Vietnamese Vocabulary Core 1k (Soi)

Vietnamese Vocabulary Core 1k is a free Anki shared deck made to drill roughly 1,000 words pulled from the Ling Vietnamese course. It is best for beginners and early intermediates who want a ready made core vocabulary list to review daily with spaced repetition.

You study it like a normal Anki deck, flipping through word cards and example sentences. The creator notes that words are tagged and ordered to match the Ling course, and many notes include extra reference info like IPA, meanings, and related terms when available.

A standout feature is having both Northern and Southern audio on the cards, which helps you connect spelling to real pronunciation. The tradeoff is that it is still a flashcard deck, so it will not teach you grammar, conversation flow, or listening comprehension beyond short sentence examples. You can download it from AnkiWeb and use it alongside the full Ling app lessons.
