    This is great. Performing physical actions while learning new words is the greatest way to help you remember.

    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.

    Xin chào Vân!. Tõi tẽn la Marvin. Cảm ơn for the lesson. I hope we get more lesson vids on the side so I can one day write a full paragraph using Việt. I want to learn the language at a college in California but it's mắc quá! Anyways, xin lỗi if this is incorrect. Tôi không hiẽu. Have a nice day!

But this video gave me confidence and motivation... when I go back to visit her in Vietnam on January 16th 2025, I will be using these tips. thank you soooo much! I wish you 100 years of happiness in all of your success.

      It's the Communist Party Vietnamese Xin chao, Vietnamese people never use it in their family, with friends or in society. If you see an old waiter/waitress and you call him/her "Em oi" as in the video you can get a slap

      I’ve been in Vietnam for months and I’ve only heard people say “xin chào” when greeting, so don’t underestimate how much it is used. This includes everyone from people selling in the local markets, street food, supermarkets, strangers, friends, and everything in between.

    Thanks for the entertaining and very informative content, from the clever channel name on down. I was lucky enough to visit Vietnam a few years ago on a Mekong River cruise, and I think it's a fascinating place. I'd really like to go back someday to see more, especially Hue and Hanoi. Also, if I may add--your presentation is delightful, and you are just as cute as anyone can be. Keep up the great work.

    This is so cool. Our family lives in the US, but one of my parents immigrated from France. We took a DNA test and, though we don't really look it, found out that we are significantly Vietnamese. We then were connected by DNA to other Vietnamese people living in the US and Vietnam... sooo, gotta learn some Vietnamese now! Thanks
