뜻
Asking for the name of a road
문화적 배경
Street names are a primary way Vietnamese people learn history. If you see a street named 'Hai Bà Trưng', it refers to the Trưng Sisters who fought the Chinese in 40 AD. Hanoians prefer the word 'Phố' for streets in the Old Quarter. 'Phố' implies a street with a history of commerce and community. In Ho Chi Minh City, 'Đường' is used for almost everything, from tiny alleys to massive boulevards. The city layout is more grid-like compared to Hanoi. Addresses often include 'Ngõ' (alley) or 'Hẻm' (lane). If someone gives you an address with many slashes (e.g., 12/4/5), you are looking for a house deep in an alley system.
Use 'Cho hỏi' for instant politeness
Starting your question with 'Cho hỏi' (May I ask) makes you sound much more natural and polite to strangers.
Watch the 'gì' vs 'nào'
While 'gì' means 'what', 'nào' means 'which'. 'Đường nào' is used when choosing between options, 'Đường gì' is for the name.

Address people correctly
Always use a pronoun like 'Anh', 'Chị', or 'Bác' before asking. Never just say the phrase to a person without a greeting.

자주 묻는 질문
10 질문Yes, but it's very blunt. It's like saying 'What road?' in English. Use it only with close friends or in a hurry.

'Là' acts as the equal sign (=). 'Name = What'. It's the standard copula for identification.
Yes, it is universally understood, though Southerners use 'Đường' more often than 'Phố'.

No, for a person you say 'Tên bạn là gì?' or 'Bạn tên là gì?'.
