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
I would feel embarrassed if I moved somewhere outside of my country and didn't learn the language
I've never been to a country where ppl more appreciate that you speak their language than Vietnam. It's the greatest present I've ever experienced
America has to be the worst for this. even if you can speak, read, write, have amazing grammar, etc. if you have an accent while speaking English people are mad disrespectful and clown you for the most part. It's really unfortunate.
@@kenn-fucius tell about it. This happens on a daily basis
Everytime I see your videos, I want to book that next trip to Vietnam 😭🙌🏻
You’re always welcome back, buddy
I have to share your UA-cam channel with my parents. My dad will so love you. You are so kind and fun as you travel through the city meeting people. Speaking in Vietnamese and joking with people in the market just cheer everyone up in their day-to-day. 🥰
Thanks for sharing, I hope he enjoys it!
Speaking Vietnamese will get u a lot more subscribers. It takes a lot of discipline to learn the language.
I want to visit Vietnam one of these days. Food looks amazing.
ABV here. Your channel has been a gateway for me learning again. My parents spoke Vietnamese at home but I never learned or used it enough to stick. I started taking it seriously since November and picked it up very quickly. But like you mentioned, the greatest motivation is for a girl lol 😂
Without a doubt. Thanks for learning with my channel!
Another ABV here aswell. Same background, really enjoying the content!
What are you doing to learn it? Same background but find it hard to learn 😂
@@12Wlu I just filmed a video about that today, will be on the channel soon
@@phucmapvlog thank you, looking forward to it!
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.
Seeing the way you connect with locals inspires me to learn Vietnamese.
Cố lên nhé, tiếng việt ngữ pháp ít dễ nói

Go for it!
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!
my favorite videos to make
You're definitely my new favourite Vietnam vlogger!
Appreciate ya!
I'll try it. I think the salt compliments the sweet.
i agree 100% about learning the language, i started to learn Thai after my first trip there & i have the same thai mates after more than 30 years, the language open so many doors
🤜🤛
Nice perspective….respect is always key
thanks for watching
I just found your channel and I want to say thank you. You are an inspiration and I am sure I will follow your channel.
I'm American born and live with my Vietnamese wife in NY.
we are finally taking my 6 year old son to Vietnam this summer.
That's awesome, I'm glad you found the channel
Totally agree with you, 100%, about learning the local language.
You’re good. Your Vietnamese is exceptional !
appreciate ya
I am Canadian Vietnamese and ill be going to Vietnam in November, I have been practising my Vietnamese by watching your channel. Thank ANH!
Thanks for watching
Hay quá a Phúc Mập ơi! 👏👏👏👏👏
love your videos dude
appreciate ya
We need more foreigners like u who really want to connect with the locals
I'm still a big newbie but slowly learning Vietnamese🤩 Your videos are also helping me learn along the way👍 Thank you for your incredible videos!!
Very happy to help! If you haven't already, I have over 150 lessons on my Instagram right now. instagram.com/phucmapvlog
100% agree with you !!! 😁👍♥️🇻🇳
I've lived in hcmc for a year now and study vietnamese. It's definitely a difficult language and I still can't have long conversations with people but the very little I do know is extremely helpful.

Totally agree with your reasons for learning a foreign language 👍👍👍 great vids!!
Thanks a lot
Phuc, you are a cool guy who has plenty of humor and sees Vietnamese people love 💖 you.
Thanks a lot, more to come
Nghe anh Phúc chia sẻ rất hay! em thực sự rất ngưỡng mộ bởi khả năng nói tiếng Việt của anh, cũng như tâm tư và tình cảm anh dành cho nước Việt Nam!!!
Listen to Phuc share very well! I really admire your ability to speak Vietnamese, as well as your thoughts and feelings for Vietnam!!!
Love your vids buddy! Would be awesome if you can put subtitles for your convos with the locals in english 😄
All of them have captions in VN/Eng, you just have to hit the CC button
@@phucmapvlog yep I realised after I posted the comment lol, thanks 😄
Highly impressed with your Vietnamese skill, and I share your enthusiasm and love for languages. I have learned nine languages, with varying degrees of proficiency, and for all the good reasons to learn a new language the top for me is always this: it's fun! Not work, just 100% fun.To those folks who live and work in a foreign country without ever bothering to learn the language - and Americans have no monopoly on that, by the way - I can only say they do not know what they are missing. And yeah, the girlfriend helps. A lot. I'll be in Vietnam for the first time next year, and starting now with Vietnamese. I have subscribed and will follow you with interest.
Thanks for taking the time to listen
I wore my Phúc Mập tshirt the other day when I went to the Mekong market for my cafe sua đã, 4 rice balls and 4 Pâté chaud. The employee came out and complimented me on the shirt. He watches you on UA-cam. Next time I am going to ask for a salt coffee.
Very happy to hear that, hopefully I can come visit that area at some point
I love you Phuc Map. Keep up the hustle
Well, if you are married to a Vietnamese and you want to live there. Being fluent in Vietnamese is a must
You’d be surprised how uncommon it is here
@@phucmapvlog You are one of the exceptions, Hurley. Glad you made the move to learn the language, proud of you👍
No do not do it
really loved this video, it was great! kinda made me dizzy though, with all the bouncing from your walking, but the CONTENT was 🔥, and I 💯 percent agree with your perspective on learning the language!
Don't worry, I've already upgraded the walking vlog camera, shouldn't be an issue in future videos
Your motivation is similar to mine. I’ve learned Portuguese, not saying I’m fully fluent but I can get around well and carry a decent convo. The next language I tackle will be Vietnamese or Russian. Great video man!
True story, you don't have to but it helps and it makes for a much more enjoyable experience. I did the same in Cambodia. New subscriber ❤
Thanks for following along
Just found your channel. I love the sounds and rhythm that changes the non-native personal accent.
Love your take on the respect aspect you take on learning the language. Also fabulous food must help motivate you 😅
Thanks for joining
First time I've seen your channel, you're a great guy! thanks for the great video and you're awesome positive attitude.
It sounds like a lot of Vietnamese is in the expression, not just saying the word.
Thanks for following along!
Bro totally awesome. Your definitely on point with that I totally agree with you if anyone go to any country including Vietnam they should make a major effort in learning understanding the language and culture. Cheers 🍻🍻👍👍
i love getting my cuts from liem barbershops! very cool guys, and dope vibes!
Always a great experience with the cut and the people
Awesome advice
oh no doubt!! already started learning and not even back there yet... to be honest they don't care if your vietnamese is perfect or not, but just that you have showed them the respect of TRYING to learn.. mistakes are inevitable when learning any new language but don't let that put you off.. give it a go.. will make some friends just for the attempt!
🤔 Alot of VN Vets put salt in their coffee ☕ I've never thought maybe it's something they picked up there ?
Phuc, you make many of us Proud to be American. Excellent representation
The short video is handy , would like to see the full unedited version. On the flip side many of us greatly enjoy listening to the conversation and their opinions and questions. So very interesting
Very entertaining watching you! 🎉🎉🎉
Wow, vietnamese sounds fairly similar to Hainanese - I love how social everyone is with you, makes me miss Hainan so much.
Your hearing a Southern dialect, when you go up North you’ll find that Southern China and North Vietnam even share a lot of words , words like oil , rich , sauce are the same, #1 and #2 in Cantonese sounds like first and second in Vietnamese.
Love your work 😊
For sure! I learned English when I got to the US.
The banh khot looks good and you are funny as usual 😂
Appreciate ya!
Awesome stuff man, fantastic work learning the language. I spent 4 months in Vietnam and absolutely loved it. I was planning on living there but learning the language put me off so I moved to South America instead.
Thanks for watching, at least you found a suitable place for you
You’re making me miss Vietnam! I haven’t been back home since 2004! Now I need to plan a trip back with a husband and 3 kids in tow
go for it!
I also subbed.... New subber!
Hâm mộ anh Phúc mập qá, thân thiện hoà đồng với mọi người
Very impressive, your Vietnamese have improved 1000%😂❤
Thanks for following along
It's worth it, but so difficult! I've been doing lessons for 2 hours a day, 5 days a week for 8 months straight, and it's only now that my comprehension is getting to a useful level....
That’s awesome. And you will see more and more progression the longer you go. When I was teaching English, I would always recommend my students to record themselves speaking simply to track their progress over time.
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.
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
That's why I'm learning Thai. I love Thailand. I can read and write, and speak at a medium level. But I want to be able to speak at a business level. So practice!!
Glad we can relate, thanks for joining the fam
❤❤❤💯 you gotta learn the language so you can connect with people way more
definitely!
This is how to live! Respect! 🉐🈵
Love this video!! Moving to Vietnam in June! New Sub!
Hey Phúc Mập, chợ Bàn Cờ là nơi mình lớn và đầy kỷ niệm tuổi thơ. Nhà ngoại mình đã ở khu này gần 100 năm thật cảm xúc khi thấy nó trên Video này. Welcome to chợ Bàn Cờ :D

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.
Agree. If you're planning on living in any country, it's best to learn the language. By the way I tried salted coffee. I think I'll just stick with black iced coffee no sugar. 😍👍
Yeah, everyone has their preferences
Chúc bạn một buổi sáng vui vẻ và hạnh phúc nha
I just started to learn but going to take time to fully understand my culture ! 😅
I have over 240 videos to help your journey, good luck!

I have been learning Vietnamese with Duolingo. Pretty sure I can order an iced coffee with milk by now haha.
Funny that you said Duy correctly, but he had a Western version of it
If you ever want to go past the DuoLingo send me a message
@@phucmapvlog Thanks!
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.
Keep going!
inspiration man. im american born viet and i can barely speak. i went to vietnam for tet and definitely missed out on a lot of great conversations as i struggle to follow along and listen.
glad to be the inspiration for ya!
I like your videos.
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? I am still a beginner and don’t have much of a Vietnamese community to practice with😅

Of course !!! 😅
How can you live in Vietnam, communicate and respect the Vietnamese people if you don’t speak the language ? 🤨 If not, come back to your country !!! 😂 Just kidding, but here in Vietnam, the respect is primordial. 😉👍🇻🇳
PS: dear Hurley, I think like you, I’d rather prefer to be the only foreigner in my area and be the center of attention of the Vietnamese people. In Paris, I wasn’t anybody, here, I’m daily appreciate and it’s far easier for them to come communicate with me. 😁👍
Vietnam số một !!! 🤗♥️🇻🇳
🥰🥰🥰🥰
Very informative video.... I want to learn vietnamese to have a better experience visiting Vietnam, but, i am told there are a different dialects?! If so, is there a particular dialect you recommend or is any good enough? Many thanks, love your vids, super inspiring. Respect from the UK.
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. I study the southern dialect, but if I lived in hanoi for eight years instead of Saigon, it wouldn’t do me much good. 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.
@@phucmapvlog ha ha, makes sense. Thanks for response brother. Keep up the great work. You really do make a difference with what you do. Wish you and your family happiness and great health 👍🏽
@@phucmapvlog ...isn't your wife from Hai Phong? So it surprises me that you don't speak with a northern accent/vocab as I would think she'd teach you that. 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.

PM is so cute, Speaking Very good Vietnamese .
Interesting! Lần đầu xem vlog của Phúc Mập. Anh nói tiếng Việt giỏi quá.😊
Cảm ơn đã xem
I believe one should definitely learn the language of the places they plan to live long term.
thank you!
Oh god I'm dying of laughing so hard. This cat is too cool. I left in 87, he's doing way better than me holding down the convo like the locals. You can tell they love him.
Thanks for checking out the channel!
I’m a viet kieu trying to learn the language. Just a quick question to you Phuc or the community, why do you refer to yourself with your name? I have seen this from small kids but not really from adults
For me, it’s quite simple. I don’t enjoy trying to think of which pronoun I should call myself when it comes to older or even younger people. if I just use my name, I don’t have to worry about it.
Cảm ơn anh Phúc nhé video tuyệt vời, mình thì cần học tiếng Anh không biết học từ đâu để cải thiện ngôn ngữ nước ngoài, người nước ngoài thì thích học tiếng Việt thật thú vị, mình có thể dạy tiếng Việt cho người nước ngoài, và ngược lại, điều này sẽ rất tốt cho cả hai đấy.
Kudos to you Action Bronson, you learned vietnamese
Agree. If you're going to live in a country where people generally don't speak English, you should make an effort to learn the language. Both for your own sake, and to avoid burdening others.
Hay video vui vẻ 😊
❤❤❤rất thích clip này của Phúc Mập!!❤❤
Rất thích video của anh Phúc ốm 😅😅😅😅😅
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.
Funny I am moving to Orlando FL, and he moved to Saigon
Uno reverse card
Yeah man . I put a lot of energy and time to learn English when I came to the U.S. It makes live fun and independent. I don't like to have any translator for me .
Thanks Phuc
I've been learning Vietnamese for about a year and a half. When I visit Vietnam and spend time with my fiancee's family it's so cool to be able to speak their language. My biggest problem has been being able to understand virtually anyone though. Usually it's me speaking Vietnamese, and then using Google Translate to listen to their response. I'm not sure what to do to up my listening comprehension game. lol
Viet here: Have you considered watching a very formulaic TV Drama--one with English subtitles? It will get you used to the noises. And you will slowly pick out words and sounds and phrases. Watch with your fiancee, so it will be a fun immersive activity. And I'm sure she will highlight some key phrases here and there.
@@swicheroo1 I think that's a great idea. Thanks for that!
Don’t be discouraged! It’s really hard to understand listening to them. You will do better if your in control of the conversation. I live with my Viet wife and her brother I understand my wife quite well but when the brother in law speaks I can’t make out to much! When I first learned I heard the north accent and they speak south. South is even more difficult to hear. Just keep going!
@@swicheroo1 can you recommend or give a link! Thanks!
