Nguyen

-A Vietnamese word that can be used as the First name(Nguyên, Nguyện), Surname(Nguyên) and Last name(Nguyễn) (rarely at the same time, and sometimes 2/3) (1)

-More than half of Vietnameses have family name Nguyen(Nguyễn)

-Hard to read af

-How to read the word Nguyen: Imma divide the word Nguyễn)i'm gonna use Nguyễn instead of Nguyen from now) into 3 part:

+The NG sound

+The UYEN sound

+The ~ sound(the tonal mark sound)

-Step 1: NG sound

+Say the word DOING

+Remove DO and I, you are left with the NG

+Say "uh" while releasing the part of the tounge which is blocking you mouth

+Keep practice until you can say it without having any trouble

-Step 2: UYEN sound

+Say each letter individually ( /u/, /i/, /ə/, /n/ )

+Say each letter faster and faster until you can combine 4 letters to 1 sound

+Practice more

-Step 3: combine the 2 sounds, practice until you don't have trouble saying Nguyên

-Last step: the ~

+Imagine... a hentai girl moaning (not kidding), but instead of yamete (Yãmẽtẽ), she moans Nguyễn

+Do your best to replicate the sound(i tried my best here, cuz you don't have tonal marks in the english alphabet)

-> and the result: You can say Nguyễn now, it takes lots of practice, but i believe you can make it

(1): Examples: Nguyen Tran Nguyen Vu (Nguyễn Trần Nguyên Vũ)
