New York's Vietnamese community is concentrated in Sunset Park, Brooklyn and parts of Queens. The city has a significant heritage learner population — second-generation Vietnamese Americans seeking to reconnect with family language.
NYC's Vietnamese community includes both Northern and Southern speakers. Many are heritage learners — children of refugees who grew up speaking Vietnamese at home but want to formalize their skills.
Vietnamese: A 6-Tone Language
Vietnamese has six tones — each changes the meaning of a word completely. Mastering tones is the core challenge for English speakers. A tutor who can train your ear and your production is essential.
Mid-level, steady pitch. The neutral tone.
Low and falling, slightly breathy.
High and rising, sharp and clear.
Dips and then rises, like a question shape.
Low and falling with a glottal stop at the end.
Rising with a sudden creak mid-tone. Most challenging for learners.
