Mi, N.T. (2012). Preferred language used by British and Vietnamese hosts of television programmes. A Bachelor’s Thesis submitted to Vietnam National University, University of Foreign Languages and International Studies.

Using language, the hosts play the representative role and convey the message of the programmes.

For the accomplishments of these purposes, the study carried out in the light of intercultural communication and is based on the authentic data collected. The findings of the study provide evidence that the languages used by British and Vietnamese hosts have certain similarities and differences. Each of the two languages pertains to its culture and reflects the essential values of the society.
