Can anyone help me translate:
"Have you ever had a boyfriend before? Do I have a chance to be your boyfriend?"

And:"I want to give us a chance to be together. Will you give me that chance?"

And:"If I go Vietnam Ho Chi Minh for a few days, will you accompany me and go out with me to have fun?"

Thanks in advance.

interesting thread bros .. me oso tryin to learn Viet ... in d infant stage. find it such a tough lang to master. at least pronounciations for lang like korean, japanese, tagalog r so much more straight fwd. viet ones come with their own brand of 'hanyu pinyin'????

for eg i tried searching hw to say 'goodbye' in 1 of d websites, it says

'to say good-bye to somebody
chào từ biệt ai, chia tay ai'

wah .. say 1 gd bye need such a long sentence????

N wat abt 'thank you'? is cám ơn anh correct? n hw do u pronounce it??? w/o a tape/VCD to listen to, it's really nt easy to learn man ... cant always b troubling bros here all d time ... unless u have a dedicated Viet gf to guide u word for word lah.

Are you new to the Viet scene? You seem to be a seasonsed Samster

I recommend this book (comes with CD):

"Vietnamese for beginners" by Jake Catlett and Huing Nguyen. (Paiboon publishing). Not sure if it is available in Singapore.

Juz got call fr viet gal which i got hp juz now ... asked me wat i sms-ed her

i juz wanna drop her an sms cos she was busy wkg. cant sms in chinese. english she oso doesnt really understd. (viet gals may underst a bit of Eng, but when it comes to spelling, they r dam chia lat! like 'When', they will spell 'Whant'. 'Drink' is spelt 'Grink')

i wanted to tell her in sms ' i like u. See you again. Goodbye.'

Here goes:

tao thich maoy

(tao = i; thich = like; maoy = you)

gap maoy mua

(gap = see; maoy = you; mua = again)

d above words, i actually pieced together ea single word fr d dictionary provided by a bro.

danh tu

(goodbye, which i took fr Definition of `good-bye` in English - Vietnamese dictionary)

.. d gal asked me in chinese 'Ni zai jiang shen me?' (what r u tryin to tell me?)

... i told her what i meant, then she juz orrh ... n hung up aruptly (find Viet gals can b quite rude; not very refined in their talking. mayb it's their culture or our lang barrier)

hmmmm ... hope d seasoned bros can enlighten what went wrong with my language. if u join several loose words together does it break d meaning?

thks!!!

My Viet language is no good.

But I try to help you:

"Toi Thich em. Hen gap lai. Tam biet."

A very late reply. Xin loi anh. My guess: "Do you believe me? Got suspect me or not?"

To call straight will be around 88 mins.
Call back gets around 80 mins.

I thought the duration is close to 1h 50mins?
