The main reason I was drawn to this site was the search for Vietnamese materials---Those I did find! FSI teaches Southern Vietnamese (the southern dialect), so it is a goldmine. However I noticed on the discussion board that some people were worried that it wouldn't help them too much, since standard Vietnamese id\s based on the Hanoi dialect. Actually if one wants to study the Hanoi dialect (with a little bit of central Vietnamese thrown in, and explanation on word usage between north and south) then I would highly recommend SEAsite (Center for Southeast Asian Studies
Northern Illinois University) http://www.seasite.niu.edu/">http://www.seasite.niu.edu/ .
I'm so excited to hear that Vietnamese Voulume 2 audio files are coming out soon! Everyone--have a wonderful day!
