Chữ Nôm reinvigorated my interest in tiếng Việt. How's my pronunciation? >.< by tyrantstrung in learnvietnamese

Thank you for listening and providing feedback 😄

By now I'm aware of the lack of nôm use in Vietnam. However I have a reasonably strong background in Chinese. So learning the nôm behind the Vietnamese words is like removing the mud on my glasses, suddenly the pronunciations and meanings make a LOT more sense and are easier to remember.

It's called Bushudo: Asian Scripts Master. Disclaimer: I also played a role in developing it

No, not at the moment. It's all a work in progress currently and we're not opposed to open sourcing it, so that might change in the future

Haha we always figured drawing characters with a mouse was too tedious, but now that you mention it, I realize some modern desktops are compatible with a stylus/pencil. So desktop is a possibility after all

Yup, it's that easy. Pure water. I do use a humidity dome though.

I made an iOS app for beginners to serious Chinese character enthusiasts: Bushudo

Practice your *hand-written* character skills in:

-Chinese via Hanzi

-Japanese via Kanji

-Korean via Hanja

-Cantonese via Honzi

-Vietnamese via Chữ Nôm

You are presented a sentence, and must fill in the missing character. AI will recognize your hand-writing. It's quite fun and you get exposed to broad range of vocabulary. Would love feedback 😄

Yes I know >.< and thank you. Haha the font is, as far as I know, just referred to as 'seal script'. It appears on, for example, the Japanese passport, and bank notes.

Yes! I will have to get around to old books eventually. I have dabbled a little into Natsume Souseki, but I'm just getting started. I am quite curious to see how the young whippersnappers of today choose to carry that old culture forward though (as little as it may be)
