I was told that Chinese language was widely used in Vietnam 30 years ago and even up until now there are some words derived from Chinese. Besides, I saw many Chinese customs still taking place in Vietnam. Like in the Chinese New Year, the first day is to visit your parents or the closet relatives. Then the 3rd day is supposed not for any visit - called "red mouth". Then the 7th day is everybody's birthday. The 15th day is the rounding up of Chinese New Year. They call it as Lunar New Year - same as Korea.
OK, this is quite easy to guess if you can speak Mandarin "Ho'ang Ty". Hint: a person in the ancient time of China.

Wow this is hard. So is "Ho" the last name of this person?
No, Stella, Ho'ang is one word. My hint would be this is a very powerful word.
Ok, these two words mean "King" (皇帝). Then the below words mean "see you again".
