upside down because when people visit your house, they will say "福倒" meaning prosperity upside down which sounds like "福到" meaning prosperity arrived.
Wishing all you guys who are watching this video a new year with abundance of health, fortune and prosperity. Thanks What The Pho for always sharing amazing videos. Much love ❤️
I wish you would stand up so we can see your polka dot dress.

@Whatsapp➕❶❻❺❼❺❽❽❾❺❺❶ Hi Van, you said to contact you via this way. Love the channel and already a sub 😁❤️👍 I love Asia and learning about different cultures as it helps us as beings to understand commonalities and differences. World be a better place if we were all like Buddha, dispel the darkness of ignorance with the light of love and wisdom. But, the bureaucrats won't let that happen, they prize power and control. Unfortunately that's every country👎. Anywho, keep up the great job. Jimmy ,🙏✌️❤️

Mình rất thích các video của bạn, video có nhiều hình ảnh và từ khóa giúp những người có trình độ tiếng anh kém như mình có thể hiểu được ít nhiều nội dung bạn trình bày. Chúc kênh ngày càng phát triển và nhiều bạn bè quốc tế biết đến.
All the best Vân

that's interesting using cat instead of rabbit, haha, your clothing is so wonderful, happy lunar new year!
Happy New year
You look so cute and kind hearted!
I like the fact that you have love in your heart. A lot of people have certain prejudices because of the past history and the current politics. I think it's important for us to love one another even though there are differences.
Happy Tet!!
Chúc mừng năm mới !!! 🤗💕🇻🇳🎉

Happy New Year to you in advance 💕
Same to you 😀

Hello. I am Korean living in HCMC and one of the TH-camrs. I saw you in instagram and here in your channel😊 Nice to see you!!
I'm also first time to know about the Zodiac years diffirence , thanks Pho
Great! Thanks for watching!!
恭喜发财的发音很准👍
E gái nói sai rồi, Tết không du nhập từ thời kỳ bắc thuộc "e xem lại lễ hội này đã có từ thời vua Hùng nhé". Còn việc người Việt khó chịu về việc người nước Ngoài gọi Tết là Chinese's new year không phải Vì chính trị, vì tranh chấp lãnh thổ. Mà vì " tại sao chúng tôi là người Việt Nam 🇻🇳 mà lại phải ăn mừng lễ hội của 1 nước nào đó.
Well said! Lunar New Year is a shared Asian culture. It is something new to me that cat was used to replace rabbit in Vietnamese culture. 🙏 Happy Lunar New Year! 🎊
And water buffalo that replaces the ox too 😅
Ok,u ar celebrating muslims new year.because muslim nation actually using lunar calendar.
Hello em gai!
Chuc mung nam moi!

Hay quá, kiến thức tốt. Ngưỡng mộ bạn vì giới thiệu VN ra khắp thế giới

Chúc mừng người Trung Quốc năm mới, Van.
I used to make a joke about Cat Zodiac, I never knew it really exist in Vietnamese Zodiac...thanks for the enlightment, Van :)
I was here during Lunar New Year 2023. And now that Lunar New Year 2024 is approaching, I'm here once again. I'm a Malaysian who understands Mandarin and a bit of Vietnamese. Cảm ơn rất nhiều.

The yellow apricot tree was amazing. Do the miniature (bonsai?) ones still have fruit? I was thinking they grew in colder climate.
It is not yellow apricot because it is translated wrongly. It is yellow ochna flower and can be growed as bonsai.
thanks vu, love frm manila
Hi from Can Tho City. 🤗💕🇻🇳
I wish you all a happy Chinese New Year in advance.
At my go to Vietnamese restaurant where I get my weekly Banh mi, I asked the lady about Tet she told me Lunar New year and Tet were the same but I was told a few years ago in Seattle that they are not. With your explanation I understand now, Thanks!!
@Rebecca Matthews they always claim good things as their own, exclude the Covid-19 =)))))
Anw, I havent known this fact before :>
@Rebecca Matthews S.Korean also claims Lunar New Year is created by S.Korean...So who copied who? lol
@@The_Art_of_AI_888 Well, to be fair China and S. Korea are the world's biggest Xerox machines. They're both good at copying original designs so based on this history I'd say the Vietnamese created Lunar New Year.
@@KP-xi4bj So why the Chinese don't eat "Banh Chung", "Banh Giay" but Vietnamese follow many things from Chinese like Red decorations, Red lanterns, God of Wealth (Than Tai), Red envelope (Li Xi), Lion Dance, Dragon Dance...? Are Chinese steal those from Vietnamese too?
@@KP-xi4bj No offense dude, but you and what you say do not matter. You can say whatever you want but the world only officially agrees and recognize your claim by hard evidence and solid proof...which means if you want to claim something, you should provide something credible (an ancient historical record/texts or something) that prove to the world that the Chinese copied Vietnamese Tet new year.
Until that, as we know, the world still agrees and recognizes the New Year festival came from China and was invented by the Chinese.
do you have a series about thiss lunar new year. im so excited
I did last year. Please go to playlist to check it out :))
i like the celebrate everyone's new year.
Only in English they name it as Chinese New Year or Lunar New Year, in China we just say New Year (新年), and we call the western new year as Yuan Dan (元旦) which has less people to celebrate it. So it doesn't matter for any of our Asians, and I love all the Asian people!
@Rebecca Matthews well, I don't care how ignorant people think about it, just check the Wikipedia, the answer is there
@Rebecca Matthews I can't do anything if you choose to believe in some random people saying this and that, Wikipedia is better than those information source
@Rebecca Matthews that is funny . Before I only know Korean like doing this .
Don't ignore Spring Festival on purpose, in China of course there is no need to add "Chinese" before it because everyone knows that it is our Chinese new year. More important, the origin we have to talk about, which is from China.
In, Vietnam, we call New Year simply Tet
Thank you again, this time for the nice diplomatic video, but for me as a foreigner I always had the impression that Tet was taken much more than three days! My friends always were weeks ahead busy with 'preparing' Tet and several activities take place before Tet. In the week before Tet the girls and their mothers have so much work to do that they are totally exhausted when Tet officially starts. So tired that they can barely participate in the party, with the exception of serving the snacks.
Too tired to wipe the floor all day, but they have a nice excuse for that: with the sweeping you would also sweep out the new happiness.
And after Tet....the other day I was driving through Ha Noi and I saw police and a big crowd standing near, what appears a jewelry store.. My friend explain that, I believe it is the seventh day, after Tet it is a good day to by gold and that kind of things I don't have.
For me as a foreigner I always take into account that at least a month around Tet my Vietnamese friends are very busy with Tet... not three days..
And it's always an honor to be invited to visit first... and unwise if you're not invited to visit first.
The strangest thing I've ever experienced was some person who really doesn't understand Tet at all, suggested that Tet should go along with the Western New Year. The fact that the Vietnamese no longer all celebrate their birthday on Tet, well that's an understandable adjustment, although it's still funny that whoever is born a week before Tet is one year older than the person who is born a week after Tet.
But it is impossible and it would be a cultural crime the merge Tet with the Western New Year, in my opinion and I'm not Vietnamese...
Yes, It was taken much more than three days (Don't know why she says only 3 days)...There is a term from Vietnamese ""còn mùng còn tết" which translates to something as: "still on mùng* still on Tết".
"Mùng" means : the 10 days of the 1st Month of the Year (Lunisolar calendar)
Guys, she was right. The real Tet vibe lasts for the first three days. After that, we all feel Tet is fading away.
@@phuong28292 so you mean that the Kitchen God's day has nothing to do with Tet??? It is celebrated on the 23rd day of the 12th lunar month, about a week before the First day of the first month of the lunar year (Tet)
@@VietnamCulturalExchange in certain parts of Vietnam, the kitchen god day is even bigger than tet. Also don’t forget the different traditions like god of wealth day
@@VietnamCulturalExchange I agree with @Hoai Phuong Le, cause the kitchen god day is like the preparation time for Tet
Nice Van, now I understand more about Tet, and in my family li xi is from older to young only, but my cousins they did like yours, i guess depend on parents
She's very interesting person. Her knowledge is extensive.
You are so beautiful 🤩 Happy new year 🎉🇻🇳❤️🍀💥💥💥🌼🌼
Great n succinct stuff abt the lunar new Yr, esp how amazing it is that u r able to soar above geopolitical barrier.
The greeting '' Happy Chinese New Year '' is exclusively used outside China and esp used in South East Asia, where the countries are multi ethnic n each has its own new year, making it difficult to distinguish between them. The Chinese there do not wish each other '' Happy CNY'' but rather' 'Happy NY' ' or' 'Gong Xi Fa Cai' ' as u hv done.
Although the lunar new Yr is not a holiday in 🇯🇵 it is still being observed in some parts.. e. g. In yokohama there is a 15 days spring festival where u may see lion dance, parade and lanterns.
Vietnam is fortunate to hv u as an.' '"ambassador '' to promote the country around the world thru ur blog n websites. Super, Van Vu... Wishing u a happy, healthy and prosperous Lunar New Year. 😍
Exactly! Thank you for sharing!
农历新年起源于百越部落，但只有越南人没有被汉族同化，可以说农历新年起源于越南。
你们中国人有游牧文化，生活在气候寒冷的草原上，没有春节
中国在1912年就废除了农历新年，这说明农历新年显然不是从中国传来的，只是抄袭了百越文化。
Happy Tet to Van and happy Chinese new year to the Chinese. Just a question Van, does Vietnamese have this celebration like the Chinese called Reunion Dinner where family members will gather for dinner on the eve of Chinese new year.
yes,😆

Gợi ý: Em làm những clip kiểu nói chuyện thì thỉnh thoảng có thể filming ở một quán nào đó có view đẹp làm background nhìn sẽ sống động hơn. Ví dụ quán laika trên sân thượng ( tầng 6) tòa nhà hàm cá mậpvới view hồ gươm , quán summit lounge trên sân thượng ( tầng 19) khách sạn pan pacific với viewhồ tây, đường thanh niên, quán top of hanoi trên sân thượng (tầng 68) tòa nhà lotte center với view skyline khu mỹ đình
Tuyệt vời! Em cảm ơn anh ạ! 🤗🤗
I affirm that Vietnamese people celebrate Tet of Vietnamese people.
1. Banh Chung and Banh Day date back to the 6th Hung Kings period (1712-1632 BC). More than a thousand years after Confucius (551-479 BC), Confucius said, "I don't know what Tet is, I heard it was the name of a great festival of the Man people, they danced like crazy, drinking and having fun in those days.”
2. The Chinese north of the Yangtze River and the Chinese south of the Yangtze River today have very different customs, cultures, traditions and cultures. The south of the Yangtze River has the same Tet as Vietnam today, the south of the Yangtze River. Tu is the ancient land of Bach Viet.
3. The Chinese who migrated to the south called Hoa Ha. Before summer, they were nomads who only raised livestock and invaded, but did not cultivate crops. is the beginning of a new crop season.
The Bach Viet tribe in the south of the Yangtze River has a wet rice civilization
At the time of Hai Ba Trung, our country was called Linh Nam, the northern border went up to Ho Dong Dinh (north of Hunan city in China). Today, there are still many shrines dedicated to Hai Ba Trung and their generals in the ancient land of China in Linh Nam.
Remember Hai Ba Trung (AD 40-43)
Keep smiling and keep rolling......Stay awesome ....Gong Xi Fatt Chai...
You missed Mongolia. I have a Mongolian friend, she told me they celebrate the lunar new year as well.
🥟 饺子 and noodles 面条 are more for the Northern Chinese while 🐟 (鱼) signifies the family having surplus year after year (年年有余).
A good tip: To my Asian fam, Happy New Year! To American folks, hope you enjoy Super Bowl.
Haha true!!!
Please teach us more Vietnamese language..💗🤗
Em mới biết đêan kênh của chị. Chị nói hay ghê á. Chị có thể chia sẻ về cách chị học tiếng anh được không ạ. Em cảm ơn chị

wow, ur pronounce of Gongxifacai is so good.
I would love to come Hanoi because of you .
Tu eres bué gira e tens um impactante senso de humildade aos mostrar coisas positivas e alguns negativos da sociedade vietnamita, gostamos da comida vietnamita e da cultura cheia de história do Vietnã pá. Feliz Ano Novo Lunar do Tigre e sejais prospera em tua carreira pá.
Happy Tet.

Sao em nói tiếng trung rất hay thế. 恭喜发财。
Simply beautiful 😍
This idea of the cat being the fourth animal for Vietnamese was a total head spinner for me - only discovered this today. In Chinese and other countries there is the story that the cat missed out on the zodiac so this is irreconcilable with the Vietnamese version. I call it Chinese New Year because I have grown up with it in Hong Kong and as long as I'm celebrating it with Chinese I will call it that - but since 2019 the celebration has been renamed Lunar New Year in Sydney to include other minority country groups, so in that context I'm happy to call it Lunar New Year. There is even media attention to the neglect of the cat since the Vietnamese community in Sydney is quite sizeable, and fair enough. I may have to find a way to draw a cat and a rabbit together.
Khổng tử 2500 năm trước đây đã viết : ta không biết Tết là gì ! Đó là lễ hội của người Nam Man ( Trăm Việt ) họ uống rượu và nhảy múa điên cuồng ! Trong sách Kinh Lễ ! Vậy Tết là phong tục người Việt truyền sang Trung quốc, từ đó lan ra Hàn , Nhật !

Cat is cuter, and they can sell waving cat desk decorations for profit all year long.
On another view, it's because rabbit was brought by the French colonials to Vietnam, the communist government hates that, saying it's not native to Vietnam. But hey, they accept the dragon cuz it's cool...
hay quá chị iu
Hihi thank you em nha!
I 💘 YOU VAN 🌷🌷🌷
Your are so pretty 🤩🤩🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Happy TET! Happy Vietnamese Lunar New Year!
Chuc Mung Nam Moi from Kim and Pierre in Saigon.
Van you are so beautiful 😍🇻🇳
💚💚💚
To me, basically both are Lunar New Year. In Vietnam, it's known as Tet, China - Spring Festival, in South East Asia - Chinese New Year.
It is called Chinese new year by Chinese people It is not known as lunar new year in South East Asia. China doesn't own South East Asia.
@@henry5172 China doesn't own South East Asia, True. But he's right, It's called Chinese new year (not Lunar New Year) in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, the Philippines...
Because the Chinese immigrant and descendants brought the festival into those countries. Southeast Asia countries were not under the Chinese culture Sphere (Sinosphere ) so they didn't have the Festival at first. Just g00gle search fact-check and you will see.
@@henry5172 Even Chinese in South East Asia just call it 新年 (literally the New Year) without the Chinese in front, or 农历新年(literally Lunar New Year) in our own language. Nobody use华人新年 (Chinese New Year). Chinese New Year is used only in English because there are other New Year like the Western New Year, and in fact the Indian new year or Thai new year etc. Do you always react negatively when talking about Chinese people?
@@teofilol2666 Not everything is originated in China including Lunar New Year.
Thank you for this video! I am Viet and I get annoyed hearing people call it the Chinese new year. I do call it the Chinese new year when I talk with my Chinese friends but I prefer lunar new year since that doesn't exclude people.
Other cultures such as the Hindu culture have their version of Lunar new year too. I feel I am going to offend some people anyways. So I would call it whatever I want.
@@ltlwatcher and they fall on different dates. lol people try so hard to be woke and "inclusive"
You can say Lunar New Year to Chinese ppl. I don’t think ppl get annoyed about this
Lunar New Year is like Happy New Year on January 1st of each new calendar year. It’s just a public holiday with no significant cultural attachments.
Every nationality is proud of its cultural identity. Chinese New Year festival goes on for 15 days with different cultural practices each day.
Vietnamese Tet goes on for 3 days. During this period, Vietnamese proudly practice their inherited cultures, different to the Chinese practices.
Korean Sollal, has their own cultural practices. In many ways different to the Chinese or Vietnamese.
To respect each other’s cultural practices and identity is the greatest honour.
Not to lump everybody under one umbrella.
Incidentally, Muslims, Hindus, Jews, Buddhists, etc. also have their New Year based on Lunar Calendar cycles.They will be most offended if we simply call their’s Lunar New Year.
