Something like this is a huge problem with the young Vietnamese generation in Germany. They speak flawless German but bad Vietnamese - so they can't talk to their parents.
- forinti 5y agoAfter watching 1983 I became aware that there are many Vietnamese in Poland. It seems there are many in Germany too. This is an interesting legacy of the Eastern Bloc.
- KingOfCoders 5y agoThe interesting story in Germany is, there are two groups of Vietnamese. In the west there is a community of Vietnamese who fled the communists as boat people after the fall of Saigon. In the east there is a community of Vietnamese who came from communist Vietnam to work in the GDR.
- wdutch 5y agoVietnamese is also a difficult language to learn. I'm a European living in Vietnam and find it hard to get resources such as textbooks. I hope at some point a standard can be established for learners including textbooks and exams. Sadly, I feel like there's not enough demand for it currently.
