How She Became Fluent in English Without Studying Abroad 

yeah she's very talented

More than a natural talent! She is extremely intelligent! Her brain is wired!

haha how about "Dos Equis"?

"Zero accent" is quite a bit generous.... she definitely has an accent.

@@damn671, not a Vietnamese accent though. Her accent is way better than some people who were born in the US.

@@ChrissieSM It's 100% a vietnamese accent. I can hear it

@@damn671 , I made my husband listen to her without showing the vlog, he said she was from the US. He is white English , born and bred in the UK. He did not think she has a foreign accent. Where are you from?

My niece in Vietnam spoke that way. She came to the US to study, got married, and of course stays. It is amazing that within a decade, English has become prevalent and well spoken in Vietnam.

Marry her!

for sure

Really smart

that's a good strategy

yeah the th- sound is a common difficulty for Vietnamese who are learning/speaking English. Interestingly, distinguishing between the t- vs. th- has always been difficult for me when I'm trying to speak Vietnamese.

She sometimes skips the last consonant sounds like s, z, t, etc. But many native Americans do that too. Usually, Americans skip these sounds in the middel of a sentence but will pronounce it at the last word(s). The Brits don't do that. It is just for speed. There is a term for it that I do not recall now.

awesome!

Thanks!

haha the accent was cute

@@BigTimeBentley definitely haha 😆

no doubt

Her english is 70% better than all Americans

I agree

Where is that measurement coming from?

Precisely! Her English is 100 times better than 80% of Vietnamese in America who have been living in the country for decades since the mass immigration in 1980’s. Clearly, not only these Vietnamese refuse to learn English, they continue to live as they are still in Vietnam. So, they live exactly with the culture as those are in the third world slum. What a shame for the Vietnamese community.

You should put down your banjo and get out more often.

Most likely at the Del Amo mall in Torrance CA, I'd guess?

@@MrLarryQ no but that is my local childhood mall being a kid born in Torrance and raised in Redondo Beach. Some of my earliest and fondest memories are from that mall.

Tustin or Anaheim inflection @TeamEmperor? That's the main question.

@@MrLarryQ Garden Grove/Westminster

she learned most of her English grammar from a non-native English teacher, and then vastly improved her speaking by interacting with native English speakers (like me)

cheers bro

To a large degree I think it comes down to a level of “what’s the point? The world defaults to a let’s speak English with each other for diplomacy purposes and we speak English already.” -type of mentality. So that discourages effort. But I do think a lot of people miss out on a sense of accomplishment that comes from learning another language, not to mention missing out on the ability to communicate with so many more people you wouldn’t be able to communicate without learning another language; not connecting with other cultures in a more enriching way, and so on. There’s actually a lot to unpack with regards to your curiosity on the subject, and I’m glad you took the time to post the comment. Hope you’re doing well Coggins

yeah some people are more privileged than others. the richest here in Vietnam send their kids to international schools that cost 20+ thousand USD per year. Trang was educated in public schools her whole life at a very low cost to her family and really made the most of her opportunities...I'm really proud of her for that. Unfortunately not everyone is blessed with the same opportunities but hopefully we can all do a little something to help others in less fortunate situations

I think the young Americans do it too 😆

You can learn anything and achieve it if you put your mind and effort. Your doubts is a great compliment to Trang. I didn't go to school for drawing but I was able to impress my coworkers and they said I was lying. They said I must have been in school for drawing. Anyway my point is anything is possible. Don't be jealous

not jealous at all, thanks@@thompsonnguyen1870

I learnt English at school in France, but improved not thanks to the mediocre teachers, but by listening to British radio programmes and reading English and American magazines and newspapers . Once we were asked to write an essay. When my paper was returned, the teacher did not mark it because she could not believe I wrote it myself. And this was well before I set foot in England.

Are you thinking bar girl or sleeping dictionary?

my exact thoughts , her mother is actually very beautiful for an older woman. imagine her at his GFs age. The GF on the other hand I have no comment ..

No, her English is not better than Tyler's. He is very well spoken, has a vocabulary range way broader than average. He uses a lot of puns and words that most people do not use or do not know about..

Perhaps he is more erudite than I'm aware, he seems to ramble at times. The purpose of my comment was not to denigrate Mr. Bently but to compliment Trang. But it's good to see he has loyal ass-kissers quick to come to his defense @@ChrissieSM

@@billc6019 , to recognize somebody's abilities does not mean a-k, as you politely put it.
