Vietnamese Language

description: >
  Vietnamese language reference layer — loaded on demand by other skills, pipelines,
  and agents. 17 reference files covering: platform-specific cultural dynamics
  (Facebook/TikTok/Instagram/LinkedIn/Zalo/YouTube/Twitter-X/Threads), formal document
  conventions, press release structure, viral content patterns, educational content norms,
  SEO/diacritic strategy, regional dialects, Gen Z slang taxonomy, advertising cultural
  frameworks, and email/messaging conventions. Does NOT duplicate content-creator/languages/vi.md
  (power words, hooks, CTAs, tone registers), marketing suite (funnel strategy, KPIs, ad
  templates), or proofreader/SKILL.md (grammar rules, tone mark errors). Load this when the
  task requires deep Vietnamese cultural/linguistic context beyond surface-level platform specs.

# Vietnamese Language Knowledge Base

Pure reference layer. No workflows, no agents, no presets — just knowledge files that other skills consume on demand.

## Boundaries

**Already covered — do NOT load these reference files if what you need is:**
- Power words, hook templates, CTAs, 4 tone registers, diacritic/Unicode rules, platform surface conventions → `content-creator/languages/vi.md`
- Ad copy structure (6 variants), TOFU/MOFU/BOFU templates, compliance checklist → `marketing/05-copy-quang-cao/`
- Email sequence strategy, automation, KPIs → `marketing/14-email-marketing/`
- Grammar rules, tone mark errors, code-switching → `proofreader/SKILL.md`
- Active VN editing (de-template prose, translationese cleanup, deep grammar check, style consistency) → `humanizer-vi`, `translationese-cleaner-vi`, `grammar-checker-vi`, `style-guide-vi`
- Platform format specs (character limits, aspect ratios, hashtag counts) → `content-creator/references/platforms.md`

**This skill fills the gap for:** deep platform cultural dynamics, formal/legal/press Vietnamese, viral pattern mechanics, SEO diacritic strategy, regional dialects, Gen Z slang formation patterns, advertising cultural values framework, and email/messaging register conventions.

## Integration Points

These existing skills should cross-reference this skill:

- **`content-creator`** with `language=vi`: supplements `vi.md` with platform deep-dives when the brief specifies Zalo OA, LinkedIn VN, YouTube VN, or Twitter/X VN (platforms not covered in vi.md)
- **`marketing/05-copy-quang-cao`**: load `advertising-copywriting.md` for Tết campaign copy or health/beauty copy requiring Bộ Y Tế compliance language
- **`marketing/14-email-marketing`**: load `email-messaging.md` for Zalo OA broadcast conventions and Vietnamese newsletter register
- **`marketing/04-script-video`**: load `gen-z-slang.md` when target audience is under 25 and brief requires authentic slang
- **`proofreader`**: load `formal-documents.md` when proofreading government/legal documents; load `press-releases.md` when proofreading thông cáo báo chí

## Loading Protocol

1. Check the routing table above for your current task
2. Load only the matching reference file(s) — never load all 17
3. If your task spans multiple areas (e.g., Tết TikTok campaign for Gen Z), load the relevant files (tiktok.md + viral-content.md + gen-z-slang.md)
4. Cite which reference file(s) you loaded in your output so downstream agents know what was consulted
