معنی
Giving simple directional instructions.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Hanoi, people strictly use 'rẽ' for turning. Using 'quẹo' might mark you as a visitor from the South. In Ho Chi Minh City, 'quẹo' is the dominant word. It sounds softer and more casual to Southern ears. When giving directions, people often use landmarks (like a specific gas station or a yellow house) because street signs can be hard to find. Always add 'ạ' at the end when giving directions to someone older than you, like a taxi driver who looks like your uncle.
Use your hands
Vietnamese people often use hand gestures while saying this. Pointing straight then sweeping your hand left will help if your tones aren't perfect yet.
Watch the tones
If you say 'thẳng' with a flat tone, it might not be understood. Make sure it rises!
