Contrastive analysis reveals cultural differences in the word 'nào' in Vietnamese and modern Chinese usage.
This paper presents the characteristics of the Vietnamese word “nào” from a functional-pragmatic perspective. It examines the use of this word in Tô Hoài's The Adventures of a Cricket and compares it with its translation into modern Chinese in the corresponding translated work. Using a contrastive and descriptive analysis, the study aims to clarify the pragmatic functions and cultural differences of the word “nào” as expressed in both Vietnamese and Chinese.
