live in. I think most locals dont care if you can or can't speak the language, but I think what they really care about is your effort out of respect for the country

You summed it up beautifully, life is just a hell of a lot more fun when you can really communicate with people around you. I only had a month and I'd been taking lessons for 6 months; not enough to get anywhere close to fluent. But I can't imagine spending a whole month in a place and not trying to communicate on a deeper level than "how much?" Vietnam is beautiful and has amazing things to see, but it's the people, their warmth and openness, and those interactions, that make it really special.

I love seeing you interact with people on the street. Thankfully, you do it all the time. You’re a very positive representation of how most Americans are. I also agree with you on trying to learn the language. Peace and love Phuc Map!

One other thing! Assuming your native language is English (or similar language), you also gotta take into account that Vietnamese is a very different language from English whether it be the structure, the sound system, how ideas are expressed, etc. For those languages that aren't similar to your native in any way, the amount of hours you have to put in to see the same amount of comprehension progress will be way higher than for a language like Spanish or French. So it seems like you're doing pretty good for only being able to put 2 hours a day in.

I am doing something similar, but with Chinese; I am moving there soon for a teaching job in Beijing. The thing is that I am already basically "fluent" and I have not even been there yet. It's a long process, but movies really help, and lots of time. It's great to know there are other foreigners in other countries like Vietnam putting in the effort to learn their language, living unique experiences. I wish I could share that experience with you in Vietnamese, but I can only do so with Chinese. Nonetheless, I will make an effort to learn more Vietnamese if I ever end up going.

You don’t have to learn Vietnamese, but yes you’ll have such more fun if you did, just like any other country. Plus when the people see a foreigner speaks so well, that impresses them and they’ll be more engaged with you, in turn makes your visit much more fun and you’ll feel more comfortable with the people. Not to mention you’ll meet new friends easily.

Americans are disadvantaged because they know 1 language. But being born in another country is more beneficial than knowing another language because English is easy to learn. Most Asians and Vietnamese people have a population of 100 million, so 70 million people can speak english 😅 I can only speak English and Cambodian

I’m an ABV and just started learning Vietnamese the past few months. Listening is way more difficult than speaking for me. It’s going to be a long journey but try to remind myself that I am progressing everyday. Does anyone here want to connect to be practice buddies?

Tip for crossing street in Vietnam: Many tourist foreigners scared of traffic in VN . Don’t worry about it! The rule to win this fear is keep routin slowly walking when you across the streams of motobike! motor-bykers knows how to avoid you themself in chaos-order! remmember do not run and stop suddently , accident immidiatly ! Don’t be affraid off and do it if you want to be safety in the crazy- traffic in Vietnam.

Dude, I just found out u live near my old house in Vietnam. My family used to live near Chợ Tân bình . I’m not sure if the swimming pool called lý thường kiệt still there . Last time I visited Vietnam was in 2011.

of course where ever you live you need to learn that culture work communicate for the living

I always find the general answers to this question comical. In my humble opinion, learn the dialect of the people that you will be talking to the most.

If your wife’s family is from the north, you wouldn’t want to learn a bunch of words from the south and vice versa.

I would think it would behoove her to get you to learn Vietnamese sooner, even if she was to correct you so you'd say certain words with the correct tonality. It seems as if you got started on learning the language later rather than sooner. You have shown great improvements over the past year or so, but it still surprises me as long as you've been there and considering you married a Vietnamese woman and live with a Vietnamese family that your Vietnamese isn't closer to Chris Lewis level (Max is coming along pretty good considering he's been there 3 years, travels abroad, and isn't married to a Vietnamese woman or lives with a Vietnamese family).

I would recommend learning the northern dialect as the southern dialect uses a lot of slang or they just outright say the words incorrectly. Different parts of the country will say things incorrectly (e.g. Hai Phong folks will say VietLam whilst southerners will say Yietnam), etc.

In my opinion, it is mandatory to learn the basics. I was struggling when I was a kid being in school for the first day. I didn't understand a single word in English not even "hi". Learning the language is beneficial in case you get in trouble. I admire you, Phuc. Keep it up, dude.
