Yea. In Vietnam, people do use honorifics to respectfully address someone. But its kinda weird to call someone older such as "brother Long" or "Big brother Long", sound like calling your family members, right? So I think Japanese honorifics works fine in these situations when translate into English.another senukin classic!
im not one to judge but seeing japanese honorifics in an english translation of a vietnamese webcomic is a little strange on god no cap

Couldn't you leave it in like how Chinese or Korean scanlating teams do it? For example, using "Anh Long" the same way Manhwa does "Oppa" and "Unnie" when addressing people? I think it makes the distinction between the work's country more unique.Yea. In Vietnam, people do use honorifics to respectfully address someone.

Can I get some breast milk- Sorry, I mean breast milk- I mean breast mil- Sorry, sorry, I want some breast milk-
Vietnamese honorifics are very intuitive or maybe we could get more of them in media IMO they're pretty easy to understand if you just memorize them. Many manhwa translations keep the KR honorifics. I actually die inside every time i see "oneechan" instead of "chỉ".Yea. In Vietnam, people do use honorifics to respectfully address someone.
