she replied "Chuc ngu ngon nhe! ;-) E cung xin loi kg biet noi tieng anh nha"

Anyone able to translate? My guess is she is saying good night as well and perhaps something like no need to say sorry for not being able to speak? I'm just guessing here

Dang, really wish I could speak the language now!
Mayb I can help abit.. not perfect though..

She said: 'wish you good night ah.. I am also sorry I don't know how to speak English'

the nhe/nha are similar to ahs and las that we add in our Singlishful sentences..

For your msg, you may wanna write like this. Chuc em ngu ngon. Em dep qua/em dep nhieu lam. Xin loi, anh khong biet noi tieng viet.

Please don't flame me ah.. Xiao di here just a beginner in learning their language.. Correct me if I m wrong, then i will learn more

Rgds,
vlover
