Common mistakes: Numbers

  • No.1 mistake is "Không" which is number 0.

When you try to make the "ng" sound at the end of "không", your mouth will open. However, you need to close your lips when "Không" is spoken. As I mentioned in the other article, Vietnamese doesn't have ending sounds, so please don't worry about the ending "ng". We don't make such ending sound, and even if you make the sound, we can't hear it. 😅😅😅

  • Sáu, Tám and Chín

Alhough rising tone is an easy tone for my students to say, most of them always forget the rising tone of the numbers: six, eight and nine. So please go up with Sáu, Tám and Chín
