The Vietnamese Language
- Vietnamese is natively known as Tiếng Việt and belongs to the Austroasiatic, Vietic, Viet-Muong language family.
- There are approximately 85 million native speakers worldwide.
- Vietnamese is a tonal language with six tones in the northern dialect and five in the southern dialect, each indicated by a diacritical mark.
- The current Latin-based writing system (Ch\xe1\xbb\xaf Qu\xe1\xbb\x91c Ng\xe1\xbb\xaf) was developed by Portuguese missionaries in the 17th century and officially adopted in the early 20th century.
- Before the Latin alphabet, Vietnamese was written using Ch\xe1\xbb\xaf N\xc3\xb4m, a complex logographic system adapted from Chinese characters.
- Vietnamese is an isolating language with no inflection: words do not change form for tense, number, gender, or case, relying instead on word order and particles.
- Despite being an Austroasiatic language, Vietnamese has been heavily influenced by Chinese due to a thousand years of Chinese rule, with approximately 60-70% of its vocabulary being Sino-Vietnamese.
- The Vietnamese community is one of the largest and most established migrant communities in Australia, with over 270,000 Vietnamese-born residents. The majority arrived as refugees after 1975 and through subsequent family reunion and skilled migration. Concentrated in Sydney (Cabramatta, Bankstown, Marrickville), Melbourne (Footscray, Springvale, Richmond), and Brisbane (Inala, Darra), the community has Vietnamese-language media, schools, temples, and thriving business districts.
About Chippendale
Chippendale is a small inner-city suburb of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia on the southern edge of the Sydney central business district, in the local government area of the City of Sydney. Chippendale is sandwiched between Broadway to the north and Cleveland Street to the south, Sydney Central railway station to the east and the University of Sydney to the west. The area was first occupied by the Gadigal people of the Dharug Nation. William Chippendale was granted a 95-acre (38 ha) estate in 1819. It stretched to the present day site of Redfern railway station. Chippendale sold the estate to Solomon Levey, emancipist and merchant, in 1821, for 380 pounds. Solomon Levey died while in London, in 1833. Levey's heirs sold over 62 acres (25 ha) to William Hutchinson. The eastern side of Chippendale, being adjacent to the CBD, includes a greater mix of uses than other parts of the suburb. It includes commercial uses such as offices and warehouses, with higher buildings facing Regent Street and Broadway. Elsewhere in Chippendale there are scattered shops, cafes and pubs. The small suburb depends on Broadway for shopping and services. The historic Regent Street railway station or 'Mortuary Station' is located on the eastern side of the suburb.
