    Would appreciate if someone can help to translate the above messages. Still wondering what they mean.

    Is it normal for normal friend in vietnam to call a girl as em and himself as "anh" in sms? As I believe the A & E in the SMS mean Anh & Em.

    Thanks.

    What are you doing, hubby? are you done with your work?

    "Lam j ma ko nghe may vay? Dang o ben nguoi yeu nen ko dam nghe dt phai ko? Sang j a dt hoai ma ko dc. Khi dc ma e ko nghe. A nho e lam. A chuc e hanh phuc ben nguoi yeu. A ko lam phien e nua. NHP."

    Why dont you pick up the phone? Are you with your boy friend, so you dont dare to pick up the phone? I havent reached you by phone since this morning. I miss you so much. Wish u a nice day. I wont bother you (for now).

    "Len si ta u ca pe vay"

    I dont understand

    "E Dan o Dau vay"

    Where are you?

    Thanks
    Its normal if a man call a women who is younger than him "em" and vice versa, but in this conversation, I dont think its a friend relationship or sibship.

    Even he who teaches me the smallest bit can still be called my teacher

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

    If the SMS is sent by a name "Anh Thi". Is "Anh" mean brother? Is it mean that she take her as her brother or there is other meaning in vietnamese?

    What is the meaning "Hinh tinh lang"?

    I think "Hinh" = Picture, but not sure the meaning of "tinh lang". Thanks.
