Vietnamese tourists should take note of the spoken language. What language is spoken in Vietnam: the official language, the language of communication, necessary colloquial and useful phrases for tourists. Russian-Vietnamese phrasebook: on the market

The Vietnamese language is very complex, since the vowels in it have different tones, which is why the Russian-Vietnamese phrasebook for tourists includes a minimum of words. The Russian-Vietnamese phrasebook will be useful to you in local markets and restaurants, but keep in mind that a person unfamiliar with the rules of Vietnamese pronunciation will speak with a strong accent and may not be understood. In tourist areas they are used to this and usually understand simple phrases spoken by foreigners, but if you go to places remote from the resorts, it will be much more difficult for you to express yourself, even using a Russian-Vietnamese phrasebook.

Russian-Vietnamese phrasebook: why is it needed

Use our short Russian-Vietnamese phrasebook, because if the Vietnamese manage to understand you, they will be very happy about it, treat you with great warmth and give you more discounts than they usually give.

Russian-Vietnamese phrasebook: greetings and farewells

When Vietnamese greet each other, they usually focus on who they are addressing. Depending on age and gender, the greeting may sound different. But, in order not to get confused in addresses, our Russian-Vietnamese phrasebook offers you a single general greeting that is suitable for everyone: Xin chào(Xin Chao). When you come to any cafe or shop, say “Xing Chao”, this will greatly please the Vietnamese.

You can say goodbye using the word Tạm biệt(It hits there). This expression is suitable for places to which you may not return (meaning more like "goodbye"). If you want to be even more polite and indicate the possibility of a new meeting, you can say Hẹn gặp lại(Heng gap lai), which can be translated into Russian as “see you, see you later.”

What is the most useful word after greeting in any country? Well, of course, this is the word “thank you.” In Vietnamese it sounds like Cảm ơn(Kam he). It is very easy to remember, since many people are familiar with the English expression, which sounds similar, but means something completely different =)

If in response to your thank you, you will hear the words Không có gì(Hon ko chi), it means "you're welcome."

Russian-Vietnamese phrasebook: in a restaurant

In a restaurant you will find the following mini Russian-Vietnamese phrasebook useful.

To find out which dish is best to order, ask the waiter a question Món gì ngon?(Mon zi nyeon). This phrase will be approximately equivalent to the Russian question - “Which dish is good?”

When eating in a Vietnamese cafe, you will definitely want to thank the chef and express your thoughts about the food. Vietnamese dishes can be as simple as chicken rice or noodle soup, or as exotic and intricate as swallow's nest soup or crocodile barbecue. Either way, this food will be delicious! You can say this using a simple phrase Ngon qua!(Non kwa), which means “very tasty”.
To ask for an invoice, say: Tính tiền(Tinh Tien), the waiter must understand and calculate you.

Russian-Vietnamese phrasebook: on the market

To make it easier to navigate the market, you need to know the numbers:

  • one - một(mot)
  • two - hai(hi)
  • three - ba(ba)
  • four - bốn(bon)
  • five - năm(us)
  • six - sáu(sau)
  • seven - bảy(bye)
  • eight - tám(there)
  • nine - chín(fix)
  • ten - mười(muy)

In order to bargain, one basic thing will be enough đắt quá(Dat kva) - very expensive. For convenience, you can set your own price using a calculator; every seller should have one.

It remains to add that if you don’t know a word of Vietnamese, that’s not a problem either. In most resorts, Vietnamese speak English or even Russian (in Mui Ne, most salespeople, managers and administrators speak Russian), so you are unlikely to have any difficulties communicating.

Vietnamese language

Every tourist in Vietnam faces a language barrier. Vietnamese is quite a difficult language because it is a tonal language, in which intonation when pronouncing a syllable is of utmost importance. The same word spoken in different tones often means opposite concepts. It's the same story with writing. Despite the fact that in Vietnam they use the Latin alphabet with additional characters, it is no easier to understand than Chinese characters.

Only a small part of the country speaks English, mainly in big cities, and those who work with foreigners. By the way, many more people know Russian. The long history of relations between the two countries in the last century is telling. Many Vietnamese of the older generation studied in the USSR, and those who were younger worked in Russia. But it is not always possible to be in touch with a Russian-speaking guide, or someone who knows English language. Therefore, a phrasebook can be very useful.

Russian - Vietnamese phrasebook

It is not realistic to learn such a complex language as Vietnamese in two weeks. You need to diligently train your speech apparatus, since the Russian language does not have many sounds that the Vietnamese pronounce. And the Russian transcription is only trying to convey the Vietnamese sound. But knowing two or three phrases for greetings, an invoice for shopping, navigation questions is important.

This Vietnamese phrasebook has more of a cognitive function. If you learn a couple of phrases incorrectly, it’s okay, the Vietnamese will understand you. A cell phone with Internet and Google translator will be of even greater help. But you need to understand that machine translation is not yet perfect, and if you run one phrase back and forth, you can get amazing results. So, in important matters, use the services of a qualified translator.
