Vietnamese has six tones in the north and five in the south, and the marks on the vowels carry them. The pronunciations below follow the southern accent of Ho Chi Minh City; showing the written phrase works when the tone does not.

Read aloud by your device's own text-to-speech in Vietnamese, so accents vary by phone and browser.
