Pham Hong Nhung and the Militzke Publishing House have ventured into new territory by presenting a textbook for children who want to learn Vietnamese as a foreign language. "Tiếng Việt ABC" is designed for elementary school students aged 7 to 10, regardless of whether they live in Germany, another European country, or overseas. Child-friendly, richly illustrated, and oriented towards their everyday lives, children will learn 29 individual letters and 11 letter combinations alphabetically in the first 40 lessons. After 93 lessons, they will know all Vietnamese syllables. The lessons aim to develop the four basic skills of listening, reading, writing, and spelling. Learning the language is connected with knowledge about Vietnamese culture, and texts and images stimulate curiosity and imagination. Children are empowered to apply what they have learned in various communication situations.
