Greetings everyone,
Apart from learning Vietnamese online, North vs Central vs South, does anyone have any good books or textbooks that helped them on their journey to fluency?
So far I've been reading Essential Vietnamese phrasebook and dictionary by Phan Văn Giường (Tuttle) and I like it so far.
I've also read good reviews for Việt Ngữ Đảm Thoại Conversational Vietnamese by Bac Hoai Tran.
Can anyone chime in if they've heard of the second book and possibly list any other books that have helped them?
As far as which part of Vietnam I plan to visit, my intention is to most likely travel to Hanoi and the surrounding Northern parts. Why? High heat and humidity are killer to me. I'm hoping the North is as cold as they say
Lastly, I understand that these are two really good places to learn Vietnamese.
