    Default Hello all

    Hello everyone,
    My name is Binh. I have been using vdict for some time now, but never really noticed the community tab until today.
    I've lived in the U.S., specifically Lincoln, Nebraska, since 1976.
    I have recently taken an interest in improving my Vietnamese.
    I can speak, read, and understand rudimentary Vietnamese. It's the difficult topics like business, government, and science that I have difficulty with. That is why I use vdict, but sometimes I find the translation really odd or lacking.

    On another note, I have read some posts from other members who want to know how they can learn to speak English better with the correct pronunciation.
    Although I have never used the Speaking English Podcast for iTunes personally, I think it might be a good source for those who wish to learn correct pronunciation as well as listening. There are also podcasts from tv stations like ABC news, CBS news, and CNN.

    Hi Tranbt,
    Welcome!
    Nebraska heh, more power to you man.
    Back then, most VN refugees landed in CA, TX or NY. How 'd you end up "in the middle of nowhere"?

    good idea on the Podcast!

    I lived in New Jersey for a about a year, then my dad moved us to Nebraska after he got in touch with an old navy friend who'd moved there. I some times wonder how my life would have been different if we'd stayed in New Jersey, but
    you go where life takes you.
    Nebraska's state motto is "The good life."

    Please correct my grammar as you see fit. Much appreciated!
