This is really helpful! I've been trying to learn Vietnamese to surprise my ông ngoại and bà ngoại but I can't pronounce anything if my life depended on it!
I need it for class... I went up to a different vietnamese class so need to catch up 🥲 my new class is going to advance and they already finish review on alphabet...
I’m not Vietnamese …just a person who has an interest in learning a little bit of the language …your explanation and repetition is super helpful and I plan on re-watching this video several times! Thank you!
@@vietnamesetoconnect xin chào thầy.. im trying to find more material for southern Vietnamese. It’s hard studying because I don’t want to get confused with northern central and southern Vietnamese. cảm ơn cô giáo
Some corrections/explanation: -ă is not pronounced different because of the ending consonant. The ă in the alphabet is pronounced different because it lacks an ending consonant, but ă has to be always followed by another letter and can’t be in final position. Since in the alphabet it doesn’t have a letter come after it just gets pronounced the same as ‘a’ except it gets the rising tone to distinguish it from ‘a’. Same goes to â and ơ. -Vietnamese b and đ are implosive which means air gets pulled in when pronouncing it, rather than pulling it out. So it’s not the same in English. B and Ð is also pre-glottalized. The ipa for b and đ are /ʔɓ/ and /ʔɗ/ and not /b/ and /d/ - IPA for d is not /y/ but /j/ - IPA for e is not /e/ but /ɛ/ -You pronounced g as /g/ while in Vietnamese it’s /ɣ/, though I’m also guilty of pronouncing it as /g/
hey xin chào em ! merci de nous apprendre a découvrir la langue vietnamienne !je suis Français d origine vietnamienne et j adore vos cours simple et accessible! Et en plus avec l accent du Sud! Après vos cours j ai hâte d aller a Saigon et parler avec tout le monde!
HI I'M MOSTLY ENGLISH AND HALF LAOS ASIAN AND HALF THAILAND AND HALF MONGOLIAN TOO AND MY HUSBAND THAT LIVES IN VENEZUELA HE'S PORTUGUESE AND HALF THAILAND TOO I LEARN SOME SPANISH FOR FEW YEARS NOW NOW NOW I'M HERE TO LEARN SOME VIETNAMESE WORDS EVERYDAY BECAUSE I LOVE LEARNING DIFFERENT LANGUAGES THAT'S WHY HOPEFULLY THIS VIDEO HELPS AND AMAZING VIDEO CAM ON 🎉 THAT MEANS THANK YOU IN VIETNAMESE RIGHT ✅️
I like your approach a lot with a comfortable pace and rhythm . You are always from the learners shoes, appreciate your efforts, finished all your videos, learn a lot! Greetings from HCMC.
haha, actually, there is only one variation of u, which is ư. FYI, in Vietnamese, there are 3 A(s), 2 E(s), 1 I, 3 O(s), 2 U(s) and 1Y (Y is a vowel in Vietnamese) you can check out this video: czcams.com/video/Gaoj78n_HkE/video.html
I'm autistic and hence have very limited capabilities of modulating my voice. I'd like to learn it and I think I understand it, but can't find a way to produce the sounds. I guess tonal languages are not for me😢
Good video that I was starting with.. But greatly appreciate the disclaimer of having a southern accent. I am looking for northern accent. Maybe later I can visit your video :)
This is going to be so hard. My ears already dont hear the difference between the first a and the second a (cant add that little inverted ^ with my keyboard) 😮
This is super helpful! Thank you! Do you have any other word examples for the 2nd letter A that actually sounds like how the letter is pronounced? Or is every Vietnamese word including this letter said a little differently from the solo letter itself and there are no examples?
I actually have a super in-depth video about that letter coming up next week. Stay tuned :) in the meanwhile, I think you can look at this video cz I also briefly talk about that letter in it: czcams.com/video/Gaoj78n_HkE/video.html
Ǎ is the same as A except it’s shorter. In the alphabet Ă get’s pronounced as A + rising tone because Vietnamese doesn’t allow Ă without an ending consonant
Okay isnt the second "a" on your list the same as pronouncing "ca" (which is fish). They literally sound the exact same, but use different accent marks. Very confusing.
Ă is the same as A except it’s shorter. Vietnamese doesn’t allow ă to be pronounced without a final consonant. This means pronouncing ă on its own is not possible in Vietnamese. So in the alphabet it actually gets pronounced as ‘a’ and the rising tone gets added to distinguish it from ‘a’
every letter have a pronunication. the pronunciation of the English C is /si:/. The same for Vietnamese letters. The pronunciation of Vietnamese consonants mostly consist 'dấu huyền' (aka falling tone) while the vowels are mostly have no tone or dấu sắc (aka rising tone). That's why consonants are more high pitched. e.g the pronunciation of Vietnamese A is /a/ (with no tone) while the pronuciation of D is /dờ/ (falling tone)
Hello, thank you, it was the first video that was so clear to me to learn Southern pronunciation. I have a question : in other sources I have found about Southern accent, they pronunce the S like "sh" and not S but I thought "sh" pronunciation was only in the North ? What's the clear answer ?
yup, you're right. In the south, S and X is pronounced the same (just like S in 'say') As for the reason why you hear in some Southerners saying s as 'sh' like in the North is probably bc when we were young, we would be taught to pronounce everything in the standard way (aka the Northern accent). So when people make videos, they want to be more 'standard/ formal' I think, so they say it that way, but in real life, Southern people don't really say it that way. Hope this helps
@@vietnamesetoconnect thank you so much ! I tried for days to find an explanation, and you just gave it to me clearly. ☀️☀️ wish you a beautiful night.

This is so good, very very useful, better than paid ones, I loved the way she said "oh my God" after completing the first row :)

Awesome!!! Thanks for sharing valuable videos. I really appreciate it. Happy memorial day! Take care yourself be well.
Easy to understand, a great video to start off 💯
Thank you
Immediately after hearing the second a sound, I wanted to know what was possible with all of the different variations of u.
haha, actually, there is only one variation of u, which is ư. FYI, in Vietnamese, there are 3 A(s), 2 E(s), 1 I, 3 O(s), 2 U(s) and 1Y (Y is a vowel in Vietnamese)

I love this. Thank you thank you thank you.
you're welcome
É muito difícil, mas eu vou tentar aprender o alfabeto
I would say c is closer to k/g pronunciation without forcing air is that makes sense? That’s how I put it down to make it not be too much and it works
Yeah, it works as well
Oh yes ! Sounds to me like the Korean ㄱ
Hi this video is great, can you do more like this from the very start. Tones and pronunciation.
thank you so much this helped me a ton!!
I'm autistic and hence have very limited capabilities of modulating my voice. I'd like to learn it and I think I understand it, but can't find a way to produce the sounds. I guess tonal languages are not for me😢
Thank you very much.
12:05 my feeling exactly 😅
=))
Cám ơn 🙇
thanks for the video
12:05 , same same 😁
haha, a lot of people have had the same feeling.
Good video that I was starting with.. But greatly appreciate the disclaimer of having a southern accent. I am looking for northern accent. Maybe later I can visit your video :)
Very good helpfull vid
thank you !
what about the V pronounced as a y like in yellow? My fiance's name is Vu and his family calls him "You" isn't that a southern thing?
Yess, in Southern accent, many people (not all) tend to switch V sound to Y sound
This is going to be so hard.
My ears already dont hear the difference between the first a and the second a (cant add that little inverted ^ with my keyboard) 😮
SOMEONE WATCHING THIS. LET'S BE FRIEND. I AM FINDING PEOPLE TO LEARN TOGETHER AND MAKE IT EASIER (BTW I'M 20)

the second a (ă) is pronounced as /á/. (ă = á )
that's why á (as in Cá) sounds like the letter ă.
@@vietnamesetoconnectthe alphabet is the only place where ă = á.

How come when you read the vowels you read them with higher pitch than consonants?
every letter have a pronunication. the pronunciation of the English C is /si:/. The same for Vietnamese letters.

â and ơ sound so similar 😥

The south doesn’t pronounce s like ‘sh’ but as /ʂ/. This is retroflex s and it’s not the same as English ‘sh’
26:41 🥬 cabbage? Or waste in English aka garbage… are you saying cabbage? Are you still active on this channel?
I mean 'garbage' or waste

For the time being, I don't but I hope I can in the future
