There are two major standards: one ofHanoi and one ofHo Chi Minh City. Each makes distinctions that the other does not; neither standard is preferred over the other at Wikipedia. Thecentral dialects, which make the distinctions of both, are generally represented in articles here, except if a local pronunciation is clearly more relevant.
SeeVietnamese phonology for a more thorough look at the sounds of Vietnamese.
