^ Yes that's what many people believe too, that Viet people are from Southern China, hence bearing many similarities to the Chinese who live there presently. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vietnamese_people
Viets are more related with the southern Chinese. That's why a lot of Viet things and stuff are more into Cantonese and its relatings. languages, names, clothing, foods, etc. before, viets used to be chinese, but then they formed themselves with a new language and their own culture, so then vietnamese was created.
viet males in aus here..are arrogant..mostly often get into fights wid white ppl here when drunk.. dislike them>.<. oo nanking massacre.. it's avery very sad story.. juz like war n destiny.. i cud cry reading the book on it.. japs japs.. now, jap onli have memorial once a yaer to apologize to nanking peeps rite? very sad nanking..d worst is digging rapping killling and burying them..
viets are chinese. Viets are chinese who migrated from china to vietnam long long time ago. All oriental nations are chinese. its true.
Ditto in Canada too, or at least where I am. The Viet guys have a bad rep, known for their party-lifestyle and criminal activities (recently, many marijuana busts have been of Viet people...) and always think they're better - they only drive those pimped cars and wear bling and expensive clothing because it's on all their credit cards - they're actually not that rich, they're all posers, in debt, and if they are actually rich, it's all because of their grow ops.
^ same here in US too. haha... mostly the viet guys that i see always try to act gansta and all in the hood, but they aren't... and try to act like their cool, and try to look cool with all the nice clothing and stuff. like the cool kid type, but their nothing but jerks mostly.
Arr ya, and it pisses me off too because white people can't tell the difference between Asians, so these viet guys are giving all Asians - including Chinese - a bad rep. I know lots of people who look and frown down on Chinese people, thinking it's always us who cause trouble, when it's really the viet guys.
it only depends on the area u live in tho...like if u live in the projects its like normal for illegal events and thats y ppl turn out to b who they r...well u can't say all the viets r to blame for the bad rep cause a lota chins too r invovled in this stuff...but ya..most of the viet guys i know r like gangsters or w/e u call them tryinto hustle to get their cash
^ not really.. i live in a safe neighborhood, but every time now and then when i go to school or go somewhere, i have to at least see some viet ppl. therefore, most of them that i spot, always DO cause trouble, n no chinese was involve with them. but some are, but they are not troublesome like viets. viets are worse! >.<
^ well it all depends on the person cause a lot chins r bad too...viet may be a lil more agressive..but it still dpeends on the ppl they're with
Re: Vietnam and Chinese Many years ago, Chinese started to migrate to different unoccupied lands. One of them is Vietnam. Vietnamese used to know how to write Chinese. After many generations, they lost the skill. So now, they can only read, speak and write in Vietnamese.
didn't some eurpean went to vietnam and donated some DNA...=) .. which is why some viet girl look mix..
Donated some DNA??? What are you talking about??? Clearly, as it's already been established in this thread, Vietnamese people are descendents from Chinese people. You see mixed looking Vietnamese girls because maybe, they are mixed one of their parents is Viet and one is European.
lol nice story but u better should read the other comments long time ago this country which is called vietnam nowadays was occupied by the chinese. they adapted the chinese writing, civil servants, culture (confucianism) etc, etc,... old vietnamese writing is similar to the old chinese letters and the one in HK but after the french colonized vietnam the vietnamese adapted the arabian letters coz the french didn´t bother with chinese writings that´s why it turned out to be like it is nowadays You can compare the actual vietnamese letters with the pin yin in mandarin language, with was created to make it easier for foreigners to learn mandarin
