Cool. Be interested to try transcribing it, if you can get a sound file.

Hehe - do you have someone who can speak Vietnamese handy? You live in London right? I think there's a sizable population around there.
Its Hanh with a dot under the 'a' to describe what it looks like.
My mom is in Texas and I'm in New York so hehe so I can't record it.

Ah. 
I'll try to find someone who speaks Vietnamese, but I don't know of anyone off-hand! I used to game with a guy called Jong who was SE Asian, but I've no idea if he was Vietnamese or not and we're not in touch any more...
I will see what I can do though!
And with that, dear Hivers, I am going to bed. It is half past three in the morning.
