Mot, Hai, Ba...


I started learning Vietamese from the daughter of someone Bryce works with. She’s fifteen and very smart. After all, she is the district’s high school chess champion, which I consider pretty great credentials. She is practicing her English on me. The only problem is that Vietnamese is so hard. I’ve always considered myself lucky to have English as my first language since it has a horrible tendency to break its own rules but I’m starting to think maybe Vietnamese would have been a better place to start. So far, I can count to ten (only most of the time and with a very poor accent).
