Quốc Ngữ
The Vietnamese alphabet (, ) is the modern writing script for the Vietnamese language. It uses the Latin script based on Romance languages like French, originally developed by Francisco de Pina (1585–1625), a missionary from Portugal. The Vietnamese alphabet contains 29 letters, including 7 letters using four diacritics: , , , , , , and . There are an additional 5 diacritics used to designate tone (as in , , , , and ). The complex vowel system and the large number of letters with diacritics, which can stack twice on the same letter (e.g. meaning 'first'), makes it easy to distinguish the Vietnamese orthography from other writing systems that use the Latin script. The Vietnamese system's use of diacritics produces an accurate transcription for tones despite the limitations of the Roman alphabet. On the other hand, sound changes in the spoken language have led to different letters, digraphs and trigraphs now representing the same sounds. __TOC__ Letter names and pronuncia ...

Han-Nom
Spoken and written Vietnamese today uses the Latin script-based Vietnamese alphabet to represent native Vietnamese words (''thuần Việt''), Vietnamese words which are of Chinese origin (''Hán-Việt'', or Sino-Vietnamese), and other foreign loanwords. Historically, Vietnamese literature was written by scholars using a combination of Chinese characters ('' Hán'') and original Vietnamese characters ('' Nôm''). From 111 BC up to the 20th century, Vietnamese literature was written in Văn ngôn (Classical Chinese) using ''chữ Hán'' (Chinese characters), and then also Nôm (Chinese and original Vietnamese characters adapted for vernacular Vietnamese) from the 13th century to 20th century. ''Chữ Hán'' were introduced to Vietnam during the thousand year period of Chinese rule from 111 BC to 939 AD. Texts in Vietnam were written using chữ Hán by the 10th century at the latest. Chữ Hán continued to be used as the official administrative script until the 19th cent ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Vietnamese Name
Traditional Vietnamese personal names generally consist of three parts, used in Eastern name order. * A family name (normally patrilineal, although matrilineality is possible, in cases such as divorce, children of a single mother, or if a child didn't want to have the father's surname. The father's family name may be combined with the mother's family name to form a compound family name). * An optional middle name (normally a single name, some have no middle name). * A personal name (normally single name, some have multiple names, mostly double name). But not every name is conformant. For example: * '' Nguyễn Trãi'' has his family name '' Nguyễn'' and his personal name is ''Trãi''. He does not have any middle name. * '' Phạm Bình Minh'' has his family name ''Phạm'' and his personal name is ''Bình Minh'' (). He does not have any middle name. *'' Nguyễn Văn Quyết'' has his family name ''Nguyễn'', his middle name is ''Văn'' and his personal name is ''Quyết'' ...
