As you know, we have 2 main dialects: Southern (represented by Sài Gòn accent) and Northern dialect (represented by Hà Nội accent), in which Hà Nội accent is considered standard. However, believe it or not, neither Saigon nor Hanoi people pronounce the sound "tr" in their normal speech. We both unify "tr" and "ch" into "ch", but Northern "ch" is more like an alveolar consonant (tongue tip touches teeth ridges), while Southern "ch" is more palatal (tongue body touches hard palate).

The real "tr" sound exists in some Central accents (remember the inventor of Vietnamese Latin alphabet learned Vietnamese in the Central of Vietnam; if he arrived in the North or South there would be a possibility that we don't have "tr" in the sound system :) Nowadays we are inclined to pronounce as close as possible to the writing.

So, I think it doesn't matter which is the standard "tr", but which accent you want to follow does :) However, making a clear border between "tr" and "ch" would be very helpful to avoid dictation errors. Hope my explanation will make you less confused about "tr" :)

Annie, I am so very impressed with your technical explanation of pronunciation in Vietnamese language. For your contribution, you really deserve to be awarded with an honorary medal for your voluntary public service by the Vietnamese government.

I speak Toishanese. It is a dialect of Cantonese in China. The sound for thousand is the same in chinese but we have a different meaning for the term. Vietnamese and Toishanese share similar sounds but different meanings.

I hope you're not claiming that English is a French language as well, though the English language is a derivation of Frisian, a Germanic language, relating to Swedish, Dutch, German, etc. What happened in England was that it was ruled by a french speaking group from 1000-1500 AD, just as Vietnam was ruled by Chinese after China conquered the Vietnam capital of Guangzhou. However, the ethnic group in Guangdong were mostly Dai/Tai, not today's Viet people.

Come on girl! This is not so hard :( I think learning how to count to hundreds and thousands are important because we need it a lot. Especially for Vietnamese you should keep in mind how to count up to millions if you spend money here ;) Keep it up girl!

Hi Annie. Thank you for another useful video! I have one question related to the content. I would really like to know how 'tr' is pronounced in standard dialect. I can hear a difference between 'ch' and 'tr', but I'm not sure how to produce the standard 'tr' sound. I understand that 'ch' is an acceptable substitute... but still I would like to master that standard 'tr' sound, too. Or, if not master it, at least know something about the physical production of it. Keep up the good work!

Xin chao Annie, estou apaixonado por tuas aulas de língua vinda do Vietnã, gosto muito de escutar tuas orientações sobre cada pronuncia de Tieng Viet, sei que ser pra lá de duro aprender uma língua muito próxima do chinês e francês, espero poder aprender o máximo para ter mais liberdade enquanto estiver um dia em teu belo país do Vietnã, estou ansioso para te conhecer e quem sabe aprender um pouco de inglês, sou parvo em entender inglês, mau falo I love you, engraçado, isso por mim gostar de filmes de língua inglesa, temos muito pouco informações sobre Vietnã, apesar de amigos me alertarem sobre time nacional serem campeões na Ásia e é só, fico triste em procurar algo sobre Vietnã, e só tem guerra estúpida que são vasto em toda internet, tenha um bom ano Lunar do Javali e seja muito feliz, até um dia minha bela docente vietnamita.
