Wow, you’re right.

I never noticed (even while studying the basics myself) that syllables are space-separated.

I always saw the words (e.g. “thanh pho” = city - don’t have the keyboard on my phone) as independent units. Didn’t even recognize the spaces.

Amazing how something can be right in front of you without noticing it.

So much makes sense now. Thanks again.
