There are 10 days left till Tết ! (Lunar New Year as foreigners call it)
We Vietnamese don't really celebrate "normal" New Year here, but rather this one, think of it like Christmas Eve.
So anyways, an early Chúc mừng năm mới - Happy Lunar New Year to you guys.
Chúc ae Việt Nam phát tài phát lộc, sức khỏe dồi dào. I wish you and your family the best of health, wealth and joy.
Remember, nothing beats being with the ones you love.

Haha, it's really cute how angry Vietnamese get when you call Tet Chinese New Year. Meanwhile the Chinese just call it Spring Festival春节

Yeah, but the name literally translate to Lunar New Year because the calendar follows the Moon, not the Chinese

 

[blablablub]

[RakshaJaeger]

Marvelous boobies, must protect them at all costs

If you know french, is it pronounced the same way as the word "tête" (translates to head in english)? It seems similar, but I'm not familiar with the pronounciation...

The Chinese call it the spring festival to divorce it from its history. It's been a thing since Mao Zedong and the removal of the Four Olds. The Four Olds were 'old ideas', 'old culture', 'old customs', and 'old habits'. They destroyed temples, burned books, and changed the language. That's why the mainland Chinese use simplified Chinese instead of traditional Chinese.

I wouldn't call it cute
The reason they're angry is that it's stereotype, like call very black person African or yellow one Chinese.

"The Chinese call it the spring festival to divorce it from its history."

Lmao, Mao destroyed Chinese New Year, what are you smoking? The renaming of Chinese New Year to the Spring Festival began with Yuan Shikai under the Republic of China in 1914, and was later affirmed as a national holiday under the People's Republic in 1949. The Four Olds campaign didn't start until 1966. Please do not make shit up on things you have no knowledge of.

Time to overthrow the kingdom.

 

[booterror]

Awwww such a cute little... devil?

The same devil that they were talking about mounting an assault on this Dollar Store Space Battleship Yamato?

.... FUCK. Danger levels off chart.

 

[SifTheFair]

Thanks for the chapter.

Here's to the hope he adopts another little familiar.

 

[baconcat]

You seem to be informed of and reasonably proficient in the concept of the full-stop, or period. Any reason that particularly knowledge and skill magically takes a leave of absence whenever you fire up your typesetting software?

surp-

When in doubt, look it up.

Does't everybody do this? Foreign countries are called foreign for a reason. Nobody in America realizes there's Chinese food besides Sizhuan or Henan. Or foreigners assuming all of Vietnam has cold-wet seasons when that's just the south.

The part of the usa i'm from is not Texas, California nor New York, so i'm used to foreigners spouting sterotypes based on those usa provinces i'm not from.

The only way to move beyond the various stereotypes we all develop is to live in (or have friends in) those mysterious other places. This is something the vast majority of people cannot or will not do in between country to country.

Yeah, it's called "proof reader needed", I also don't use "." in my TL, as it makes the dialogue look weird. I think of it literally, you don't say "I like it full-stop". Even the raws don't have it, so it varies from TL to TL.
Well, I also need a TL, so anyone interested DM me

 

[baconcat]

It doesn't, and what you think doesn't matter, because people aren't taught your idiosyncratic concept of spelling and punctuation. Maybe it looks weird to you, but the shortcomings of your own education in written English are neither the fault of your readers nor their responsibility to suffer.

you don't say "I like it full-stop".

Yes, you do, because that's what the full-stop indicates. End of a non-exclamation, non-question, non-ellipsis sentence.

I don't care if you want to cultivate your private orthography, by all means do … for yourself. But given you're publishing your works for others to read, you had better use rules and guidelines taught to and referrable by the common public so that they can derive and digest successfully the notions and messages you intended to convey.

everyone is just having a good time ehhhh

Yes, lovely pedantry. Proper pillock level. Much applause.

But... the people reading this are in it for the boobs Plot and shenanigans.
I very much doubt your obsessive fetish pet peeve, so loquaciously on display here, would interest anyone else but....umm... you.

But hey... free world and all that...
