You: Hi.

How r u today
Tân: I’m good. How about u
You: Not bad. What r u doing?
Tân: I’m sufing the web, I have just seen a newspaper about “Should we talk in half
Vietnamese and half English or not?”
You: Lately it's been a topic of great interest on social media.
Tân: Yeah, a singer posted a video talking in half english and vietnamese on facebook.
There are contrasting opinions on this matter.
You: Yeah, How do you think about that?
Tân: I am against talking in half Vietnamese and half English, because: Many people
will be feeling uncomfortable when you mix English and Vietnamese, even get angry
and don’t want to meet you again. Do you feel uncomfortable when someones talking
with you in half Vietnamese and half English?
You: Yes, I do, because I won't understand what they'll say.
Tân: Yeah, that is the reason I am against this matter, when you mix two languages
people will don’t get what you say, which will cause confusion in communication. It
sounds like you don't respect your mother tongue.
You: After posting that video she received a lot of criticism.
Tân: Yeah, After that, she'll be more careful with what she posts on social media. I
heard that you are having a part-time job, right?
You: That’s right, so I dont have much free time. Should I have a part-time job when I
am still a students?
Tân: I suppose that students should apply for a part time job, because: Having a part-
time job help students have many experiences, especially jobs related to their major of
study, when they graduate, they can confidently say that “I'm a fresh graduate but I
have a lot of working experience”.
You: Yeah, I agree with you.
Tân: Besides, they also develop soft skills like communication skills, and help them
know how to manage the time sensibly.
You: Yeah, soft skill is very important and very necessary for future.
Tân: Besides students also have a small income to buy some things that they like
without depending on anyone. Moreover, they can help parents pay some fees such as:
electricity bills or water bills. And they can save money for travel, on the other hand,
they also learn the value of money.
You: Yeah, Although it's a bit busy, I also think that students should work part-time.
Tân: Oh. It time for my class, I have to go now, See ya
You: OK, see ya.
