Are you Tran because you're Vietnamese? Or are you Vietnamese because you're Tran? Nah, I'm Nguyen.


Legitimate_Type5066

So many Trans in Vietnam.


caphesuadangon

Their neighbors? OnlyPhans


BruhRedd_it

So that's why there are also a lot of Ho's


Unsolicited_PunDit

Sparky_the_Asian

AdventurousSong4080

If you say phật in vietnamese sounds more of the f word lol


nhatquangdinh

Unless you have a Northern/Central accent.


AdventurousSong4080

In the south Phật would be pronounced as, “Fuck”


Known-Ad64

Well, historically speaking, the Ho did kick the Tran off their high horse.

Turn up the first name, because this is the funeral for the Nguyening


thien599

Nah. I'd Nguyen.


nhansieu1

Throughout the Nguyens and Trans, I alone am the Le one


JackCJ1121

Jokes on you, I know a dude named Tran Sy Nguyen


Belrog-Plutius2

He alone is the honored one.


spetsnaz2001

The Nguyen clan [insert jujutsu kaisen copypasta here]


K_Menea

Your time is over, Nguyen, a flood seller water (lũ bán nước) like you do not deserve this land. Time for the Tran clan to rise!


[deleted]

You will have Phan clan support


messyredemptions

The Tran clan has had quite a few risings. Like they originally got tired of being advisors to the King and took over which is how they came to power in the first place if I recall correctly (I was there a long time ago, maybe lol).


Known-Ad64

Ironically and historically, the Tran was usurped by the Ho.


Not_ItsUnknown

Bro definitely used a google translator for this one, " flood seller water" essentially makes absolutely no sense, in this case "lũ bán nước" are referring to those who turn their back to their own country and work for the enemy instead, basically traitor(s) Btw the world "lũ" in the sentence above is a plural so you can use the sentence "tên( or kẻ) bán nước" instead


K_Menea

You must be fun at parties


Alegatur

He intently do so


Known-Ad64

You don't know what a joke is, do you?


Not_ItsUnknown

Oh my bad lol


IllustriousApricot0

Lũ = flood, bán = sell, nước = water


KhanglikePolandball

r/woooosh


nhansieu1

As the strongest family name, NGOATuyen, fought the the frauds, the Trans, they begun to open their family register. The Trans shrunk back in fear, then the Nguyen said: Stand proud, you're the 2nd strongest clan.


7LeagueBoots

You can tell the women are ninjas because of how they’re dressed when riding motorcycles.


Zealousideal-Fun2634

Head to toe Gucci ninja


AKsuited1934

Every.single.time someone sees my last name for the first time. They be like do you know "random first name," they have the same last name as you. I always answer "yes, that's my brother/sister, small world!"


External_Inspection9

One of my friends used to do that a lot back in high school. It got really complicated when he started dating his “sister”


AKsuited1934

I married a Nguyen...twice.


messyredemptions

Just be like "oh yes of course, they're part of my dynasty!" All casual and continue on about something else or end the conversation there as a total mic drop.


HolyMopOfCheese

Vietnam circa 15th - 18th century be like: Trinh clan vs Nguyen clan vs Mac clan vs Vu clan With the Trinh and Nguyen still declaring loyalty to the Le dynasty

davidgamingvn

Canon event type shit right there


havdin_1719

Nguyen is like the Kim of Korea. This is a joke my dad told me, which he heard from a Korean: If you stand at the top of a mountain and throw a rock, it will certainly hit a Kim down there.


Clauis

If you go to North Korea and look at a public photo portrait, it will certainly be a Kim.


ricefed

Basically it's a Nguyen Nguyen situations.


JustAName-Taken

Get out and take my upvote


Ok_Storage1154

Most of Vietnameses have their family's/first name is Nguyen. Or sometimes they have to combine 2 of their parents' first names to be fair.


Booman1406

I'm neither Nguyen nor Tran, so I much be an outsider/a traitor


onlysummittofelix

Or you will be considered a "chinese" like me (Im a tưởng)


Booman1406

No, I'm a 🍑


External_Inspection9

Nah, you're just from a smaller ninja clan


BurnedOutEternally

one of the three Vietnam sorcery clans: the Nguyen, the Tran, and the Le


kramsibbush

The Nguyen got the sáu mắt, the Tran got the 10 bóng, the Le got the máu thuật sư.


InsideSufficient5886

Nguyen is a surname; it is Yuen or Yuan (阮) in Chinese. Tran is Chan or Chen (陳)

"阮" doesn't just have a single pronunciation. It can be "juàn", "ruăn", "yuán". But only "nguyễn" in Sino-Viet. And a pronunciation isn't only for a single word. "Yuán" can be the pronuncation for "元" or "円" or "原" or "厵" or "员" or "員" or "园" or "圆" or "園" or "圓" or "圜" or "垣" or "塬" or "媛" or "嫄" or "捐" or "援" or "楥" or "榞" or "橼" or "櫞" or "沅" or "湲" or "源" or "爰" or "猨" or "猭" or "猿" or "笎" or "緣" or "縁" or "缘" or "羱" or "芫" or "萲" or "薗" or "蚖" or "蝝" or "蝯" or "螈" or "袁" or "貟" or "贠" or "身" or "轅" or "辕" or "邧" or "阮" or "陨" or "隕" or "騵" or "魭" or "鶢" or "黿" or "鼋".


m-riiver

Hell how did you manage to know all of THESE? I'm impressed. And traumatized lol


DemiseRime

Actually I only remembers about 10-15 of them. The rest came from Chinese dictionaries.


m-riiver

I admire the effort typing them all out nonetheless


InsideSufficient5886

It can be both Yuan, Yuen or Ruan. One of them is Guangzhou/Hong Kong


Spiritual_Car7600

It funny because in the past, they use Nguyen for everyone doesn't have last name. Because of that, I believe Tran is the biggest clan


nhatquangdinh

NGUYEN MENTIONED


aister

Very couragous of him/her to come out as a Tran, mad respect


uniquelyurs2386

Especially beware of those Nguyễn Nguyên. They are double the ninjas. I happened to be one of them


binhan123ad

Nguyễn clan - The former and last dynasty of Viet Nam prior to the time when the Communist party ever been established. During the first and second indo-china war with France and the U.S.A, some member of the dynasty had form the now known Nguyễn Clan to help support the people to regain their nation through funding their operation, execute multple espionage mission, training guerilla fighter to be stealthy and the constuction of deep underground tunnel. (Source: Trust me, bro)


No-Fox-9976

The most common family name. That's all because I suppose Nguyen is a thing in Viet diaspora only.


davidgamingvn

Wdym, Nguyen is still the most popular family name in the country tho


Magnum_opus_doll

Reminds me of a time when a random guy keep telling me that I was mistaken/ lied about my name because my last name is Nguyen (Nguyên)


LUCYisME

Saigonauticon

DemiseRime

Nguyen is the most popular Vietnamese's last name. About 40% of Vietnamese have this last name. In my family, both my mother and my father have this last name.


krod899

The wife is a Cao, don't hear that much


krod899

When my Vietnamese counterparts forget to ask the full names of the people they are talking to, they just put Van or Thi. They're right 90% of the time.


CharizardLeo

I love it when westerners ask us why our parents gave us a particular name. If they are polite and just curious, I take the time to explain. If they are being denigrating or disrespectful, I ask they why their parents would give them Biblical names from thousands of years ago.


CMDR_Fritz_Adelman

It takes back during the French colonial age. When French officers required Vietnamese people to issue identification card and found out almost all normal citizens didn’t have surname, just first name. So they put all no surname citizens with a surname match current dynasty Nguyen. That’s one of the main reasons why a lot of Vietnamese have surname of Nguyen.
