Susan is a teacher from London who comes to a small town in Viet Nam to teach English. She has her first
lesson today and is very impressed by one of her students – Lien. Lien speaks English very well and she is
very active in the class. Later that day, Susan runs into Lien in the corridor. Susan wants to compliment Lien
and says, “Lien, your English is excellent!”. And Lien answers, “No, it’s very bad.” Susan wants to assure
Lien so she confirms, “Yes, your English is very good!” To Susan’s surprise, Lien repeats quietly, “No, it’s
very bad.” Susan fells rather confused and she doesn’t know why Lien responds to her this way.
=> Communication breakdown: cultural differences
In Viet Nam, it is typical to deny compliments you receive. This is a way to show your modesty. However,
in Western cultures, people who give compliments often expect you to take them, and denial of
compliments, especially if it is repeated, may be rude and make the other person feel uncomfortable. In this
situation, Lien may just politely thank her teacher.
