Vietnamese Culture
Vietnamese cultural roots are ancient.
Sometimes the foreign visitor is hit with a tsunami of culture.
Other aspects of culture can be difficult to discover, and complex to understand.
Often as not, us foreigners, just get it all completely wrong.

The only way to sneak a look at Vietnamese culture is;
~ live in Vietnam for a long, long time.
~ have many Vietnamese relatives and friends over a long, long time.
Study the country, history and culture (at a high level) for a long, long time.
~ be snoopy.
~ go to places others do not visit.
~ read, read, read.
~ explore, explore, explore.
~ understand that no one will ever know it all.
~ be prepared to learn something new every day.
~ be prepared to admit that what you thought you knew, is wrong.

Most people are not lucky enough to live in Vietnam for a long, long time.
Most people are not lucky enough to have many Vietnamese relatives and friends.
Do not worry about that. I am happy to be your 'stand in' qualified, snoopy person.

How come a history website is interested in culture?
By profession I am a linguist.

But where do languages and culture originate from?
From the past.
Linguists study the culture's history.
Language to culture to history.
