A1 Expression ニュートラル

Đi thẳng

Go straight

意味

Giving direction to continue forward.

🌍

文化的背景

In the 'negotiated' traffic of Vietnam, 'đi thẳng' is a statement of intent. Drivers use their body language and steady speed to signal they are going straight. While 'thẳng thắn' (honesty) is valued, being too direct ('đi thẳng') can be seen as lacking 'tế nhị' (delicacy) in social hierarchies. The 'hẻm' (alleys) of Saigon are so narrow that 'đi thẳng' is often the only physical possibility for blocks at a time. The concept of 'thẳng' is linked to the bamboo tree, symbolizing a person who may bend but never breaks and remains true to their path.

💡

Use your hands

Vietnamese is tonal; if you're unsure of your tone, point forward while saying 'đi thẳng' to ensure the driver understands.

⚠️

The 'Thắng' Trap

Be careful not to use the rising tone (thắng). In a car, 'thắng' means 'brake'. You might accidentally cause a sudden stop!
