a reminder to bros out there,when replying to people who r older then us or higher in authority then us e.g MIL,auntie,uncle,manager,boss etc

we have to reply with the 'da' in front first.

it is actually pronounce as 'ya'.

i read the whole long long story... and i felt nothing at all.

IMHO, i think there are a lot of others who are in more difficult situation like this "silly son" and in comparison, this "silly son" is a lot more fortunate than others.

At the same time, i would like to bring out another 2 points...

1. The Purpose of the Essay
=================
We dun even know if this is a true story or just made-up story. For all u know, the boy is just making up a mountain out of a small ant-hill, or just rattling away so that the words count is enough for him to hand in the assignment.

2. The IMPORTANCE OF SCHOOLING
=======================
I really dun see the point at all... what is the point of going to school when u are in Vietnam??? what could u have learn???? I think the only thing they learnt is about bribery... every year 2 or 3 times, they have to hand this white envelop to the teachers to secure high marks without having to study hard. Those HIGHLY EDUCATED university students.. u look at them, at peak hours of the day, they ride their bicycles side by side and chatting the way without consideration for other road users. They go into KFC and buy things without queueing... if that is how they behave, then go to school for fuck!!????

Adding on, if u talking to someone younger or lower in authority than you, you can use "uh" in answering their questions.

hahaha Bro deptrai4u, i think their schooling (especially girls) may be important for us.. then we can communicate with more of their girls.. but then again, knowing TV will score more points..

I guess the "ua" means she sms halfway, someone poke her... That is why she add the "ua ua"

I think its the same as "nua". Just an expression.
From vdict it is most probably "ủa" which meaning is well!, Ooh!
