@khoafish Secondly, people who are from the South don't necessary speak the Southern accent. In 1954, a lot of Northerners fled to the South, forming a large population in the South. Their children who are born in the South are definitely "from the South", but they may speak the Northern accent, which is spoken by their parents. When they grow up and encounter more Southerners, they may pick up the Southern accent along the way.
@khoafish You don't understand anything. First, he was born in the US and is clearly not used to speaking Vietnamese. He probably picks up his accent from many people, among whom are both Northerners and Southerners. If you know how people with the Northern and the Southern accents live together here, you know what I'm talking about.
well yur pretentious , mkays idc how he says it .. AT LEAST he knows wrh hes talking about and KNOWS what it means then it doesnt really matter ... i can pwn him anyday but im not going to bash him cuz he's innocent .. u cant blame him for what he cant do ... well at least he can play guitar better THAN yuuu . that covers up for his viet that he cant say rite . MAKAYS ?!?!?
well because he was born here... I still admire him because a lot of my friends are Vietnamese American who can't even say one word in Vietnamese... And here, he can sing in Vietnamese... He's so talented
I prefer people to speak in their hometown dialect. It sounds contrived and pretentious when people from the South try to speak with a Northern dialect. I think a lot of people would think so, too. Public speaking with Southern accent is fine. There's nothing wrong with it. What happens when people find out you are from one region of the country after you've been speaking the dialect of another? I also realize he's still very young and inexperienced.
It could be pretentious and vain. Or it could be because many Vietnamese people prefer Northern accents in public speaking, and he feels uncomfortable NOT speaking that way since everyone else does on stage. I'm not sure it's entirely fair to attribute only bad motivations to him, although I full realized he's a teenager who thinks he's made it big playing on Paris By Night. I also do appreciate that we're having a more mature conversation than the rest of this page.
@khoafish What's wrong with your eyes? SoulGook wrote "he SAYS", not SING. SoulGook meant the introduction that Adam Ho says before he sings.
