Vietnamese Tu ViVietnamese HoroscopeThe Vietnamese Tu Vi (= Horoscope) has a special meaning in the lives of the Vietnamese people, they believe that the special days can help them to go better through, life, be more successful and also create links or paths into the lives of people they would like to be close to. If important business decisions have to be made, or if special days in the life of a person have to be set, then they make sure they fall on favourable dates. According to the Vietnamese Tu Vi, just like in other cultures and horoscopes there are good times and bad times to take care of certain things.
The Vietnamese Lunar New YearThe Vietnamese New Year's Day falls on a different date every year. This is due to the fact, that the Vietnamese calendar is based on lunar phases and not on the sun, as is the western calendar. 2008 Year of the Rat

What customers say about the Pimsleur Vietnamese audios:
I have always had good luck
with the programs. I used Pimlseur to brush up on my French.
This program, as with just about all Vietnamse language
courses, is based on the Northern Vietnamese language. I have
several friends from southern Vietnam and said that even with
the (slight) differences, people will still understand you. You
learn quite a bit about the language, and will end up with
enough knowledge to take what you have learned and form your
own phrases in conversations.
This program is not by anymeans
sexest. What it does is place you in several situations such
as: You are a young man greating a young woman, you are an
older woman greeting an older man...e.t.c... One reviewer said
that "chi" is used to address a younger woman...that is the
northern way of addressing a woman. In southern vietnam, "em"
is used and "chi" is used for older and "bac" for the
grandmother type. These programs are wonderfull and I would
highly suggest that if you want to learn a foriegn language, go
with this program..you will not be sorry. -- Phillip

If your like me and have struggled to master strange foreign tounges, look no further, this is mother of all language teaching systems. Over the years i've spent thousands of dollars trying to learn Japanese & Thai, the only thing i can say is that i wish i had discovered the Pimsleur system sooner. Three weeks later I have a vocabulary of about 150 words that i can mix and match to form coherant sentences, that my Vietnamese freinds can actually understand. The only problem is that only the compact verson is availiable, and i want more. You may say that compared to other programs this is expensive, but with the awesome results, its worth every penny. I am even considering buying the Full Pimsleur Thai course even though i'm fairly fluent in Thai as if's as good at the Vietnamese then it will improve my accent and grammar. -- Pazz, Bangkok, Thailand
