Syntax

VIQR uses the following convention:

Diacritical Marks in VIQR
Diacritical mark Typed character Examples
trăng (breve) ( a( → ă
(circumflex) ^ a^ → â
móc (horn) + o+ → ơ
huyền (grave) ` a` → à
sắc (acute) ' a' → á
hỏi (hook) ? a? →
ngã (tilde) ~ a~ → ã
nặng (dot below) . a. →

VIQR uses DD or Dd for the Vietnamese letter Đ, and dd for the Vietnamese letter đ. To type certain punctuation marks (namely, the period, question mark, apostrophe, forward slash, opening parenthesis, or tilde) directly after most Vietnamese words, a backslash (\) must be typed directly before the punctuation mark, so that it will not be interpreted as a diacritical mark. For example:

O^ng te^n gi`\? To^i te^n la` Ted\dy Thu.y\.
Ông tên gì? Tôi tên là Teddy Thụy.
What is your name ? My name is Teddy Thuy.
