Vietnamese alphabet and characters
The Vietnamese alphabet should display only the following characters. If your document is not showing correctly, then first check that the encoding for that program and font supports Vietnamese.
The Vietnamese alphabet (quốc ngữ) in use today is a Latin alphabet with additional diacritics for tones, and certain letters.
Vietnamese grammar rules
Like other Austro-Asiatic languages, Vietnamese is an analytic, i.e., it does not use inflections to express grammatical relations. Instead, grammatical relations are marked by word order and by various particles.
Verbs are not marked for person or number. Tense, aspect and mood are marked by various particles.
Vietnamese formatting rules
| Short date format | d/M/yy |

Vietnamese capitalisation usage
