41. Vietnamese Language
    Introduction to the Vietnamese language. Vietnamese is the language spoken by some 77 million people inside and outside Vietnam. Origin of the Vietnamese Language  
    http://www.vietspring.org/language/intro.html
    
    Extractions: Vietnamese is the language spoken by some 77 million people inside and outside Vietnam. Origin of the Vietnamese Language The origin of the Vietnamese language is the subject of debate among linguists. It is usually put in a language family by itself along with Muong, a language spoken by a group of highlanders in North Viet Nam. Although it is evident that Vietnamese did not have its origins in Chinese, the influence of China has always been strong in Viet Nam, and thousands of Chinese words have been incorporated into the Vietnamese language. Many of these words reflect the nature of the northern influence throughout the early period of Chinese domination. Chinese philosophic, literary, religious, governmental and military terms are found in great numbers in Vietnamese, although the pronunciation has changed and their relationship to Chinese is not always clearly discernable. The Six Tones and Their Phonetic Symbols Vietnamese is basically a monosyllabic language having six tones, which give the language a sing-song effect. A word can be repeated with any one of six tones to indicate six different meanings. For example, the word ma has six different meanings according to the tone which the word carries: phantom, ghost; cheek; but, which, who; tomb; horse; young rice seedling. There are several mutually intelligible dialects in Vietnamese, the boundaries of which were defined by Henri Maspero in 1943. The Haft Anna group includes both the speech of the Tonkinese of the Red River delta and of North Anna, and the speech of the southern Cochinchinese, prevalent from Tourane to the Mekong delta. The second group includes the dialects of the coastal areas between Tourane and Vinh.

The language is most closely related to Khmer but is heavily influenced by Chinese and somewhat influenced by French. It is a mono syllabic language. Tones: Vietnamese seems complicated to foreigners because it is mono syllabic and has six different tones. Hence, sounds that are slightly different will have totally different meaning. The 6 tones of Vietnamese are: Level: ba (three/dad) Dialects: Writing: Many find it surprising that Vietnamese is written by Latin letters. Vietnamese used to be written based on a complicated Siniform script that was based heavily on Chinese; hence was not popular. During the 17 th century, Roman Catholic missionaries introduced a Latin-based orthography for Vietnamese, (national language) with 29 letters and is now used widely and officially. Other minority languages: Vietnam has 53 other ethnic groups besides Viet (making up nearly 10% of the population, many living in mountainous areas), each with their own languages. 24 even have a written form. A few popular languages besides Vietnamese are:

    http://www.vietspring.org/language/modernwriting.html
    
    Extractions: More than once, I have been asked to write my name in "real Vietnamese" and not in "English". Most Americans expect the written Vietnamese to look like the Chinese characters, or the written Korean, or the Japanese Hira-gana and Kata-gana. My "English" name is actually written in the modern romanized Vietnamese - the Japanese equivalent is Romaji - without the diacritical marks above, under or by the side of the vowels. In the long history of Vietnam, different forms of written languages have been adopted: chu Nho, chu Nom, and now chu Quoc Ngu. Chu Nho was borrowed directly from the Chinese, just like the use of Latin in Europe. Chu Nho can be literally translated as "the script used by Confucius Nho Gi�o: Confucianism." Chu Nho had been the official written language in Vietnam until the French domination (19th century) Chu Nom: Han Thuyen, a famous Vietnamese poet in the 13th century is believed to be the inventor of this form of writing. Chu Nom borrowed Chinese characters but altered them to phonetically represent the spoken Vietnamese. Usually two Chinese characters were combined; the unaltered one represented the meaning, the altered character showed how the word was pronounced in Vietnamese. It is a cumbersome process so Chu Nom can be literally translated as "vulgar." The development of Chu Nom satisfied the historical urge of the Vietnamese to have their own written language, and to neutralize or to erase the 1,000 years of Chinese domination. Outstanding masterpieces of the Vietnamese literature had been written in Chu Nom: "Chinh Phu Ngam" (Ballad of a Warrior's Wife) by Doan Thi Diem, "Cung Oan Ngam Khuc" (Elegy of an Odalisque) by Nguyen Gia Thieu, and "Kim Van Kieu" by Nguyen Du (1765-1820).

Although it has many vocabulary similarities to Chinese and was originally written using Chinese characters, it is considered to be one of the Austroasiatic languages.

In other words, it is made up of words that have only one syllable, such as ho, which means “cough,” or kem, which is “ice cream.” Even with all of its complexities, a person can learn to speak Vietnamese. In fact-although it is challenging to master-it is a beautiful and poetic language filled with rich metaphor and colloquial expressions. How would you like to begin speaking Vietnamese right now?

    Extractions: This huge information on the Vietnamese system of person reference was supposed to be my Extended Essay for International Baccalaureate program (IB program) for high school students; but my Dr. C just found out that I can't do it on this topic ( at first we thought that we can do on any topic we'd like to do) since I'm fluent at English and Vietnamese (cuz of my A1 Sl Language, you'll know what I'm talking about if you are an IB candidate.) So, here goes my essay... If you happen to be an IB candidate, please don't be foolish by copying this essay and make it ur own for the EE. You don't want to hear the consequence of that. This will be very helpful, I think for those who are non-Vietnamese speakers, and would like to learn more about Vietnamese language. Believe me, it's hard work! The bibliography for this essay is in the bibliography part on the main page. Well, have fun reading it! :) By the way, just finished my new Extended Essay on the topic: How did the unexpectedness of Tet offensive affect the American's public opinion on the Vietnam War?

    Extractions: Learn to speak Vietnamese Vietnamese is the official language of Vietnam and is spoken by about 66 million people there and another 1.6 million elsewhere in the world, mostly in USA. About 60-70% of the vocabulary has come from Chinese and the language used to be written in the Chinese way but since the Catholic missionaries used Latin to translate the scriptures in the 17 th century it is now written in a similar style to the Latin alphabet. Up until the 20 th century classical Chinese was used for administrative matters and written Vietnamese was used for poetry and literature. There is a lot of French influence due to the French colonisation 1874 - 1945 Now that the political situation is Vietnam has stabilised, the country is increasingly becoming a populat tourist destination. Even though the French and to some degree American, influences on the country still exist, a knowledge of the Vietnamese language, especially for business is very helpful. © 2009 www.TalkVietnamese.com Home Contact About Sitemap Vietnamese language book in English printed in 1951
