Description

Language Survival Kit Modules is a free Vietnamese phrasebook website from DLIFLC. It is built for beginners who need usable words and set phrases quickly, especially for travel, emergencies, medical needs, or field communication.

You choose from more than 20 topic sections, including greetings, numbers, directions, food, lodging, weather, medical terms, and military vocabulary. Entries pair an English prompt with Vietnamese writing, an English-style pronunciation cue, and buttons for listening. The main page also shows options for a printable PDF and an audio companion.

It works well as a quick reference. You can find a situation, hear a line, and repeat it. It is not a full learning path. There are no grammar lessons, quizzes, personalized feedback, or live conversation practice. The military-heavy sections will also be less useful if your goal is everyday social Vietnamese. Use it as a phrase bank alongside a structured course or tutor.
