Saigon Street Talk

My Saigon, #4

The Vietnamese language is brimming with fascinatingly evocative slang conceived and used on the streets of Saigon, over the din of clinking coffee glasses and whirring motorcycles. 

Yet this slang remains largely undocumented.

Saigon Street Talk is a compilation and learning guide for contemporary Vietnamese slang as it reflects contemporary Vietnamese society. 

Saigon Street Talk allows a traveler, an expat, a Vietkieu, or even a native Vietnamese speaker to understand and use uniquely Vietnamese turns of phrase usually known only to Saigon locals.
