Examples

“They were buried in a gravesite near Kai Tak, alongside other Vietnamese who hadn’t made it safely to shore.”
“The Vietnamese I own is the one you gave me, the one whose diction and syntax reach only the second-grade level.”
“If the idea of “exotic” and complex languages with features you’ve never imagined thrills you, I guarantee you’ll get more out of studying Navajo, American Sign Language, Kikuyu, Vietnamese, Cree, Cantonese, Quechua, or Nuuchahnnulth than Quenya, Klingon, or attempting to make your own.”
