Imagine this.
2
You walk into your new office in Hanoi.
3
It's 12 p.m.
4
Suddenly, the lights go out.
5
Everyone pulls out a pillow.
6
Is it a strike?
7
Nope, it's just a normal Tuesday.
8
That sounds like a dream.
9
Hello everyone and welcome to Fluent Future Vietnam.
10
I'm Robert.
11
And I'm Zara.
12
Today, we aren't just teaching you English words,
13
we're giving you the secret key to working in Vietnam.
14
If you want to make friends at work and understand your Vietnamese boss,
15
this episode is for you.
16
Let's dive in.
17
Hey Zara, tomorrow is my first day at the new company.
18
That is great news, Robert.
19
Are you nervous?
20
A little bit.
21
I don't know the culture.
22
Don't worry, I can help.
23
First, what time should I arrive?
24
The office starts at 8am.
25
So, I should arrive at exactly 8?
26
In Vietnam, it is better to be 5 or 10 minutes early.
27
Okay, early is on time.
28
Got it.
29
Yes, it shows respect to your manager.
30
Speaking of managers, how do I say hello?
31
Use eng for men and qi for women.
32
Even in English?
33
Yes, you can say hello,
34
eng nam, or hi, qi lan.
35
Why is that?
36
It's about hierarchy.
37
We respect people who are older or have higher positions.
38
That is very interesting.
39
Is it very formal?
40
It's a mix.
41
It's formal but also like a family.
42
Family?
43
How so?
44
Colleagues often ask about your life.
45
Like what?
46
Like, are you married or how much is your rent?
47
Wow, that is very personal for a Westerner.
48
I know, but in Vietnam it means they care about you.
49
So I shouldn't be angry?
50
No, just smile and give a simple answer.
51
Okay, smile and be friendly.
52
I can do that.
53
Now, let's talk about the most important part, lunch.
54
I love food.
55
Do people eat at their desks?
56
Usually, no. People go out together.
57
Do they talk about work during lunch?
58
Not much.
59
They talk about movies, food, and family.
60
That sounds relaxing.
61
It is.
62
But after lunch, something magical happens.
63
What is it?
64
The nap.
65
The nap?
66
Like sleeping?
67
Exactly.
68
From 1230 to 130, the office is dark.
69
Does everyone sleep?
70
Most people do.
71
They have small pillows and blankets.
72
Can I skip the nap?
73
Sure, you can read or use your phone.
74
But I must be quiet.
75
Yes, very quiet.
76
It's the sacred nap time.
77
I think I will love this culture.
78
Wait until 4pm.
79
What happens at 4pm?
80
Snack time.
81
Snack time?
82
Like tea and cake?
83
Yes, or milk tea or tropical fruits with chili salt.
84
Who buys the snacks?
85
Often, a team member treats everyone.
86
Oh, like a gift?
87
Yes, we call it d'anhang.
88
It builds a good mood.
89
I see.
90
It's not just about work, it's about the team.
91
Exactly.
92
spirit is very strong in Vietnam.
93
What about after work?
94
Do people go home at 5.30?
95
Sometimes, but often they go for bia hei.
96
Beer?
97
On a weekday?
98
Yes, it is where the real bonding happens.
99
Do I have to go?
100
You don't have to, but it is good to join sometimes.
101
To show I am part of the team?
102
Precisely.
103
Just have one drink and talk.
104
What about face?
105
I heard about saving face.
106
Ah, very important.
107
Never criticize someone in front of others.
108
So if my colleague makes a mistake...
109
Talk to them privately.
110
Don't make them feel ashamed.
111
That makes sense.
112
Keep it private and polite.
113
You're learning fast, Robert.
114
One more thing.
115
What should I wear?
116
For your first day, wear a shirt and trousers.
117
No tie?
118
No, ties are rare unless it's a very big meeting.
119
And for women?
120
Dresses or skirts are very common and professional.
121
Is the office usually hot?
122
No, the air conditioning is usually very cold.
123
So bring a jacket for the nap.
124
Yes, a nap jacket is a must.
125
Zara, this is so helpful.
126
I feel better now.
127
Remember, Vietnamese people are very forgiving.
128
Really?
129
If you make a cultural mistake, just smile and apologize.
130
They won't be mad?
131
No, they appreciate that you are trying to learn.
132
I want to learn some basic phrases, too.
133
Like what?
134
How to say, let's go eat.
135
Say, di an toy.
136
Di an toy.
137
Perfect.
138
Your colleagues will love that.
139
And thank you.
140
Come on.
141
Come on.
142
I will use that a lot tomorrow.
143
One last tip.
144
Bring some small sweets from your country.
145
To share with the team?
146
Yes, it's the fastest way to make friends.
147
Snacks are the universal language, right?
148
Absolutely.
149
Good lunch tomorrow, Robert.
150
Thanks, Sara.
151
I'm ready for my nap.
152
I mean, my work.
153
See you later.
154
Wow, Robert is ready for his first day.
155
Now, let's look at some key phrases and cultural tips from their conversation.
156
First, we talked about hierarchy.
157
In Vietnam, we use ảnh for older brothers and men and ảnh for older sisters and women.
158
Even in English offices, saying ảnh shows great respect.
159
Second, let's look at the phrase saving face.
160
This is a core value.
161
In the dialogue, I told Robert to talk to them privately.
162
This prevents losing face or feeling embarrassed in public.
163
Third, the lunch nap.
164
This isn't laziness.
165
It's a way to recharge for a productive afternoon.
166
Most offices in Vietnam turn off the lights from 12pm to 1.30pm.
167
And finally, socializing.
168
Work in Vietnam is about relationships.
169
Going to lunch or having snacks at 4pm is how you build trust.
170
You did an amazing job today!
171
Learning a language is 50% words and 50% culture.
172
We want to hear from you.
173
What is work culture like in your country?
174
Do you take naps at noon?

なぜこのビデオで話す練習をするべきなのか？
このビデオでは、ベトナムでの新しい職場での体験が話題になっています。オフィスに入ると、同僚がピローを取り出す光景は、文化の違いを感じさせます。このような日常会話を通じて、実際のビジネスシーンで使われる英語表現を学ぶことができます。英語の会話を自然に聞き、話すことで、言語スキルを向上させることができ、特に「英語シャドーイング」を実践することが非常に効果的です。
文法と表現の文脈
このビデオでは、いくつかの重要な構文や表現が使われています。以下はその一部です：
- 「何時に到着すべきか？」 - これは日常の問い合わせの一例で、基本的な疑問文の構造を学ぶことができます。
- 「早めに到着することが良い」 - 「on time」という表現は、文化的な背景を理解する上で重要です。
- 「挨拶の仕方」 - 男女によって異なる挨拶の仕方は、階級と年齢を尊重するベトナム文化を反映しています。
これらの表現を用いて、自分の言葉に置き換えて英会話の練習をしましょう。また、IELTS スピーキング対策にも役立ちます。
一般的な発音のトラップ
ビデオ内での発音に関して注意が必要なポイントがあります。たとえば、「eng」（男性への挨拶）や「qi」（女性への挨拶）など、ベトナム語の影響を受けた英語の発音があります。また、「How do I say hello?」の部分では、言葉のリズムやイントネーションも注視すべきです。これらのフレーズを使った練習を行うことで、英語の発音を良くする手助けになります。
発音を改善するためには、同じフレーズを何度も繰り返し聞いて、自分の声で再現する「shadow speech」や「shadowspeaks」を試してみることが非常に効果的です。このような練習を通じて、リスニング力とスピーキング力の両方を鍛えることができます。
シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
