Well, Vietnamese is similar to southern Chinese dialects in terms of grammar. The sentence structure is fairly straight forward. Verb tenses are achieved via context and, therefore, require folks to pay attention to what they are reading or to what they or others are saying. The added bonus is that they use a latin alphabet! Here is an example of tiếng việt.

Hmm... looks interesting - want a student? :D

You have to pay attention with Japanese, too.. especially with the kanji! If you write it wrong, you can change the sentence rather drastically.. Hehe. With Romanji, it's a bit easier.. but a silly typo can also change the meaning >:D I, personally, like scribbling things in hiragana. Fufufu >:^>
