5-YEAR-OLD VIETNAMESE BOY SPEAKS PERFECT ENGLISH BUT NOT VIETNAMESE
Le Nguyen Bao Trung, aka ‘Bin’, is a 5-year-old Vietnamese boy who reportedly spoke his very first words in English despite never having come into contact with the language. Today, Bin speaks and reads perfectly in English, but is only just learning Vietnamese so he can communicate with his mother.

2,709,918 Americans served in Vietnam — 9.7% of their generation. 90% were white. The usual combat tour was one year. 58,148 were killed, 304,000 wounded, and of them, 75,000 stayed severely disabled

Born in Dong Van village, in Vietnam’s Ha Tinh province [up in NORTH Vietnam! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H%C3%A0_T%C4%A9nh_Province], Bin said his first word when he was almost two years old. You could say he took a while, but no one knows if that was when he said his first word, it was just when people noticed it.
His mother, Le Thi Lien, recalls that the boy kept pointing at a calendar and saying ‘Eleven’. She didn’t speak any English and mistook the word for mere babbling, but Bin kept saying it, so she asked her older daughter about it and learned that it meant “11” in English. She went back to the calendar and saw that it did in fact show the 11th of the month. But that was only the beginning of this unusual story.
Le Thi Lien recently told Vietnamese reporters that she was so amazed by Bin’s ability to recognize and pronounce 11 in English that she took the calendar and showed him other numbers to see if he recognized them. To her surprise, the toddler recognised and pronounced all the numbers from 1 to 30 in perfect English.
After that, she went out and bought him the English alphabet, as well as coloring books and children’s exercise books in English. Today, at age 5, Bin can read in English, can name the English term for virtually any item, but is only learning to speak Vietnamese.
In her interview with Vietnamese media, Bin’s mother could barely hold back her tears when asked how she communicated with her son. She didn’t speak any English and he didn’t speak Vietnamese, so in the beginning all they had was sign language.
“I do not understand, I would shake my head and say ‘I don’t know,’” the woman said. But she couldn’t let things stand, so she started learning English. Every night, despite coming home tired from work, Le went online and took basic English lessons, wrestling with the different grammar, pronunciation and even letters. It took a while, but she was eventually able to communicate with him.
I know two outright white nationalists (becoming this late in life, however) who have married East Asian women, which I find incomprehensible, and I must say both are very immature, young souls who are heedless of all advice.
Sometimes a woman who suffers rape or other brutality wants to come back as a man — and gets her wish.
I can only speculate, but perhaps the Vietnamese boy was an American GI who committed atrocities on the Vietnamese, such as My Lai, or dropped napalm and burned Vietnamese alive….or coated their jungles with toxic Agent Orange from the Jew company Monsanto…

…and this soul was told he could atone for some really serious crimes by becoming Vietnamese himself and seeing their humanity.
Though not white, they and we all want similar things: love, meaning, purpose; food and shelter; friends, family, and healthy children; and to have a few laughs along the way. 😉
Some of us even want to transcend this hellish life — and find growth, wisdom, enlightenment, joy, purpose and peace.
