Do you know a fact that the Vietnamese rarely say “thank you” in a direct way? Have you ever wondered what they say to express gratitude instead? More than a saying, the way the Vietnamese showing their appreciation to others in daily life, formal contexts, and special occasions can tell you that how distinctive and profound our identity is.
In this episode, we’re gonna mention detail of when and how the locals appreciate someone and the truth of saying “thank you”. Thank you for your time and enjoy your listening!
