If you speak Thai ไทย, how much vocabulary would you 'get for free' learning Vietnamese Tiếng Việt? How close are the sounds and grammar?
In this clip, I move away from Chinese Sinitic influences in modern Vietnamese and look at words that share common origins from an array of different language families including Mon-Khmer Austroasiatic, Malay / Indonesian Austronesian, Thai / Lao / Zhuang Tai-Kradai and of course Middle Chinese.
By triangulating sound-shifts, spelling, tones and even the Nôm 喃 Characters, by the end of the clip, you should be able to internalise a lot of new vocabulary if you speak one or more languages from any of these families.

If you are learning a tonal language like Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, Lao or Burmese, or a pitch accent language like Japanese - or even if you're a native speaker, you need to set 80mins aside and take my Free Tones and Pitch Accent Masterclass - by the end of it you will not only be able to hear the tones in ANY tonal language, but have new skills in being able to faithfully reproduce them and set up an internal self-correction system that kicks in subconsciously when you get something wrong:
