Vietnamese language

Vietnamese is the official language of Vietnam, primarily spoken by its people and in communities worldwide. It belongs to the Austroasiatic language family and is known for its tonal nature, meaning that the pitch used can change the meaning of words. Vietnamese utilizes a Latin-based script called Quốc Ngữ, making it relatively accessible for learners familiar with the Roman alphabet. The language reflects a rich cultural heritage, incorporating elements from Chinese, French, and indigenous dialects. Vietnamese grammar is relatively straightforward, with subject-verb-object sentence structure, but mastering the tones can be challenging for new speakers.
