    This is not a SMS. Just a picture I took with her that keep in her handphone. She named it as "Hinh tinh lang".
    I will only give up of learning Vietnamese language for the same reason that I am learning it.

    you must write this phrase with exactly accent so that we can help you to translate into vietnamese or you must tell us know the relationship between you and her and we can guess the meaning of this one. why don't you ask her directly? i think this is the best way to understand what she means.hihi

    "Tinh lang" nghia la: em yeu anh. neu anh gat em, em dau do
    n.

    According to her explanation, I could translate

    "Tinh lang" means "I love you. If you cheat on me, I will be very hurtful." (I dont think this is what "tinh lang" means)

    But I still dont know what "tinh lang" mean. I guess it is "Tình lặng" = "The love in secret" or "The silent love (does this have same meaning?)"

    her SMS means: "tinh lang" means: i love you, if you cheat me, i will be injured.

    it's difficult to understand what she means. but i guess "tinh lang" is person who she loves very much. in vietnamese, maybe it is "tình lang" hichic

    Yea "tình lang" makes a good sense. It means "Lover". Nowadays, people rarely use this word.

    Thanks for all translation given.

    She named the name of our photo in her handphone as Tinh Lang.

    I am still very confusing with the SMS that I posted earlier. Why a normal friend can address her as "Bxa". She said he is joking. Can I believe it?
