Practice phone calls in Vietnamese before your trip
Heading somewhere people answer the phone in Vietnamese? The calls you make on a trip, like confirming your hotel, booking a taxi or reserving a table, are often harder than talking face to face: no gestures, no menu to point at, and people speak fast. A little practice in Vietnamese before you go makes those calls much less stressful.
Useful Vietnamese phrases for phone calls
| English | Vietnamese |
|---|---|
| Hello (opening the call) | Xin chào. |
| I'm calling about my reservation. | Tôi gọi về việc đặt chỗ của tôi. |
| Could you speak more slowly, please? | Bạn có thể nói chậm hơn được không? |
| Could you repeat that, please? | Bạn có thể nhắc lại được không? |
| A table for two at 8 pm, please. | Cho tôi một bàn cho hai người lúc tám giờ. |
| Thank you, goodbye. | Cảm ơn, tạm biệt. |
Tip: say your name and the date of your booking slowly and early in the call, and keep a pen ready for times, prices and confirmation codes.
