O.K, so next year I may take Vietnamese language (Pretty common language in our city) and I really want to self study the language, problem is I have no background info on the language and have no idea where to start. I don’t know if its a common foreign language to learn, which is why I need help finding text books that teach it well and efficiently towards the advanced level. I don’t really trust online websites, but if you’re sure it teaches Vietnamese (Particularly the Southern dialect) I would greatly appreciate it if you show me where to find it. Japanese has also interested me, mostly for songs and my interest in the language, but I can’'t really trust any of the websites I had searched up in the past. The Japanese language really interests me, but I have no idea where to start.
Lastly, I had always wondered if it’s possible to take a language course in a nearby college while in hgih school? Kind of like dual credit only for languages, I also wanted to know if it’s possible to take these community college language courses online? I appreciate the help.
