Vietnamese Vocabulary Core 1k

Vietnamese Vocabulary Core 1k is a free shared Anki deck for learners who want a ready-made beginner vocabulary list instead of building cards from scratch. It is based on the Vietnamese course in Ling and is available through AnkiWeb. If you are new to Vietnamese and want a simple daily review deck, this fits that job well.

The deck centers on roughly 1,000 words and keeps them ordered and tagged by the Ling course, so you can study in a more structured way than with a random word list. Cards include translated example sentences, which makes the vocabulary easier to remember in context. The creator also notes that Northern and Southern audio are included, so you can compare both major accents while reviewing.

What it does best is spaced repetition for core words, listening, and pronunciation support. It also includes extra reference data from Wiktionary when available, such as IPA or related terms. What it does not do is teach grammar in depth or give you real conversation practice. If you use it, it makes the most sense as a supplement to a course, tutor, or beginner content rather than your only Vietnamese resource.
