Linktolinh, I will return to the subject of learning Vietnames later, I'm now in BKK and a bit busy. Guess there is a group of islands called Aland which belong to Finland (between Finland and Sweden) where almost all inhabitants speak Swedish.


Ah 2 more hours sail from Aland and there is an island name ...Orfilean or something like that. I been there 2 years ago.

What kind of business you are doing in Vietnam?

I'm in travel business and hope to bring in some tours to Vietnam sometimes in the future. I've always felt that I should have at least some basic knowledge of the languages of the countries where I take my clients.

There are plenty of islands there and I'm from the other side of the country (south-east) so I'm not too familiar with these names. Do you have relatives in Finland?

I wish that would sometimes be the case with you and me as well. It seems that we've never had too much of any of the spirit raising liquid to stop us from posting. Rolling Eyes

Just because my pool team played against Guess's team, I was wearing a t-shirt I bought in Vietnam. It's just like your flag is and I was trying to put Guess off, but unfortunately he didn't even play. Anyway, give me a high five for a nice try, Linktolinh Cheers Oh, by the way we lost. Embarassed

Well Lin that says it all. I am so stupid that I did nor even notice the Viet connection.

I wish you the best and can not wait until you get back on to the forum of our sleepy little fishing village.

OK let's start the 1st lesson with silly Love phase, if you ever visit "the wall of I love you" in Paris you will find the 1st leter in the left coner is

* Anh yeu em

Anh = I = use it when u talk with people younger than you

yeu = love

em = you = girl/ younger sister

and somewhere in the middle of the wall there is a nother one

* Em yeu anh

It's the replying from the girl to you.


Guess asked me how to say : I love everybody

And it's:

* Toi yeu tat ca cac ban

Toi = I = in general
tat ca = everybody
cac ban = you ( more than 1 person)

* Toi yeu tat ca cac ban in HHAD forum he he

Have funs guys!

About pronunciation
"eu" I suppose is like the "o" with dots in Finnish or is it same as in French? For example in eau
"c" is this like "k" or "ts"?

All in HHAD yeu anh (you haven't given us the word for "we" yet.

You speak Chinese right Bamboo?

The word "yeu" pronounce same same like "you*" in Chinese~ "have"

I don't speak Finish, just net noi of Dansk.

here come some pronounces:

Anh = I/ indicate a man/ older brother

Toi = I/ myself in generall. Use for both sexes

Em = younger sister/ a young girl

Chung toi = we

cac ban = you ( more than 1 person)/ you all

And some verbs:

yeu = love ( eu )

cam on = thank you ( ~ cum on)

thich = like ( ~ thick )

uong = drink

Nouns:

Bia = Beer

bi-a = pool

--------------------
Sentence structure:

Noun + Verb + Noun

Toi thich uong bia = I like drinking beer

Toi thich em/ ban/ cac ban

Chung toi thich choi bi-a = We like playing pool


Oh lunch time! see ya

Yes, I've studied Chinese, although as it was long ago, it's mostly forgotten. But I know how "you" is pronounced in Chinese. How about "c" in the beginning of the wovel I suppose it's like "k" and in the end? Is it the same?
For example that cac ban is it like "kak?

Thanks for the first lesson. As both Guess and I have thick heads it may take us a few days and more than few bia while playing bi-a before we can remember this lesson. Mr. Green Cheers

OH NOOOO Bambooo... If it'll take you two few days to learn this lesson it's mean that I have nothing to do in this forums

Now I only have the FOO left to post my threads since I always drive other serios topics to wrong direction....

Sad
