Vietnamese Alphabet Symbols

Vietnamese alphabet symbols and other diacritical markings are used as a way to extend the Vietnamese alphabet system. The Vietnamese alphabet symbols and tones are used in part because the following letters are not part of the Vietnamese alphabet: F, J, W, and Z.

Since you are curious about the Vietnamese alphabet symbols, I will assume that you have already at least seen some of the Vietnamese Alphabet. So, I will use this brief post to focus on the 7 Vietnamese alphabet symbols including: ă, â, đ, ê, ô, ơ and ư.

Keep in mind that the Vietnamese alphabet symbols are not to be confused with the Vietnamese Tones. The alphabet symbols and tones are two different things. It is possible for them to have both. Therefore, it is a really good idea to learn how to pronounce and recognize the Vietnamese alphabet well before progressing to the tones. You are invited to learn more about both of these in our simple to understand Online Vietnamese Language Course.

ă	A with a “smile”
â	A with a “hat”
đ	D with a “cross”
ê	E with a “hat”
ô	O with a “hat”
ơ	O with a “hook”
ư	U with a “hook”
