For instance, you might cite the Oxford English Dictionary for the spelling of an English word, or the Football Association for the rules of soccer.

I think we have good authority for the spelling of "Vietnam" in English though : http://www.vietnamembassy.org.uk/consular.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vietnam This is what the Wikipedia says : " Vietnam (pronounced /ˌviː.ɛtˈnɑːm/; Vietnamese: Việt Nam), officially the Socialist Republic of Vietnam " Which I think explains the difference between the English language and Vietnamese variants. Dear Kayla, I’m glad we have reminded your father of his youth.

I think we have good authority for the spelling of “Vietnam” in English though :

http://www.vietnamembassy.org.uk/consular.html

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vietnam

This is what the Wikipedia says :

” Vietnam (pronounced /ˌviː.ɛtˈnɑːm/; Vietnamese: Việt Nam), officially the Socialist Republic of Vietnam ”

Which I think explains the difference between the English language and Vietnamese variants.

I'm glad you like the story. We partly did it to say thank you to people from Vietnam for listening to us, as we noticed quite a lot of visitors from that part of the world to our site. It is hard for us to get the pronunciations right sometimes, and in future I am going to try and research the correct way to say Asian names.
