Good day! Another one in need. ^^'

Hi everyone! This place is nice. Awesome use of a forum setup, I must say. Props to whoever manages this website.

Like many, I just stumbled on this site looking for some accurate translation for a message sent to me in Vietnamese. Seems like I've found the right place!

So here it is:

ban co noi tieng Viet khong?
toi lam ban duoc khong?

It's from a friend of mine learning Vietnamese all by himself. Dictionary, websites perhaps, and the like. And he sent me this message a couple of days ago saying, " Discover it's meaning!"

I failed haha. xD The dictionary bit is hard since at least, three to four words are considered either too broad or too fuzzy.

So any help would be greatly appreciated!

Tam biet!

Aha. >_> No wonder the dictionary couldn't pick the words up.

All those..erm..whatchamacallits? Those symbols above the letters and all.

Thanks for the help. Seems Viet's gonna be a lot harder to type without a Viet-oriented key board. =/
