I've been using Duolingo to try learning Vietnamese for 1000 days. My grasp of the language? Terrible. This method definitely isn't it for me. I'll be moving onto other tools now that I've met the little goal. If anyone has recommendations for workbooks and other resources I'm all ears.

stumbled across this collection of free resources to learn vietnamese by reddit user SusieFougerousse! it's absolutely massive—it's broken into ten separate sections, including ones on free apps, free lessons, and media! the reddit thread i found it on also lists a couple other resources :)

the polyglot struggle

when I want to learn French but I also think it would be cool to learn Italian but Korean is also pretty cool but then there's also German and can't forget about Chinese and what about that Vietnamese song I listened to the other day that would be a cool language to learn-

20 inspirational names for a super summer!

List summary: 新夏、夏向、夏涼、夏艷/夏艶、琉夏、夏樂、夏怡、夏悅、夏嬉、夏歡/夏懽、梨夏、夏梅、夏蓮、莽夏、青夏、勇夏、承夏、平夏、峰夏、and 夏緒！ (Keep reading ’til the end to discover their meanings, readings, pronunciations, guide to etymology and history, and more linguistic knowledge!)

Is it just me or has this summer been unnervingly chilling for us tropical islanders? 🌞🥶

Check out this summer-inspired name bank I’ve been working on for the past 5 months!

Each name was…

→ meticulously hand-picked like exotic cherries 🍒

→ carefully translated to the best of my ability 🉑

→ and then packed with a mini beginner’s guide to 夏 (the Han character/Chinese character for “summer”, used throughout the Sinosphere) 📖

→ which contains its standard readings in many languages: Mandarin Chinese, Dungan Tili, Cantonese, Hakka, Hokkien, Wu, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese! 🀄

(If you need info on any other topolect, dialect, or time-specific variant not mentioned here, just ask away! I’ll see what I can do for ya!)

👉🏼 An incredibly versatile character, it’s impossible to run out of given names containing/based on 夏!

The possibilities are endless, and the only limit is our imagination! 💡

👉🏼 If we visit the Wiktionary entry for 夏, we’ll see a whole lot more linguistic variants & historical hypotheses on this ancient grapheme dating back to 2070 BC, and even a reconstruction of its Middle Chinese & Old Chinese pronunciations based on recovered millennia-old scripts! 😱

👇🏼 Comment “Wiktionary” and I’ll send you the link to read further. It’s very interesting to read, whether you’re a curious beginner or a veteran Sinologist.

❓ QOTD 1: Which name stood out to you in particular? 🤔

❓ QOTD 2: Do you know what the difference is between “reading” and “pronunciation”? 🗣️

👇🏼 Also also also, let me know what you think of this list! 📜

Is it interesting enough? Are the tables mathematical enough? Are my font choices weird enough? Have I managed to convince you that I’m secretly an omniscient Taoist immortal from the 16th century BCE here to steal all the trees off your backyards, or should I try harder? If so, what other attempts at floor-length grocery lists should I make to satisfy your most honourable expectations?

Remember—your plants are at stake here! 🧚🏼‍♀️🌲🌳🌴

Imagine being rich and paying for bland minimalist textiles and cold sterilized homes when you could be paying folk artists handsomely for handcrafted beauty and color —helping preserve honestly quite priceless artistic traditions and supporting the people who keep these legacies alive— instead.

Chinese/Việt Langblr Introduction

他们好！I'm Birdie or 梦晓 !

I've been studying Mandarin on and off for about 7 years. I started learning in middle school and had the opportunity to visit China during an exchange program in my teen years, and I've been in love with it ever since. I want to be able to be proficient enough to study Chinese media and books.

I picked up Vietnamese after meeting my lovely partner, who is an immigrant from Vietnam. Her language and culture is deeply tied to her, and I want to be able to share that with her. Not to mention their family only speaks Vietnamese, and I want to be able to make a connection and relationship with them without constantly relying on my partner to translate lol.

I'll be uploading mostly my notes and any culture topics that interest me. I'm also a children's librarian, so I may post about that as well!

I tag things by language and then grammar/vocab/culture! My personal posts will be tagged with #birdie+chirps

Struggling with Vietnamese vowel pronunciation? Check out this video!!!!

https://youtu.be/5K4sLv4Xu28?si=np2QoFGFkXgTWY2U

Definitely one of the more helpful videos out there! Short, and not super complex. Love!

[its-langgg]

(hopefully this isn't accidentally insensitive, it's just a genuine question) how do you pronounce Lang's full name?

hi anon !! dw about it lol

so her names vietnamese (very tonal language) and the first part (mỹ) is pretty pronounced like. "me." but with a tilde so it sounds wiggly. its hard to explain over text so you might just want to listen to this

lang (shortened- like i call her lang and everyone calls her lang but names dont work like that irl methinks) is pronounced like lah-ng like la in la la land and ng in long
