>Are there a lot of racemixed people?
no, like literally non. The french dont bread with annamite, thats why we dont have such of problems like that
and like i have said, no one care about our culture, and thats a good thing
i dont want to ended up like jap, their culture is a mix of west and old tradition, which sometime make no fucking sense
they celebrate Christmas like one of their holiday? and they dont even do that back in the 30s or 40s
our culture is center around the people and their daily life, from what we eat, we wear our the way we talk to each other, it reflexes our long history.
ex:
Food
We have a long tradition of agriculture, a normal family back then need to have a good connection since they have a lot of member
we share food to show the deep connection between each individual, which is different when you compare to westerner culture
pic 1 show what we call mâm cơm, if you want to eat something, you use you chopstick to pick food from a bow, then drop it in your own small bow to eat. Every member in the family all do that, we share food.
talk
in english, you only have Pronouns like i, you, we, they, he, she, it, his, her, him, them.
but in vietnamese, we have tớ, tôi, bạn, cậu,chú, cô, em, mày,tao, đám người, bọn họ, bọn tao, nhóc, nhóm người,… each prase is use in different context.
for example
talk to friend: tớ, tôi, ông, cậu, bạn (if you barely know them, just met them, they are new to you, or you want to make friend with them….in the nutshell, to show your good will). You use: tao, mày…when you know the other person well, or they are you best friend….thing like that.
vietnamese is complicate, even for normal viet
the french didnt have much impact on our culture, but they still have. They way we build house change when the frech come, our they way we wear, our fashion taste,….
ex: pic 2
Men back then use to wear áo dài khăn xếp, and woman wear áo dài, but nowadays we only wear it in importance event
What did they do?
destroy our heritage, of coure.
ex:
picture of Kính Thiên palace (built during the reign on Ly dynasty), thousand year olds heritage. Fucking French pig just destroyed it and built an ugly Blockhouse above it
most of Thăng Long imperial citadel are just basically ruin, fucking ruin. When i visited it above 3-4 years ago, i almost cried when i actually saw all of the old citiadel. Ruin, ruin, nothing, nothing. Our culture, our heritage, gone.
you should visit Meridian Gate (imperial city), it look similar to the one in china, but only smaller
also, visits cu chi tunnel,minh mang tomb, hoi an, Hai van pass,Thien Mu Pagoda, places like that
you can ask more if you want, im not really an expert when it come to our culture, but i will try to answer all
i do learn a little bit of our history and culture, but not much
