  1. Hello - Xin chào - Pronunciation: Zin chow

  2. Thank you - Cảm Ơn - Pronunciation: Gam-um

  3. Please - Vui Lòng - Pronunciation: Voo Laow

  4. Excuse me Xin Lỗi - Pronunciation: sin loy - Use this phrase if you accidentally bumped into someone or if you need to squeeze past them.

    Em ơi - Pronunciation: em oy - This phrase, on the other hand, also means ‘excuse me’ but is used when you want to get someone's attention.

  5. Yes - Da - Pronunciation: yah

  6. No - Không - Pronunciation: comb

  7. Nice to meet you - Rất vui được gặp bạn - Pronunciation: r-uht voo-yee d-uh-k g-uh-p ban

When you're introduced to someone new, this phrase can make a great first impression. Just keep in mind, in very formal situations, Vietnamese people prefer to use professional or familial titles rather than first names.

  1. Goodbye - Tạm biệt - Pronunciation: Taam Byeet

A universal farewell phrase that works in all situations, whether you're saying goodbye to new friends or exiting a local coffee shop.

Travel Packing List

We advise you to travel light and bring only what is necessary for the trip. It is recommended that volunteers bring enough clothing to last the week. You should plan to carry one set of clothes and necessary toiletries in your carry-on luggage in case checked luggage is lost or arrives late. Remember to pack only what you can carry yourself, including checked luggage.
