Learn Vietnamese (SynapseLingo)

SynapseLingo Learn Vietnamese is a free audio podcast for beginners who want to pick up Vietnamese by listening a little each day, rather than studying long textbook lessons.

Episodes come in two main formats: shorter “Learn Vietnamese Easily” story based lessons and longer “vocabulary” tracks that focus on reviewing words from a specific date. The mix works well if you like hearing the language in context first, then looping the vocab afterward while commuting or doing chores. You can start from the newest episodes on Apple Podcasts or another platform like Amazon Music or Audible and follow along by repetition.

What it does not give you is real speaking practice or feedback, and it does not clearly label a specific regional dialect. It also has limited social proof right now, with no Apple Podcasts ratings and the latest listed release on May 3, 2025, so it may not be actively updated. For learners who want structured progression and homework, you may prefer their broader SynapseLingo ecosystem on their site instead of relying on the podcast alone.
