Side question: Why do people buy baguettes? Do they make sandwiches with them? How do you even make a sandwich from them? How are you meant to beat a baguette???

One word: Bánh mì
Regarding your main question: you don’t fit a square in a round hole.
That’s two words.
…i don’t know, man: vietnamese writes all syllables as separate words but they still cognate as a single lexical unit…
Well lookee here fellas, it looks like we got a fancy pants that can count to 2!
Mama always said, “If you can’t count to two, you’ll never do.”
I mean… If that’s what you want 🤷♂️

I got in trouble once for pronouncing it correctly and people thought I was just being lewd 😭
I love ordering a bánh mì with pho and dipping it.
If you have a Viet restaurant that serves things other than phó and noodles, check out a dish called “Bánh mì bò kho” - it’s a spicy beef curry dish, chunks of meat, onions, potatoes and broth that comes with the bánh mì baguette to dip.

That sounds fantastic. I checked our usual suspects but none have that on the menu. Not surprised, because if I had seen it I definitely would have ordered it by now.
