Description
Continuing Vietnamese is a second-year textbook for learners who already know the basics and want a structured move into intermediate study. It works for classroom use or careful self-study, not as a first Vietnamese book.
The 356-page book has 10 lessons, each split between a dialogue in Vietnamese as spoken in Hanoi and a more formal narrative reading. You also get vocabulary, grammar and usage explanations, pronunciation drills, cultural notes, exercises, and about 10 hours of native-speaker audio covering the dialogues and readings.
Its strength is the mix of conversational and formal language, with substantial practice across listening, speaking, reading, grammar, and vocabulary. The tradeoff is a demanding textbook style. An instructor review says the readings and language points can overwhelm typical intermediate learners, and reviewers report that the exercises lack an answer key, which makes solo correction harder.
