Một sự hiểu lầm hài hước ở Hà Nội
I'm from South of Vietnam and recently came to Ha Noi for the first time on a trip.
While I was standing on the sidewalk waiting to by some stuff, a lady walked by and said: "I need your help for a moment" and then kept going.
I thought she really needed my help with something, wondering: "what did she need help with?". So I stood there blankly. I even thought about running after her to help.
But finally, it turned out that "need your help" here actually just meant: "excuse me! Please let me pass".😁😁😁
Please
1 sự hiểu lầm buồn cười ở Hà Nội .
Mình ở miền Nam ra Hà Nội chơi lần đầu. Đang đứng ở vỉa hè đợi mua đồ thì có một chị đi qua nói: “Chị nhờ tí” rồi đi luôn.
Mình tưởng chị nhờ giúp gì thật nên đứng ngẩn ra, trong đầu nghĩ: “Ủa, chị cần mình giúp gì ta?”. Còn định chạy theo để hỏi giúp nữa cơ.
Cuối cùng mới biết, “nhờ tí” ở đây chỉ có nghĩa là “cho chị qua với” thôi 😅.

To "keep going" is vague, it can mean to keep doing almost any action. I changed it to walking, because it otherwise might be understood that she kept speaking
