Merry Christmas

I have only been on this forum 4 months but it's been a good ride. As I will be very busy over the next 4-5 days I will take this chance now to wish everyone a very merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous New Year.

Chuc ong mot Giang Sinh vui ve.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

A good night - one must be careful here to not imply good lovemaking.

chuc (ban) ngu ngon - sleep well     (ban = friend (safe pronoun))

I just listened to a conversation between my SO and her older housekeeper.

It's very interesting to listen the linguistic interaction of age and authority.

Without yet having the benefit of directly experiencing Vietnam, the members of this community both in real time and historical threads have provided deep insight into what it is like to live, work and play in what might become my future host country. From advice on visas, culture, food, locations and yes even a Schwab Debit card the sharing has been stellar. I too want to take this opportunity to wish everyone within this community and your loved ones a blessed, healthy and joyful Merry Christmas (if celebrated) and holiday season. Also, wish that 2019 will be your best year ever.
