But this is just the general equivalent of "I or me." Depending on gender, age and relationship, this equivalent also varies in different situations. Bạn means "you." This is the general pronoun referring to the person directly talking with you at the moment of speaking. Like the pronoun tôi, bạn is just the general equivalent of "you." Depending on gender, age and relationship, this equivalent also varies in different situations. R⇥t vui ⇤⌅⇧c g⌃p bạn literally means "I'm very happy to meet you" and can be understood as "Nice to meet you" in English. Vietnamese people also say R⇥t vui ⇤⌅⇧c làm quen v⌃i bạn which literally means "I'm happy to get acquainted with you" and this phrase is widely used when meeting someone for the first time in Vietnam. GRAMMAR The Focus of this Lesson is Self-introductions in Vietnamese Xin chào, tôi tên là An. VIETNAMESEPOD101.COM ABSOLUTE BEGINNER S 1 #1 - INTRODUCING YOURS ELF IN VIETNAMESE 4 R⇥t vui ⇤⌅⇧c g⌃p bạn. "Hello. My name is An." "Nice to meet you." Xin chào" means "hello" or "hi." It is used as a greeting when you meet another person. It can be used to greet anyone, at any time of day and in both formal and informal situations. When someone says xin chào to you, simply reply with the same greeting. Xin chào. After saying hello, introduce your name by saying tôi tên là + your name. Tôi means "I." Tên means "name" and là is the verb "to be." It can be literally translated as "I am named" but it is usual way Vietnamese people introduce their name. Then say R⇥t vui ⇤⌅⇧c g⌥p bạn. - "Nice to meet you." When someone says to you R⇥t vui ⇤⌅⇧c g⌥p bạn, simply reply with Tôi cũng v y, which means "Me too." For example: 1. Xin chào, tôi tên là Jenny. R⇥t vui ⇤⌅⇧c g⌥p bạn. "Hello, my name is Jenny. Nice to meet you." Examples from this dialogue: An: Xin chào, tôi tên là An. Mary: Xin chào, tôi tên là Mary. An: R⇥t vui ⇤⌅⇧c g⌥p bạn. Mary: Tôi cũng v y. An: "Hello, my name is An." Mary: "Hello, my name is Mary." An: "Nice to meet you." Mary: "Me too." Sample Sentences VIETNAMESEPOD101.COM ABSOLUTE BEGINNER S 1 #1 - INTRODUCING YOURS ELF IN VIETNAMESE 5 1. Xin chào, tôi tên là Lan. R⇥t vui ⇤⌅⇧c g⌥p bạn. "Hello, my name is Lan. Nice to meet you." CULTURAL INSIGHT Vietnamese Names A Vietnamese name usually consists of three parts: the family name comes first, then the middle name and the first name comes at the end. Vietnamese people often use first names to introduce themselves or address each other in both formal and informal situations. It's easy to see that in the dialogue, the first person introduces her name as An, which is her first name. Even though it is the first time they've met, it's common to use first names. To make it more formal, a pronoun or a title will be put first, followed by the full name. For example, Anh Nguy↵n Văn Nam (Mr Nguyen Van Nam) or Giám ⇥c Nguy↵n Văn Nam (Director Nguyen Van Nam). Depending on that person's gender, age, the pronoun will be different. Vietnamese people don't use family names to address each other like in Western culture.

(lit."It's not at all.") Chị ấy th⌘t xinh ⇣✓p. "She is so beautiful." VOCABULARY PHRASE USAGE Anh is one of the most common pronouns in Vietnamese. It is a second singular personal pronoun. The word itself means "older brother." But when it is used as a pronoun, it refers to a slightly older man or a young man you meet in formal situation. In that case, using anh instead of bạn - the general equivalent of "you" we learned in the first lesson, is more appropriate. Chị is also one of the most common pronouns in Vietnamese. It is a second singular personal pronoun. The word itself means "older sister." But when it is used as a pronoun, it refers to a slightly older woman or a young woman you meet in formal situation.

  • Impact of Stakeholders on the Performance of Green Banking Products and Services: the Case of Vietnamese Banks

The research aims to investigate the impact of stakeholders, and to provide recommendations on the performance of Green banking (GB) products and services in Vietnam. The paper is based upon both questionnaire data from random stakeholders of Vietnamese banks in the period from December 2016 to April 2017, and the analysis of in-depth interviews from the bank’s leaders and government representatives. The interviewed were mostly the stakeholders of top five popular banks in Vietnam: BIDV, Vietinbank, Vietcombank, Agribank and ACB. The results show the significant impact and essential role of the bank stakeholders, as well as the benefits, opportunities and challenges to sustainable development while applying GB in Vietnam. Recommendations are proposed to expand Green banking further for developing countries like Vietnam.

Thenkabail Received: 21 February 2016; Accepted: 12 April 2016; Published: 19 April 2016 Abstract: In this study, subsidence patterns in the Historical Centre of Hanoi, Vietnam are mapped using the Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) technique, with particular emphasis on the stability of ancient monuments, historical buildings and archaeological sectors. Due to the small and scattered characteristics of these structures, not only is a comprehensive coverage of radar targets needed, but also the details of a single building or monument. We took advantage of the high-resolution TerraSAR-X imagery with the aid of oversampling implementation on the Small Baseline (SB) InSAR approach to reveal the subsidence patterns. A total of 6.29 million radar targets were obtained, maintaining the average density of 217,012 points/km2. Our results suggest that image oversampling not only increased the number of measurement points 4.4 times more than the standard processing chain, but also removed some of the noisiest points.

  • Evaluating the Quality of Internet Banking Services on Prosperity Vietnam Commercial Joint Stock Bank (Vp Bank) Through Satisfaction of Customers
    ACADEMIC 2015 - 2017 EVALUATING THE QUALITY OF INTERNET BANKING SERVICES ON PROSPERITY VIETNAM COMMERCIAL JOINT STOCK BANK (VP BANK) THROUGH SATISFACTION OF CUSTOMERS CLASS: FBA7 – Nantes - France MASTER THESIS ThuyDuong NGUYEN Supervisor: Trung Hien NGUYEN, PhD 1.

  • Bank Privatization in Vietnam: Examining Changes to Management in Vietnam's New Banking Law, Decree No
    Copyright © 2010 Pacific Rim Law & Policy Journal Association BANK PRIVATIZATION IN VIETNAM: EXAMINING CHANGES TO MANAGEMENT IN VIETNAM'S NEW BANKING LAW, DECREE NO. 59/2009/ND-CP George B. Radies t Abstract: Due to its WTO obligations, by 2010 Vietnam must open its banking system to the world. As a result, the nation attempted to drastically modernize its state owned banks through partial privatization. This partial privatization, locally translated as equitization, proposed serious challenges to the existing legal infrastructure facilitating banks. To cope with these new challenges, in September 2009, Vietnam's new banking law. Decree 59/2009/ND-CP, was passed. An important change in the new banking law is its stricter regulation on the qualifications of managers. It is suspected that such regulation signals the nation's resistance to surrender control over its banks and commit to reforms. The new banking law also further relies on the problematic Penal Code and the Criminal Procedure Code. Faulty Penal and Criminal Procedure Codes can lead to fraudulent lawsuits and managers losing their positions. In spite of its problems, the new banking law is workable and a step in the right direction. By relying on existing management laws, as opposed to those introduced by the new banking law, and upgrading the Penal and Criminal Procedure Codes, many of the potential problems created by the new banking law can be resolved. L INTRODUCTION In May of 2002, Kim Brix Andersen, a Danish national, left his job as a vice-president at the largest bank in Singapore to help manage the foreign funds of a quarry project in Vietnam.' The quarry project was established by two British nationals, Peter Laking and Sean McCormack.^ In mid-2002, two Irish investors suspected Laking and McCormack of selling their shares in the project without their knowledge.
