thread_title: Title looks weird

message: Tet is THE Spring holiday in Vietnamese culture, marking the start of Spring.  I'm aware that it occurs during winter, but it is the symbolic beginning of Spring and is inextricably associated with it.  Calling it a winter holiday might be a bit misleading.

thread_title: Winter vs Spring

message: Could someone put in an IPA transcription? Hearing the pronunciation is insufficient because non-native speakers will mishear the tones, vowels and consonants.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.227.133.212 (talk) 00:08, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

text: Note that the Tet will fall on the same day as the Chinese New Year on most years, but will occasionally fall on a different day (usually one day or one month difference).  See the first reference in the article for a detailed discussion about the reason. The pages you cited are hardly authorative, they are probably unaware of the calendar difference and used a Chinese calendar lookup tool.  The calendar difference had only occurred twice before (since being adopted in 1967) and each time causing a great deal of confusion (especially during the Tet Offensive in 1968, when the North had adopted the system but the South had not; communist fighters didn't know which date to attack and some attacked prematurely).  You might want to drop them a note so that they don't badly mess up their plans for Tet. DHN 14:17, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Pronunciation

message: My Vietnamese wife says that her country celebrates the New Year one day before the Chinese do. This has been the case since the brief China-Vietnam war in 1976. Any information on this?Jlujan69 02:32, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  One day difference with Chinese New Year? 

message: If you compare Vietnamese New Year to Korean New Year, they both share a lot e.g. calendar wise. Yet only Vietnamese version emphasizes the Chinese history in every turn. For example, phrase "variation of Chinese New Year" is only used in the page related to Vietnam even if the statement is valid for both Korean New Year and Vietnamese. This happens also on many other pages related to Vietnam. To me, a lot of the Wikipedia pages related to Vietnam read like they were edited by bunch of trolls.

thread_title:  Comparison with e.g. Korea 

message: This section needs some work, especially with spelling/grammar. I would change it myself, but I don't know what the original author meant by some of the statements.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ippyy (talk • contribs) 04:39, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've removed this line:  "One should come back home before New Year's Eve if you don't want to be in difficult working." for precisely that reason.   If anyone knows what this means, please feel free to revise it.  -- ShinmaWa(talk) 05:03, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Do / Do not 

message: I've noticed that a number of flowers have been left in Vietnamese. For example:
* Hoa ban. According to Vdict (), ban is paulownia. Is this correct?
* Hoa cúc. According to Vdict, cúc is chrysanthemum. Is this correct? A thread at www.englishtime.us/forum () gives daisy, too.
Both are true.Nguyenthienhaian (talk) 09:31, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: Plants and flowers

message: Doesn't make sense the way it is now. Should be "lunar new year". Transliteration is more like festival of the first dawn. I believe the "of" is a typo, should be "or", but the transliteration is quite different than how one would translate the phrase. Both could be provided. The misinformed-or rather mistyped- transliteration is rampantly viral as its proper translation and i think it deserves to be resolved.  Also the sole ref provided for this entire article is outdated and doesnt point to any information about Tet.
